The loss of hitting....

In a startling move, Rahul Dravid has announced that he is taking full responsibility for the whole Atlantic fiasco. In a press meet that the BCCI and the Fox news network organized, he revealed that he even though the whole team had the proverbial finger in the pie, he, as the alpha male, would take prime responsibility for the inglorious denouement.

He mentioned in the conference that as there were a dearth of good knocks in the Indian team line-up, the management had hence wanted to recruit the likes of Anna Nicole Smith and Pamela Anderson. He and ANS had a meeting in the Bahamas before the world cup to discuss about ANS's knocks... and things got out of hand... he mentioned. Our astute reporter noticed that Rahul was trying to lick some Kissan Jam off his cheek when he said that.

The team had considered ANS a brighter prospect because even though she had started her career with a modest 36 point average, she had grown visibily with her tremendous knocks over the years maintaining an average of above 50, the last couple of years. He felt the loss of ANS's unique skills would be felt deep down under by one and all in the team.

"I hate to be the one to have told you... but... I did tell you so... No. That is no vagina that woman had. It was a clown car", he said before lapsing into evil laughter.
