Hum Runs De Chuke Sanam



The state of Indian cricket nowadays is really sad. No bowling of any substance. They can as well pack 11 batsman and make the opposition chase 400 everytime.
Nevertheless, while watching Zaheer and Co bowling at Yasser Hameed and Inzy today, the KK song from Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam came into my head from nowhere. With modified lyrics, I present the song, which could probably be a song that plays in a bowlers mind everytime

Tadap tadap ke is haath se
Gendh nikalti rahi
Mujhko sazaa di loose ball ki
Aisa kya gunaah kiya
ke pit gaye, haan pit gaye
Ke pit gaye hum wicket lene ki koshish mein

Ajab hai cricket yaara aaaa aaaaaa...
pal do pal ki khushiyan aaan aan aan....
Physique mujhe deke bowler ka
talentless kyon banaaya

Kabhi no-ball, kabhi chakke, phir no ball, aur chouke, mujhe naani yaad aaye
mujhe naani yaad aaye, phir batsman six maare, mera man ghabraaye
mera man ghabraaye, phir naani yaad aaye, kabhi chakke kabhi chouke

machal machal ke is haath se
ball nikalti rahi
mujhko sazaa di loose ball ki...............

and so on....

There would be an equivalent song for the opposition batting too.,.,.. but that is for another day!! :)
