(July 5th - July 11th)

A poem on the Indian maestro Sachin Tendulkar by my friend KUNAL DASGUPTA :

100-DULKAR

He looked like an artist working,

Like a wolf in the woods lurking,

He was caressing the red mass,

As the others ran towards the ropes ! Alas !

He came up and hit out,

His rivals were in a bout,

He was a genius showing his touch,

There was nothing others could do, not much !

He then came down the mat,

And gave the chucker the TIT for TAT,

As he had bounced the ball to high

What a daft man ! So very nigh !

He lashed out and made his mark,

Success wsa a bolt in the dark !

He was thumping on the opposition,

The rivals were in a hopeless position !

He made his century in 92 balls !

And made sure about all his calls,

Stopping him was almost an after-thought,

And to negative tactics did they sought !

A born stroke-maker that he was,

His restlessness must hve been the cause,

As he came down the track and did loft,

Boycott was unhappy, he was caught !

As he walked back making the errand,

I knew there walked the legend !

He took out the starred helmet, blue in colour,

The ball must've been a little fuller !!

The crowd stood up to the litle master,

And need I mention the MASTER BLASTER !?

In cricket , he is a power-can,

SACHIN !!! He's the man !!!
