Thats all Folks


After repeat defeats were strewn

The timing was most opportune

Started on an afternoon in June

Bazball did enthrall was a boon


Love new plans fans did croon

Bliss soaring sixes above festoon

Adoring this scoring monsoon

At the gall all pundits did swoon

 
Can’t impugn change of fortune

Batting assault & new era hewn

For 2 years were over the moon

Luxuriating in the Bazball lagoon


Magical mystical & mythical rune

Could stop Tests from dying soon

Harbinger of gunslinger’s saloon

Save cricket from its silver spoon


From results the cult couldn’t cocoon

Faults and default style won’t prune

Want to party like they’re in Cancun

Down under plunder burst the balloon


Stokes went from typhoon to buffoon

As the ECB and Key he did lampoon

Then Ben again did his team maroon


So it ends like any loony tune cartoon

As high noon for that wee Kiwi racoon

English Test tycoon to white ball goon 

"That’s all folks” Baz’s bull finally spewn
