Arun Lal’s lullaby

Arun Lal is on air. The volume’s half way down. The brightest part of the match is ONGC red ‘n yellow fast-food chain gear. Virat Kohli and Gautam Gambhir at the crease. Arun Lal continues to talk to himself. His co-commentator is asleep. Soon, so will I. For an uninterrupted nap intend to leave Lal’s lullaby on. If you thought one-day cricket was boring, try adding Lal to it. It becomes no-day cricket. The sun sets. The stars come out. And you go to sleep.

:-) LOL....tad unfair on one of the great entertainers in the game..have you forgotten the numerous gems he's contributed ? My fav's probably during the Kanpur ODI in the 2005 Ind-Pak series when Afridi wreaked pure devasatation. AL (choking) : " but but but...i FAIL to understand the Indian TACTICS here...and oh my god that's ANOTHER boundary"...my own tactic was to bring the box of tissues closer to the TV set....ah such feelings ! Esp on hid part ! :-)

One of the best spoofs I read almost a year and half ago. It's hillarious.
