Indian Premier League 3-A Poem

Lalith Modi had started the IPL,
Or Indian Premier League.
IPL 1 and 2 are over,
Now we are on IPL 3.

There are only 8 teams,
In this cricket league,
Their duels are always a lot of fun,
As each strive for victory.

The defending champions,
The Deccan Chargers team,
Charged from last to first,
So they must have high esteem.

The Royal Challengers
Are the Bangalore boys.
When they play at home,
The crowd makes a lot of noise.

The team from Chennai
Are called the Super Kings.
They are a good team on paper,
But on the field, they don’t do many things.

The Rajasthan Royals are foreign lead.
They were the best in IPL 1,
But they’re called the underdogs,
Even though they had won.

The capital state has a team,
Delhi Dare Devils is the name.
They’re a good team,
But have only brought the capital shame.

The Kings XI Punjab,
Is the team from Mohali,
They’re a balanced team,
But they have never won tourney.

The Knight Riders are the Kolkata team.
They change jerseys every year
To make up for poor play on the field
As their fans shed many a tear

Last, but not least, the Mumbai Indians,
They’re in great form.
They have good bowlers and better batsmen,
Who could whip up quite a storm.

As you can see, IPL 3
Has started off quite well,
So watch the show and you’ll know,
The news will have little else to tell.

Nihaal George,
