New India Raided Gabbatoir

First test with all out in 36 runs’ debacle,

Monumental triumph of India

Team would remain a history

Absence of reputed players

Most of them debutants, inexperienced,

Hit by a spate of injuries,

Facing too many odds,

New team rated as ‘A’,

Rose like a phoenix from ashes.

Calm, compose, astute captain

Ajinkya Rahane stood firm,

Inculcated into the net bowlers,

Beginners, rookies, leading from

Front hitting a century, the determination,

Die hard spirit, neglecting the past.

When the team India raided

Gabbatoir, breaking Australia’s

32 years winning streak, 

And the series win, the whole

World including arch rivals

Pakistan stood up and saluted

Hence finally people made to 

Believe that the fairy tales

Do come true sometimes
