Disclaimer - If you are not a cricket lover..please refrain from reading this!
I guess I had mentioned earlier that we are all cricket freaks. I got to know half of the cricket-playing Chennai crowd during those years. The place where we normally play in Annanagar is called P&T quarters (Postal & Telegraph). Its owned by the P&T department , but anybody can go and play there. Its quite big, and in weekends there used be atleast a hundred guys playing. It would be a real mess. Most of the time, naanga velayadara team vandhu....yedhavadhu local pasangala dhaan irukkum...in chennai terminology..'local'na...local dhaan..."Yei...inna romba pesura...adchaen'na vaai keenjikkum"...idhukku peru dhaan local...so mostly idhu maari edhavadhu team kooda dhaan velayaduvoam...and ella match'layum kandippa edhvadhu sandai varum...appo chinna pasanga ellam kaadha moodipaanga...yen'nu naan solla thevai illa. Avolo nalla nalla vaarthai'ya varum.
So we got into a habit of playing regularly with one particular team...naanga andha team'a Ameer team'nu solluvoam...yen'na avanaala dhaan naanga thoappoam..paradesi...eppadiyavadhu oru 5 wicket eduthuduvaan. Andha team'la ellarum..."highly educated" vera...enakku therinju evanum college pola...poana oru rendu peru...mudikkavae illa...SO every week ivanga kooda velayaduvoam...adhu maari oru week naanga varum bodhu...."Dei Vantaanunga da...Parthasarathy Team'u" appadi'nu oru sound vandhuchu....Yaaru da adhu'nu paatha...ivanunga dhaan...
Usually...all Brahmins are referred to as 'parthasarathy' (courtesy - Koundamani in Indian), and appadi kooptaa.. adhu oru kevalam.Enakku therinju..enga team'la yaarum indha brahmin slang ellam pesa maatoam..except one guy...Vaidy.
Apparam..avanungala kooptu kaettoam..
"Dei..Enna da Parthasarathy team'nu koopadreenga"
"AAma unga team'la dhaan oru parthasarathy irukkaanay"
"Evan da adhu...enna Pannaan?"
"Dho..Vaidy dhaan"
Apparam kaettoam avan enna sonnaan'nu...As I said..neraya peru velayadittu irupaanga anga..and once Ameer picked up the wrong ball(which belonnged to some other team which was playing) and started to bowl...Appo ivan..Ameer kitta poyi...
"Dei...Idhu Avaa Ball...Naama idhula poattundrikkoam"...appadi'nu solli irukkaan....adhula aarambichadhu dhaan...inikku verikkum engala Parthasarathy team'nu dhaan koopudraanga...
Dei Vaidy..evan kitta enna pesradhu unakku theriyaadhu???
Guys..chk the comment he has given for my previous blog ...I'm pasting it here...Nee innum thirundhavae illa da.
"Machi avan irunda , story'a mathirpan... sauce'la thanni vitutanga'nu sollirpan, andha lady'um oru spoon pottundrpa... "
Ok..Cya later.
