the "a" series

You may not know this, but there is an “a” series happening at the moment.

New Zealand & Australia have made their way over to India, and are playing out one of those bipolar series that one day cricket seems to throw up.

Australia got the asses handed to them by Gillespie & Fulton.

India lost a testicle to Tait & Ronchi.

New Zealand were violated by Chawla and Badrinath.

It's a sad state of affairs for everyone involved, but i kinda like it.

I like Gillespie, he reminds me of people i grew up with, or should i say angry guys in pubs that head butted people around me.

Ronchi is freakin unreal, he reminds me of the nerdy kid in class with the best party trick, like flicking their eyelids inside out while farting the national anthem.

Ofcourse Chawla is like your new best friend, but your old friend is still around.

"A" series are always fucked up.

They never make sense.

What is an "a" player, they are like a team full of bronze medalists.

But either way, they should be played on TV.

Because they would be exciting.

Wouldn't they.

At least we wouldn't see the same old players, again and again, and, again. again.

I think I have seen Daniel Vettori bowl 12 million times, Ricky Ponting look grumpy a kabillion times and Anil Kumble wipe his brow infinity number of times.

Can't we see more "a" players and the like, they aren't old and predictable are they.
