Team Anthem for the Cup

Blowing Sree, Bhajji Brother, Dhoni Lion and Dada the King
by Indra Sengupta on Feb 21, 2007 07:52 PM | Hide replies



Great dancer Sree the speedster
Blow the wickets away in the wind;
Bhajji the brother;
Turn ninety degree
Kill the opposition.
Dhoni the Lion;
Looks like so-
Roar them to death,

and now the song which Bhajji,Dhoni, Yuvi and Sree sing
The anthem of the Team;
All eleven players singing-
Chappel clapping on the beat and appreciating from a distance;
Ha Ha.

The Comeback King


The King comes back, the comeback King;
They said the sun has lost its light,
Cricket is a song, sing all sing;
Tyger Tyger burning bright in the forests of the night.
Boundaries? Nations??
Who cares? Visions of tomorrow cross expectations.
Barriers of parochial pieces of branding the genius,
In small petty misimagination!
Slap Dada slap!
Scrub and rub your bat on
Their nose till they bleed.
Dada comeback
Come back Dada the King.
Shine Dada shine
Dada shine you bright
On the mountain top, the sea
In the meadows, on the field.
Shame Dada shame
Shame on those buffoons
Who your fame cannot digest.
Make them a bundle,
Put in a sack
Hit it hard, hit them tight;
Send them forever out of sight.

Dravid contributied 2075 runs average 105.11 in 21 tests which team won under gnaguly%u2019s capatiancy . Almost 24% of total runs by a single batsman is record..
WRITE A POEM ABOUT DRAVID'S CONTRIBUTIONS TO GANGULY'S SUCCESS

write a poem about team india anthem is sung by all citizens not only pm or prsd.
Write a poem about the contribution of dravid sachin laxman kumble and sewag for the success of ganguly captaincy. more than ganguly's perfornace other player contributied. give them credit. team reached WC 03 final b'cuz sachin played brilliently won MOS and best batsman award not b'cuz of ganguly's captaincy or not b'cuz as u put it agression leadership quality. atleast one players had to play major role and the player desered the credit not captain just b'cuz he is leading team.

This is Mr. Sengupta's "National Anthem". This is his definition of "desh bhakti" (desh bhakti = Dada bhakti). The names of the other players have been included grudgingly after the receiving barrage of criticism and does not come from his heart.

Sengupta is a frog living in a well. For him his well is the world.

Whosoever is the Captain;
Ganguly is the rallying point.
He is the real leader.
See how a demoralised and losing side comes to life as Ganguly comes in.
How Yuvraj and Dhoni drenches him in lemonade shower.
So sing in praise of Dada;
Other things will automatically follow.

somnath chaterji, buddadev, dalmiay brinada karat lalu, paswan, atawale we are mps sang the the song of dada and put the pressure on selection commiteee to elect the politician ganguly and media chelas like moron jadeja (proven guilty for match fixing), sanjay jah arun lal all repeating one song dada back dada back so called tiger entered from the backdoor, hit what ??scoring runs to cement place for WC. what about youngesterslike sreesant, irfan and dinesh karthik won moms and match for team in SA but media never highlight their effort
I AM DADA I SHOWCASED MY POLITICIANS SUPPORT SO MEDIA IS WITH ME. MAKE A PUSSY CAT TO A TIGER. THANKS TO ALL BANGOS SUPPORTING DADA BUT SACHIN IS GREAT B'CUZ HE NEVER MAKE NOISE EVEN HE WON MOM AND MOS..
KUMLBE IS RANKED III IN ICC RANKING BUT NEVER GO TO MEDIA OR NO COMPLAINTS OR CONTRAVERSISS
VVS LAXMAN A CLASSY PLAYER NEVER USE POLITICIANS OR MEDIA FOR BENEFIT TO GET BACKDOOR ENTRY. DRAVID GIVEN SO MUCH TO TEAM AND DADA SUCCESS IS DUBBED AS PUPPET/SPINELESS BUT NEVER GOES TO MEDIA.. THESE PLAYERS BELIEVE IN PERFORMING ON THE FIELD. DADA GOT MOS AFTER SIX YEARS GREAT ACHIEVEMENT. DRAVID AFTER BECOMING CAPTAIN WITHIN 8 GOT MOM AND MOS THAT TOO ON FOREIGN SOIL dhoni playing well ranked II in Icc odi ranking but no noise about this yongster. Yuvi and robin played so well
BUT I SURE I AM DADA AND NOBODY WILL BECOME DADA LIKE ME ALWAYS DREAM DREAM THAT EVERYBODY IS SINGING DDADAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
BUT NOT TURE TEAM INDIA CONSISTS OF OTHER TEN PLAYERS AND ALL TEN PLAYERS HAVE THEIR OWN FANS SUPPORTES. SUPPORT TEAM SUPPORT ONLY DADA IS AN INSULT TO DADADAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Blinds disapproving a masterpiece painting?

