Jofra vs Burmrah the crown jewel duel
Is there any other sort of sport.. that can hold a candle to having to handle
Getting caught in the ripsnort onslaught scandal…as speedsters hold court
Fraught as they face a serious deleterious imperious express pace ace
At their sleek peak..unique freaks..bombastic..iconoclastic mercenaries
Havoc to wreak on adversaries.. and their own physique..
So as we’ve read..will the King of swing..zing and ping pip
The wannabe Prince of nip ..grip rip and zip ..as this speedster pair..finally go head to head
The cool duel between bowling’s crown jewels..fretting on getting the applause and awards..
Named and framed down on those famed Lords boards.
Jasprit’s chestnut struts.. wicket gluts ..no ifs and buts…not just wading
Through but invading batters tut tut ruts..having for starters ..their guts for garters..
That bizarre pitter patter stutter..cricket’s superstar strutter..bowling Tsar
Another flutter…vanquished..languishing in his anguish gutter..
Ah the animosity and chutzpah of my favourite nutter Boomrah
But another hurrah as Jasprit does spar with voila..the tother velocity Shah
Quick pick fix...chin music assassin in the mix…so agile…and sadly so fragile
The feverish febrile devilish ferocity… of Jofra.
Hallowed arrows…fallowed batters in tatters…harrowed…another spell…them felled
Well William Telled..so athletic..almost poetic…a balletic aesthetic to soothe
Watching him bowl..beholding that smooth action unfolding…crickey in the groove …
Can move and seam as creamily and dreamily as even Mikey Holding
Let’s call it calypso tyro soul..
While the riper ..splenetic..frenetic and ..kinetic of our favourite whippier
Trippier ..zippier..nippier sniper ..precocious pied piper and ferocious viper
A bowling bazaar on fire…slick at a serious lick.. charm and grace of Jofra’s right arm
As the archer takes on the the mesmeric…stratospheric..definitely not generic
Totemic ..in the slot..red hot slingshot
Appetite whetter…the pace setter.. default catapult assault..record getter
Against the afflicted pretender who knows could have inflicted far more blows
On his foes without those injury woes.. the computer says no
But Jofradamus our tutor…can see the future..
Come on it will be one of those ultimate showstopper
Every willow wielder comes a cropper
Proper party popper.. crushed toes…speedster shows…
It doesn’t really get any better
