A Chennai Semi-final Haiku (or two)

The total
was quite small
but Chennai had heart
Gilly's boys fell apart

Harro tried
to elevate his side
Chennai bowled with class
they kicked arse

OK that was crap. I am rubbish at the haiku. Actually, I'm rubbish at poetry altogether but only one more Chennai poem to go now.

Anyway, despite a relatively modest total (142) in the first innings, CSK beat Deccan in the second semi-final and will now face Mumbai in the final on the 25th.

See you there with rhymes.

For you Paddlesweep

Deccan were shite. Like a bunch of clubbies.

Gibbs being was worse than Gilly is the only positive I can think of.

Now I have to barrack for Chennai as Sachin has been given so many home matches it isn't funny.

I'd have to say that Mumbai will be favourites. Unless of course Doug the Rug has another stormer!

Absolutely Mumbai will be favourites - Chennai are lucky to have gotten this far!

Haha. So much for the predictions.
Sid you need to have more faith in your boys really :P
Have you won the blog battle now? (I don't dare congratulate yet)

Cheers,

In all fairness though, Wes, CSK aren't really my boys. And no, I haven't anywhere near won the competition, because the points are not just collected on who wins a match. I think I am actually near the bottom of the blog battle points table.