Who agrees with whose views on Sourav?
Good or bad?
The tune was lost from the orchestra in his absence.
See it back again, young brigade jumping and spreading sparkling lemonade on him when he wins the MOS award.
Some jealous guys still argue.
You climb the nearest lamp post high,
Hang from there and spread venom against Dada,
And bring some comic relief for us.
Or else better get lost sweet Suman.

dravid is doing good job as capttain shared credit of victory with other players even though media is unfair to him
by Suman Bhat on Feb 21, 2007 01:20 PM  | Hide replies

ODI records of Ganguly as captain
Matches147 won76 lost 66 drawn 4

Dravid's record as a captian
Matches 62 won32 lost 26 drawn 4

Test Matches Captaincy
plyd---won--lost---drawn
Ganguly 2000-06 49 21 13 15
R. Dravid - 20 6 6 8
Azharuddin1989-99 47 14 14 19
Tendulkar1996-2000 25 4 9 12
Team India played one triangular series under dravid%u2019s leadership but lost DLF cup while team play 9 traingular series in 5 yrs under ganguly as captaint, won 2 lost 5 and 2 series drawn.
Team went to WC final under ganguyly but b%u2019cuz of superb batting by sachin more than ganguly%u2019s captaincy or aggression. Sachin played well against Pakistan won match to lead team to semis. Why not ppl / media did not give credit to sachin???

Ganguly was captain for 5 yrs( ganguly had dalmiya%u2019s to support in bcci throughtout his career and media is alwyas with ganguly) and dravid for 1 1/2 year Not only media is unfair to dravid, sachin with strong mumbi lobby and ganguly with his polittician's influence are breathing on the neck of dravid for fighting to regain captaincy back.

Odi batting average for dravid as captian is better than his normal one, won 1 out of 22 in first year and lost12 out 17, 3 win and team did not loose any odi series under dravid%u2019s captaincy but humiliated defeat in WI, SA but won in Pakistan.
Dravid captancy is recongised by ICC for his success in 1 yr his name was shortlisted for ICC captain of year award along with vaghun, ponting, mahila also won cap for ICC test team captian. Ganguly won MOS after six years, wheile dravid won MOS, MOM (after being captain just within 8 months in WI without ganguly and tendulkar..Dravid won test matches in multan, WI, SA, proved he is classic captain like wadekar and kapildev Dravid supported youngersters like robin, KKD, Sreesant, raina, munaf the ganguly supported kaif, yuvi, herbajan, irfan.. When dravid supported Veeru for WC, he was dubbed as arrogant but ganguly support is praised as inspiring. Druing ganguly 's captaincy kumble and laxman were out odi team b'cuz of both weree not in good books of ganguly even after good performance. Gnaguly also responsible for closing the int%u2019l careera for hemang badani, Akash chopra, Ajay ratra, parthiv patel, S ramesh, S S das, dinesh mongia some youngsters In last tour of ZIb ind won under gangul%u2019s captaincy - even dravid was captian India would have won
Even Ind won many test under ganguly , team had many humiliated defeat against aussies, kiwis, Pakistan WI And in SA team India did not win seires in any time irrespective of players and cpatian. In SA gnaguly scored more runs but it was Sreesant , KKD, and irfan won the MOMs. And wasim jafer and laxman batted well Druing odi series against WI it was dravid scored highest nos. runs.

Team won many tests under Ganguly%u2019s leadership b%u2019cuz of contributions of dravid, sachin, laxman, kumble and sewag. Victory was possible b%u2019ucz of other players contribution more than ganguly%u2019s leadership or his own performance. Ganguly was non perforoming captain last 2 years of his captaincy.

Media is overhyped the news of ganguly%u2019s return and and won MOS. Sachin won Mom and MOS against WI series, but there was hardly any noise. Even kumble and zahirkahn made come back after doing well in county media hardly mentioned about these 2 players.Even dhoni, yuvraj, dravid, robin batted well.

