Dear Dada

According to SRK dancing time aint arrived and according to Dada they have had enough “Dancing Around” for the past 2 years. After halting the Chargers “Charge” and giving the RCB a “Royal” beating Dada seems to be in a no nonsense mood till his team is safely through to the final stages. According to SRK KKR has promises to keep but then is it the promises that is driving KKR ? They drove right into the wall in the 1^st edition and all around during the 2^nd , much due to a “Buchananism” drive shaft. The real force to drive them was treated as a mere outsider last year but then on Friday night, though, it was time for the Dada-show again.

The start was a “knightmare”, Dada fished once again and even though Oawis and Angelo managed to put up 160 Gilchrist looked to finish the match in double quick time. Despair for everyone in KKR as all the smiles vanished and it was time enough for Saurav to put back his Dada mask. Suddenly as if ordering school boys around his arms flailed like a windmill, the voice rose above the din and the brows burrowed in determination he moved his resources with the skill and panache of a hardened general and then from the very dins of despair he stopped the Chargers charge 13 runs far from victory. Dada was back and along with him was his “Dadagiri”, as usual he got fined for slow overate and voicing his dissent but then who cared. The 1^st match of the 3^rd edition of IPL and Dada ensured a purely stellar show. As usual he did not do much himself restricting himself only to the ordering around but the that is him, mesmerically brilliant in doing so. Next match in home turf and for a change Eden’s lights didn’t fail and Dada made mincemeat out of Jumbo's RCB.

The match looked KKR's right from the beginning. Robin Utthapa looked as useless as he was last year, Eoin Morgan just realized why the British should refrain from playing the “Reverse Sweep” especially in Edens and a particular “Dhael Ston” got hammered by A certain Manoj Tiwari who until a few days ago was more looking like a Halwai from Bangalore' s Tewari brothers. While Hodge helped himself to a 50, Dada found himself totally unable to rotate the strike when suddenly he rolled back the years and sent “Ston” into the stands with the shot of the match.

While SRK wont be dancing Anandabazar Patrika & The Telegraph for certain would as these two wins would mean more articles on our beloved Dada which in turn would mean more sales. Dada even after remaining out of top flight cricket is still an enigma, the proof of which came when even after the numerous attempts of the DJ at Edens to get the crowd to chant “Korbo Lorbo Jeetbo Re” all they did chant was “Dada, Dada”. The crowd I guess knows that their beloved Dada does not believe in “Korbo Lorbo Jeetbo Re”, for him its “Bolbo, Korbi Jeetbi Re” (Do only as I say and you shall win).

So Thank You Dada and hope later in the series we get a glimpse of how God would play an Off Drive
