Claps and back slaps to the Black Caps chaps



Delighting our Black Caps chaps

Uniting fans fighting nite nite naps 

Gaslighting Indian foes mishaps 

Rewriting those cricketing maps 


As the Black caps hit their straps

Darryl the toast the host soul saps

Gunbarrel straight out of the traps

They unravel yet another six slaps


Our great festive carol never flaps

A late Christmas pressie unwraps

Flicks & tricks spate picks the gaps

Indian spinners fate sinners lapse


Black caps chaps claps & back slaps 

Kiwi yippee we see diddy GP scraps

Even that fat cat Virat finally snaps

Zen of Darryl and Glen victory laps


After white-wash a chance perhaps?

Hitch both Ajaz & Mitch under wraps  

No Will or Matt but still Indians zaps 


The plush crushed can’t turn off taps

Out gunned out spun another collapse

Lush waves rush flush with Black caps

This one is a tongue twister! (I can her the cricket on the telly in the background here, so this is apt.) J :)
