I make jokes for a living.
Sometimes people laugh.
Most tweets about cricket.
See my videos below for proof.

Saw that video of Virat's fake fielding.
You can clearly see the batter completely deceived and bamboozled by Kohli's heinous actions as he comfortably completes the run, without even noticing Kohli.
One of the big factors to RCB storming the playoffs has to be Virat Kohli getting pissed off with critics.
Hope someone pisses him off in the World Cup.
By the way - Pakistan do this every 2nd World Cup.
Look *ridiculous* in 1-2 matches.
Flights to Karachi are booked.
Then South Africa lose to Netherlands.
And, somehow magically: Pakistan reach the Final.
Been watching test cricket for 29 years.
And this is honestly completely and utterly ridiculous by the Indian team.
It's Australia.
It's Gabba.
It's a young team.
It's an inexperienced team.
We have no right to be in this position.
The success of Hindustani Bhau shows that a lot of people don't have a problem with 'bad' language.
They have a problem with 'bad' language used by people they disagree with.
This
@bhogleharsha
being calm and cool and zen and professional and poised in commentary while India is 46/4 makes me understand why most of us can not be commentators.
Think positive.
At least I didnt spend ₹50,000 to go to Ahmedabad and watch the match, like some of my friends.
Spent ₹1,550 on a bottle of gin to get sad alone at home.
India in the precarious position:
- They have to beat Afghanistan
- They have to beat them soundly
- They have to do both these things and keep Afghanistan's confidence up so they can beat New Zealand.

Dear
@BCCI
- please show live telecast of IPL practice matches, net practice, players playing cricket on their phones, anything.
We'll watch.
Regards, a fan.
Have not been this excited about an Indian pacer since Bumrah first exploded into the IPL.
To see Umran Malik and him bowling in tandem would be mind orgasm.
The 3rd umpire is called to spend 12 hours to see if Ishan Kishan was out - when he was definitely out.
But, not 1.2 seconds to figure an above waist no-ball.
My sister got 91% in boards.
Which was par for her.
Parents were happy.
I got 70.83%.
Which was shocking, since I was expected to fail.
My parents (and sister) were ecstatic.
Lesson for students:
Set expectations so low that achieving mediocrity is cause for celebration.
Forget 100 Crores for
#Vickat
wedding...
An OTT should bid 101 Crores for a 3-hour unedited telecast of Kohli, Rohit, Ganguly *just* talking.
Hosted by Jay Shah.
Craziest post-match scenes in the IPL.
So much threat of escalation.
Don't think I've seen this in cricket - where players have to hold back their own Coach from fighting with an opposition player.
Impact Coach.

@KP24
calling Arshdeep Singh's calmness before bowling that last over is peak commentary.
"You can't see it. The cameras are entertaining you. But, the real nuts and bolts are here. He looks calm. He's taking his time. He's in control."
Cut to - stumps broken, twice.
Wow, wow.
Pat Cummins spent a month bowling his heart out in flat pitches.
Trying his best to get Babar Azam out.
Took a plane.
Landed in Mumbai and decided - enough of bowling.
Batting is easier.

The 5th day of the 5th Test happens on my birthday.
This is very annoying because my family and friends insist on celebrating my birthday, while all I want to do is ignore them and watch the final day.
Wankhede goes absolutely silent as Rohit gets out.
Absolutely nuts when they see Virat.
Nuts when it's a 4.
Quiet when DRS.
Nuts again when inside edge.
Every moment is such extreme emotion.
Love it.
My mother waited for my dad to return to Mumbai before getting their vaccine together.
I told her that was really romantic.
She told me just needed company to wait in the line.
Frankly, this *proves* that bowler's pitches can also make for incredibly exciting T20 cricket.
Not for the first time this World Cup.
Genuinely don't mind it, at all!
This lockdown is making me regret even minor financial decisions from my past.
"Did I really need to spend Rs. 900 on that sandwich at the airport in 2017?"
The fair way to settle the debate between Venkatesh Prasad and Aakash Chopra is a one-on-one 5 over match, played during lunch in the Third Test.
With commentary by KL Rahul & Shubman Gill.
My son has an idea to resolve this current crisis:
"Papa, we can put a lot of sanitiser in all the volcanoes and they will explode and kill all the coronavirus."
A few years back - I finished a corporate show.
The organiser came up and told me, "Super show, really enjoyed. But, how come you didn't do your cricket impressions?"
At future financial loss to me, I'd like to clarify
@vikramsathaye
and me are two different people.
The problem is IPL teams rewarding players that do well against India.
This motivates them.
Do the reverse.
No one bid for Travis Head.
Send a message.
Do it for Indian cricket.
The team that won World Cup got 33 Crores.
The captain of the team that won the World Cup just got 20.5 Crores.
Beating India in a World Cup Final is extremely profitable.
China is in territorial disputes with 18 countries.
China is bordered by 14 countries.
So, China is claiming territory in 4 countries that are not even touching China?
Just watched highlights of Day 5.
Impossible to capture the drama of the day in them.
How do you show two batsmen in pain play out 289 balls to avoid defeat?
Or a bowler bowling his heart out all day and facing drops?
It's like trying to capture a masterpiece in a tik tok.
Some people on Twitter right now:
"Bullying is terrible and *may* have caused a horrible tragedy."
"Now let us troll, bully and shame some people we *think* are 'responsible'."
As an overreacting Indian cricket expert, here's my take:
Get Mayank for Rohit.
Kuldeep for Nadeem.
KL as captain for Kohli.
Washington as opener.
Rohit for Ishant.
Saha for Pant.
Pant for Rahane.
Keep Bumrah, Ashwin.
Jadeja for the umpire.
Dhoni for everyone else.
Done.
If a man throws over 90 meters, twice.
Setting essentially 2 Olympic Records in 1 night!
Pretty hard to beat him.
But, what a contest.
And what a lovely rivalry.
Big love to Neeraj Chopra, always.
India's top sportsperson.
Unsubscribing to
@gradecricketer
for propogating this reverse psychology propaganda of The Asian Century.
And then inevitably their team ruins every year for India.
#BanIPL
because "Indian cricketers need to play in foreign conditions to prepare themselves for tournaments like this World Cup", gives you a good idea of the awareness of some Indian fans.
India's easiest way to win the World Cup is to ensure that Suryakumar Yadav bats 120 balls.
If he can do this much damage in 25 balls, imagine the best case.
It's been 3 hours since the power outage in Mumbai and I have:
- read 2 books.
- discovered I have a family.
- climbed 2800 floors.
- finished my PhD.
- written 4 books.
- figured out that human existence is possible without WiFi.
Sad news
Can't express my love for Irfan Khan
One of my favourite actors
Understated, brilliant, funny
On screen & off
He could pull off anything!
May be why he was in films that got 22 Oscar nominations.
I didn't know him but, I felt like I did.
Thanks for being you, sir. RIP.
