Praveen swings...ahem...


Imagine Praveen Kumar walking upto Wasim Akram, holding him by the collar and threatening to sue him.
I know it looks far-fetched but if Praveen heard what Akram said about him during the ongoing Test series between India and England, this could be a possibility.
Akram was guilty of suggesting twice that Praveen isn’t straight.
What if PK’s family gets to know about this? What if his girlfriend or fiancĂ©e gets to know that?
Just imagine.
Of course, then PK is justified in catching hold of Wasim Bhai’s collar.
Hang on, before you ostracise me for getting wild with my imagination, truth be told.
The Pak legend was apparently appreciating PK’s ability to swing the ball. But unfortunately, nuances of grammar don’t come so easily to him as the beautiful art of swing bowling did.
He’d said, while admiring PK, “Parveen (read Praveen) is doing a great job, he is swinging both ways.”
All I can say is: LOL….
