Once upon a time there was a young boy who found it extremely difficult to stand on his two feet. The mother was informed about the abnormality of her youngest son, the two legs were not of the same length and the elbow of the boy’s right arm was present completely apposite to every other normal human elbow i.e 90 degree apart.

One day when the poor kid was struggling to attain the balance on his two feet, his elder brother threw him a ball. To every one’s amazement; the boy didn’t only hold on to the ball but was able to keep the balance on his two feet.

The boy grew up to be the fastest bowler of all time and one of the most talented one as well. They named him the Rawalpindi Express.

When Shoaib left for India, he was facing a 5 year ban on allegations that are as phony as the man who is in charge of the PCB these days (Naseem Ashraf). Even after his arrival, the skipper of his team decided to make him sit on the bench for two matches. Tonight his team “Kolkatta Knight Riders” was playing their most crucial match of the tournament. It was a do or die situation with only 130 runs to defend on a good batting pitch. But today the fate was on his side for a change. 4/11 and the Knight Riders booked the ticket for the victory ride.

Okay I am exaggerating a bit :P Delhi Dare Devilz fought back, but after loosing some early wickets and players like Sehwag and Gamhir the poor total of 130 became quite hard to get.

I loved the sight when Ganguly hugged Shoaib-it happens only in IPL :)
I thought I would support Kolkata but I realised that in spite of many Delhiites representing the Knight Riders the name Delhi Daredevils made me support Mcgrath over Shoaib.Shoaib took the match away from us.
//Even after his arrival, the skipper of his team decided to make him sit on the bench for two matches// I believe he wasn’t match fit was the reason given.

@Shahrza
Yep! its cricket :)

@Pr3rna
How can you not support someone who has the ability to change the course of the game :)
Its nice to see that team members and officials are happy for the guy and supporting him. And yes its happening in IPL :)

@Nikki
Yes its a true story indeed. As a matter of fact a very famous one. Nearly everyone who has followed Shoaib and cricket are aware of this fact :)

I was glad to see him back into action & definitely his bowling spell changed the coarse of the match..the way he got Sehwag out was heartwarming & his bowling was hostile like its always been when he’s on song.
