IPL drama comes to an end.
Naai Segar Snaps A Few Key Points From The Series…
In a daring move which surpassed his previous daring moves, IPL chairman Lalit Modi was caught on camera trying to correct KXP team co-owner and Badri Narayanan’s long time interest, Preity Zinta. (Kings Eleven Punjab should be called KEP and not KXP, chipped in Krishna Devan unnecessarily)
What caught everyone by surprise was the fact that Modi, who tried hard to get close to Preity during the player auctions and subsequent press conferences, was seen dancing whenever one of the KXP players hit the ball to the boundary, in a possible attempt to correct Preity Zinta. He clapped her on her shoulders everytime he said a mokka comedy to her, hinting to the viewers (and Ness Wadia ) that he was hitting on her.
Lalit Modi trying hard to catch Preity’s shoulder, but ended up correcting Ness Wadia instead. Vijay Mallya seen desperately searching for a tissue to wipe the blood in his ears.
Asked for his opinion on this new found development, Krishna Devan began by expressing his contempt for Modi and how a gentleman’s game had now turned out to be a mere spectacle with no respect for bowlers. We will not publish both the views here as the former is too liberal and the latter can be found somewhere in last week’s Sportstar.
What flabbergasted most of us was Kris Srikanth trying out the same thing on film star and Badri Narayanan’s long time interest Nayanthara. When asked about this apparent confict of interests, Badri simply replied “Adhu pona maasam…” , for which only “sports” columnist Krishna Devan reacted by doing something, which he later clarified as laughter and everyone breathed in relief.
Ofcourse, now that the whole IPL drama has come to an end, Balaji hopes to turn to his newly found interest in Euro cup, which he randomly found on Wikipedia. He was seen mumbling during the finals that he would have bowled a better line than the one by the guy with the eerily same name on TV. That the outcome would have been no different was his argument, which we grudgingly agreed. Ofcourse, we also used some choicest swear words on Balaji and our sports columnist joined in, oblivious to the fact that he was abusing himself.
The commentator of the season award went to Arun Lal for his intelligent inputs throughout the season. The highlight was when Shane Watson ran away from him during the final when he was confronted by the man in a purple kurta. “He he, I thought he was one of those cheergirls”, he remarked with a wink. His co commentator Ramiz Raja was not available for comment as he had already lapsed into a coma.
Badri summed up the entire season as a roaring success – ” :%#*#(@$ match machi” were his precise words. He soon returned to his fervent preparation for the civil service exam by reading this article of national importance. He was later seen discussing this with Columnist and fellow UPSC participant Balaji, who had a different take on the whole issue.
We wish them all the best.
