Hi Friends,
An epidemic is gripping a large part of the world.

The symptoms are anxiety, tension, depression and insomnia. This unique sickness is called Cricket Fever.
Most of the patients suffer form absent-mindedness. A cricket enthusiast was asked that how old was his mother-in-law. His instant reply was, “98 – not out”.
From the point of view of a human resource manager, it is a disastrous state of affairs. Out of 22 players, practically only 4 are playing the game, 9 are taking a sun bath and another 9 are playing cards or sleeping. No wonder Hitler had banned cricket in Germany.
Bernard Shaw had said that cricket is a game played by 22 fools and watched by 22,000 fools. What would have he said about 22 million fans who now watch live coverage of cricket on TV?
We have decided to have your lab test to trace the germs of Cricket Fever in your body. If all your answers to this week’s Cricket Quiz are correct, your temperature is 106 and you need a dose of Chakazoolu prize medicine.
Bye,
Syeda Maria
