Group Therapy Session 2: The Test Series
So far so good. Looks like the BC public took the mental beating like a MAN!
But alas! we still have the T-20 and the Test series to go!
Just to prepare you folks for all the nasty possibilities and Test records here is a list of things that could go wrong:
1. Ramdin eating us alive: In every tour we focus on the big stars but then get screwed by the unknowns. We fear Ajmal but get done by Abdur Rehman.. or fear Hayden but Gillespie scores a double.. or we fear Varun Aron but give a free pass to Stuart Binny. Ultimately the point is Ramdin has our number.. just like the Samaraweeras of yesteryear. So don't be shocked if WI are 5 down and then Ramdin scores a triple.
2. Razzak as our spin hope: Following the trail of retarded selections i see a strong probability that Razzak will feature in the Test series and mesmerize the batsman with his leg stump darts.
3. Collapso: yes Zeeshan! it is a new word! inspired by Calypso of the Caribbean. It basically refers to the pack of cards that is our top order. If Shamsur, Kayes, Nasir, Tamim, Ryad is in the lineup then expect to lose wickets at the same frequency that a diarrhea patient goes to the bathroom. Kindly note that if you are a diarrhea patient then please install a tv in the bathroom because otherwise you might miss the entire bd batting innings.
4. Captain's Vengeance: Captain hyper emotional conservative Rahim is still in charge. This means that taking basic decisions will seem more challenging than Quantum Physics. While He gives us hope in batting but it also means that if West Indies bat first someone from the bowling line up will have to be the designated donkey for the day. This poor chap will have to bowl 20 overs minimum and 50 overs if he is foolish enough to take a wicket. I can hear Razzak laughing because he won't get any.

This is why I love BC regardless of how terrible the cricket of this country is going. The humor is just priceless.

All 3 of our 500+ totals came after fielding for a day and half and watching the oppossition rack up scores of 537-4 dec, 570-4 dec, and 469 all out. Maybe Mushy is going for 4 in a row?

I blame it on India. If they didn't support our claim for test status we wouldn't be in this dire situation today. They have done it purposefully to embarrass us on world stage day in day out. Shame on you India!

Collapso struck big time apart from Shamsu who probably got lucky. The designated donkey was Taijul who bowled 47 overs in one innings.

This must be the darkest year ever since we got our Test status.
