The Quirky Poem
By Sudeep Sonawane*
Indian cricket in South Africa 2022
Rahane was a batsman from Mumbai,
Runs soon dried up for the Mulund boy.
As coach Dravid frowned in Cape Town,
Cold sweat formed on the batter’s crown.
Captain Kohli pulled out at Jo’burg,
And urged his batters to surge.
The boy took the call to whack the ball,
And thwacked the Proteas over the wall!
