I am so excited. I know someone who knows the cricket deity that is Sehwag. Now I know it is a couple of degrees of separation but my fellow teacher Peter Ingram (Pingers) can be clearly seen communing with the great one. How many of you readers of this sad blog can claim that degree of contact? Any one who might have doubted Sehwag's divine power need only have watched him destroy the NZ attack while all around him crumbled.
The image seems to suggest Pingers is giving Sehwag some pointers, but I am sure he is just trying to explain the unexplainable - why Watling and Guptil are preferred as openers!
Five days without a post and I bet no one even noticed!
The enforced lay off was due to trouble with my wireless connection but I don't want to bore any one with technicalities, especially ones I don't understand myself.
What better way to get back into the swing of things than an image of the great Sehwag practicing a shot only he could play.
The atheists and agnostics will tell you that you can't be a god and not be infallible. The faithful will tell you that sometimes things happen for reasons beyond our understanding. Jeetan Patel will tell you he and his mates are bloody happy to have that wicket.
I don't want to doubt any one's divinity but it seems to me a little power directed towards the heavens might just help VS stay at the crease longer and gather more followers.
Over two thousand posts and not a single conviction!
Eh?
Most cricket blogs are about the banter. This one aims to be brief on comment but strong on images. The images are sourced from many places and are subject to a tweak or two by Photoshop. If there is one you like feel free to click, enlarge and print.
