The Captain's Secret diaries...

The following is the work of a bored individual, who accidently had access to the secret diaries of the Indian Captain. The author was having bouts of temp amnesia and multiverse-al hallucinations.As a result of which the dates cannot be verified for, though the content is......

July 27 : Read about the deluge in Mumbai.. I wonder if Bandra has sunk completely.Keeping my fingers crossed.

July 30 : Came back to India from England. Not so good an outing. I wonder why the county teams kept bowliing at my ribs and the leg side. Damn them.

August 4 : Went to Eden Park. Had to get some practice to get back my form (...who am i kidding...)

August 5
: Read about Rahul's show in the final in SriLanka.. hahaha "sucker" The wall.. yeah right... serves him right for passing comments on my running..

August 6 : Finally had time to go to the jeweller to change the threads on my 15 necklaces. they really were wrecked and frayed on the day of the Natwest final.. That reminds me : Gotto change my innerwear too. The whole world saw the brand when i jumped on Kaif.. I wonder how "Hanes" is ??

Note to myself : "Shave armpits if we are on the verge of winning"

August 10 :Took the stuff from England for Kiran M and co for gift wrapping.

August 12 : Landed in Mumbai for the Selection meeting. Gifts dispatched. Darn forgot the one for J.D

August 13: Met Greg "who the hell do you think you are" Chappell. I hate the Aussie accent. Looks like he needs to be worked upon. Well traditionally Kiwis are softer than the Aussies but i feel i can get the job done.

August 14 : Had a nightmare. I dreamt that even Sahara is going to leave me.. phew..Well thankfully thats not going to happen.. they seem to have a knack of putting their money on losers.. Lucky Me..

August 15 : Ho hmmmmm.

August 16 : (morning 7:00 Am) .The big day today. Selection meeting. Time to see if the Chanels' have done the trick. Fingers crossed..

August 17 :Yipppeeee. How you doin Captain...;-) Hoorrraaaahhhhh. .Now who's the man.Rahul...huhnnnnn who's the man. I feel invincible

August 19 : Leaving for Chennai. Sticky...sheesh ..
August 21 : Inflight to Zimbabwe.Taunted Rahul all the way to the Airport
I dont like the new hairy boys... thank god for my "Brady Bunch"

August 22 : Stranded in Bulawayo.Looks like our complacency is rubbing on the Board. Zimbabwe sucks.

August 25 : F@#k you Bond.
New entry in the book of excuses : Blame the board for the loss.
Note to myself : Dont fake anymore injuries. the excuse is too fresh in people's minds.

August 30 : We won. got to agree .i did not see it coming. In state of shock... How did it happen..
Give me novoaine... Enjoy it while it lasts
