As a witness to the spectacle that u just called a game,just 'cos u did it in a baddy court, i need to put things in perspective. 'mysore' made the blunder of pairing up with the descendant of ravan's brother (not the one who defected). though immensely talented in the art of war, this guy was a lazy bum. So was our partner who wouldn't move an inch and kept playing his favorite 'swatting the mosquito' shot atleast 7 times, missing the target completely. He topped it with antics like throwing the bat around pretending as though he was not used to bad shots. A threat from the high 'quality' umpire that he will issue a 'pink card' put an end to this menace.
the spectacle had the opponents leftie and sleepy in splits. leftie was literally rolling on the floor while the other 3 continued playing(anyway he was not doing much on court even while on two legs; atleast sleepy had a better view of the court now). sleepy waged a lone battle with some great placement(?!) of shots, grinning widely at the spectacle (since anything beyond that would have been too exhausting).

Ravan's brother did try to roll around on the Baddie court though. He is supposed to have played for a State - it is a small city today (with a couple of badminton courts and a couple more racquets and plastic shuttle cocks)- must've been a state in Ravan's times.....

Ah... it was you 3 f**kers, Leftie, grumpie and Ravan ka bhai, rolling on the badi court that caused tremors in the campus. I mistook it for an earthquake for a while. Waise after watching you guys play, I thought it might be a good idea to introduce "heavy-weight" badminton. Taguchi and I will pair up and kick your arse.

Padukone: Nice of you to drop by - at least have the decency to tell the truth. I wasn't rolling, just flopping

Worried: The Richter-scale was quite stable I recall. And Taguchi kick-ass on a badminton court ? - when pigs have wings.

Yash: Girish tends to do that. Drags people into all weird stuff.
