Welcome to the PKFC

Which is not some strange kind of fried chicken with a tendency to support the five-five form of cricket.


The counters have been thrown open for membership to the Praveen Kumar Fans Club. You can register online, by singing praises for the-one-who-would-have-been-a-wrestler.
Honorary lifetime membership has already been given to Ian Chappel. That Praveen Koomah, he does swing it both ways.
Then there is shy Dhoni who believes Kumar is much more effective than the speed guns will tell you.
Me? To me, he is the new Dylan and Jason Bourne blended together. He's stoic, but not staid. Poetic, but not whiny. Swings it, bit not in a float-it-up-to-get-whacked sort of way, but in a I-will-sell-my-wife-to-get-your-wicket sort of way. Soul and spunk. If his batting also clicks, he can fill stadiums.
