Cry babies

I am ecstatic. KKR is finally out . Beaten on their own turf. It was a comfortable win for the Royals . The match showed lot of character on the part of the Rajasthan royals. While they were at 69-4 and th match seemed to go towards KKR . Kaif changed it all . They did it comfortably with three overs to spare.
Mr. Khan was missing in action today. I guess in prefer to sulk alone , rather than in front of the cameras. It was a wise decision because what ever he might say , he knew in the back of his mind, his team had no chance against the Royals. I guess his absence had de-motivated the team, after all he is the twelfth man for his team according to Mr. Ganguly. So much for the KKR team. Shane warne has proved his point and boy, has he not done it in style. Now KKR has to bank on two of the other teams to loose their matches. What a shame. A place piggy backed on other teams. Saurav sounded disappointed and didn't have much to say.
What I admire about the Kolkata crowd is that support a good team. People clapped when Gul was sent to the boundary. Shane gave the formula for his success if anybody was listening “ We treat everybody the same.” Was Ganguly and his team management listening. I wonder. May be one of the players that KKR sent home might have helped out.
While It was on the news that the tickets for this particular match were totally sold out, attendance in the stands proved otherwise with almost half the stadium empty. Boy, what a heart burn for Mr. Khan.

In another news black cheer leaders were asked to leave and I am yet to get more information on that so will update on that later. Guess I am going to party tonight to celebrate the victory of team who was an under dog at the beginning and has emerged as a top dog. It also means that I wont be able to entertain myself anymore writing about a great team in gold and black Kolkata knight Riders. Guess Ganguly hates the guys more then he hates loosing. Good bye KKR , see you next year.
