Sanga Banga

Who is the greatest from the land of the other hand…

The pure top draw..southpaw....

Lara or Spice Isle style.. guile and 

Wiles of Kumar Sangakarra..


Who wouldn’t hanker in their seats 

Various vicarious treats..Sri Lanka’s number one ranker..

Fancy dan talisman.. Tamil Totem of elan..

Run spanker & banker.


His unctuous umami like a sumptuous curry 

Even at the end…flurry of runs in a hurry for Surrey…

Hands so soft….held aloft…the head so still…combined with 

Unique refined technique echoes the past…remembers

Classical embers of the text and record book cast..


Plays the ball so God damn late…almost tardy…

Trait of a hardy..true first rate great…

Another Sanga banga..all thriller not a scintilla of filler..

Larrups another clanger…elegant and decadent..

Like having a Concorde in your hangar..  

Redolent of a sublime almost forgotten time.. 


His timber timbre.. the sweetest rhyme…

Record heaper…acid jazz pizzazz..flair run reaper..

Smooth..rare groove sweeper.. 

Well honed treacle toned soul

Top notch keeper..& to be fair

A lovely mop of hair..


One of the gilded golden generation of glittering constellation sensations..  

As a lefty…no fibs…his nibs might get first dibs

Superfly guy playing or…sashaying to his own homegrown celestial sky high…
