Three-nil he said, unwisely
Did he know
21 million and 4
were listening?
Eleven men, eleven more
and
21 million and 4
saying not three-nil, two-one.
20 overs,
164 was the score
21 million and 4
groaned, please not three-nil, two-one.
So the eleven went before
21 million and 4
cheering them on
And they won.
And congratulations over them pour
of
21 million and 4

I wrote this after Faf du Plessis said that South Africa was hoping to win the T-20 series against Sri Lanka by three-nil. Naturally we won [we couldn't let them, after that] and since cricket is a national obsession, I wrote this poem.
