A Witty Verse on ICC 2019 World Cup Final!

Congratulations England!

And well played New Zealand!

The ICC World Cup Final Match was a tie!

England won because of its boundaries!

And New Zealand lost despite taking more wickets,

In fact all 10 England wickets!

Today boundaries count,

And may me tomorrow sixes,

And thereafter the number of wickets,

When there is a tie in super overs,

And who am I to sit in judgment,

I am just a spectator who loves the game.

But what has International Cricket come to,

From the best of five,

Test matches of days-five,

And County matches of days-three,

To 60 over WC one day matches,

To 50 over WC one day matches,

To Twenty20 World Cup matches,

To 20 over IPL matches,

And matches of all these formats,

Separately with every world cricketing team…

Cricket has become very exciting,

HIT OR GET OUT GAME!

Around the year entertainer,

With on ground entertainment,

Off-ground pre-match discussions,

Post-match analysis,

Strategies,

Forecasts,

Involving decades of statistics,

And what not,

And from today,

Apart from all these statistics,

We have to keep count,

Additionally,

Not just of runs,

And wickets,

But also of boundaries!

To determine a winner!

VahRehVah! Cricket!