Ganguly always very aggressive, authorative and showed his dominance on field or infront of medi in his appproch as a captain, while dravid is cool, methodical and calculative ,defensive.. ganguly was accredited for team victory as a succesgfi; captian, while when team wom dravid%u2019s captaincy the victory was shared by all players. But after each defeat, dravid%u2019s captaincy was compared to ganguly%u2019s success, and many ppl / media criticised dravid and passed negative comments. other players were blamed.
How much relevant is comparison of 16 months captaincy with 5 years ??? Even john and ganguly did not built the team in one year or not won all series. They also watched how the team reached WC final in 2003 and after that how the team was collapsed
When dravid made captain team was ranked 8th I icc odi ranking and 2nd in Test, but now team is ranked 5th in odi and 4th in test ranking.
No personal things s against any players. Hope cricket fans won%u2019t put any biased msgs against players / personal and their family members.
BEST OF LUCK TO TEAM INDIA

All the best Team INDIA
by SriRam Rachapudi on Feb 21, 2007 10:44 AM

I hope to see india doing extremely well in this world cup.Each every player should take the responsibility of finishing the game rather than looking for others to complete it.Especially Openers should do very well, in the past 3 tournaments none of our opening partnerships are good. Also the middle order should get stable and look to play entire overs rather than rushing out by playing poor shots.

by Suman Bhat on Feb 21, 2007 07:22 AM

Zahir khan and Anil kumble made a come back after performing well in county cricket without any media cheals, policians 's influence or not crying infront of media. Even laxman is out of team but he does not make any noise.
Laxman and kaif should have included in WC team.munaf, sreeesant and bajji bowled well. dhoni did a good job behind wkts. and robin veeru, sachin dravid, ganguly dhoni scored runs. good bowling supported by good fielding.
Team did wonderful job and played better cricket. Captain dravid managed resources very well.
congratulations to skipper dravid and team india BEST OF LUCK TO WC

Well said abhai. But I am confident things gets improved soon. I think, rediff introduced these kind of message posting recently. And most of our guys are news to forum. So, for fun (?) they are adding all dirty comments. Overtime, most will get used online posting and dirty comments go off slowly.

Best example is when corporate banks and others started toll-free customer service over phone, some dirty people used to call the callcenter and talk dirty things with CSRs. But overtime, it got settled.

Sametime, as you said, rediff also has to take some strict editorial policy (frankly I don't know how it works currently) On report abuse rediff has to block the corresponding email ID etc., But practically, it is not possible even for rediff to check all the message before posting. Instead they can develop some software tools which checks for specific words and redirect to moderator etc.,

India will always remain a mediocre cricketing nation. Once in a while there will be ups but we are not going to be australians or the west indies. We are not going to be a dynasty. Our mindset is like that.

There will be periods where people will go gaga over players. As a nation we always value the wrong things. We are always looking at bowling and batting statistics instead of wins/losses, regional favoritism over performance etc.

Ganguly deserved to be dropped when he was dropped and now because of his performance is back in the team. Thats all there is to it. Add this to one more thing we all love to do, politicking and debating about nothing.

I am not anti Dada but I want other team players to perform as well just like Dada. Any one who thinks that Dada can win the world cup for India on his own has got to be a MORON. For the sake of India, give up this shameless bias and sing songs for the whole team, not one individual!

Tyger Dada Tyger burning bright
In the forests of the night.
He is the golden day shining
On the mountain top-
The fields and the meadows.

Dada I see you everywhere;
In the sky above us I see
Your face in the dark night.

You are the inspiration of
One thousand million who find
Their life worth living;
You made the boundaries wither away
One thousand millions dance to your tune.

Shine Dada shine and burn even brighter-
Hit hard all senseless illogical
Utterences out of the fences hundred miles away.

Live Dada live.
Live long! Live strong!!
Dada the Darling Daring!!!

Title: Dada Ganguly is cunning politician
Write a poem how ganguly used dlamiay when he was in power to stick to captiacy even he was out of form and how gracefully backstabbed dalmiya after dalmiay lost power and changed party. How thousands of ganguly fans humilitated dravid and team india during oid mathc against kolkata last year?? How gnaguly ditched dravid after dravid mediated between him and chappell during Zimb tour. how ganguly pulished chapell's emial to bangali newspaper justlike he vomited the dressing room conflict in front of media after scoring 100 and destroyed the team spirit.
team india consists of another 10 players and they are doing more good job / performance than ganguly. Grow beyond boundaries of WB/kolkata and praise indian team Praise current skipper dravid who is doing a better job as a captian than ganguly without any media hype, political influence and godfather in bcci statistics and vedio clips prove this
