JoY bAngLa, bANgLa jOy!

Eyes wide and dreary, I came online this morning to check the scores and it read...."Australian cricket sank to a new low in arguably the greatest upset in the sport's history, losing to Bangladesh in the tri-series one-day match at Cardiff's Sophia Gardens." And i simply fell off my chair. But then i got myself up and by that time the reality of what had happened dawned on me..BANGLADESH HAD WON! So i did what any other normal person would do...i went screaming down the corridor and woke the whole family up...it wasn't that early..8am on a nice winters sunday morning! They all went crazy too. Yes, you could say the Bangalis in my house this morning were truly on a euphoric high!~ I have to admit i was one of those cynics whom when the match began stated things like " this is a waste of time, my boys are going to topple Bangladesh", but tell me, who did not realize something was in the air as soon as Gilchrist and Ponting got out?!

Zaf, this time i'll forgive your mum for going against the team australia played for!! Bring out the tubla's, let's make the somoasa's, devour in the botha and play some drunk Spetrum in honour of our boys!!
