'WATER BOY' YUVRAJ !!!

You've heard of water babies but the Indian cricket team has just produced (credit for it actually goes to a handful of Lankan fans) its own, indigenous 'water boy!'


In Colombo on Tuesday, during the 3rd and final Test, Sri Lankan batsmen were making life difficult for the Indian bowlers (what's new in that, one may ask). As their sweat swelled the waters of the adjoining Indian Ocean, a certain Yuvraj Singh - once upon a time the Prince of Indian team - had to make quite a few trips to the middle to keep his teammates' dehydration levels intact. While doing so, Yuvi (who walked lesiurely instead of running and showing some urgency like other regular subs) walked past a group of youngsters who didn't miss an opportunity to take a swig of beer everytime Sanga and Jaya sent fielders on a leather hunt.

But, swig wasn't the only thing that they took.

'Water boy, water boy', they taunted the 12th man.

Hot-blooded Yuvraj isn't known for taking such comments in his stride.

So, off he went towards the group to give a mouthful as a return gift.

Inebirated youngsters were also not in a mood to take things lying down.

A heated arguement between the two parties was inevitable.

Yuvi then complained about the incident to the Indian team management which further handed over the case to Lankan police...

Yawn.......................

Trust Yuvraj to bring life (and interest) back into an otherwise boring and (nearly) forgotton international series.

What say, folks?
