Doosra Annual Awards 2010

Time for red carpet, stealth light, stretch limos, bowties, pinstripes and satin gowns.

Ladies, gentlemen and otherwise, here goes the Doosra Annual Awards 2010:

1. Alternative Food Promotion Society's Man of the Year: Shahid Afridi, for his pioneering ball-biting act;

2.Annual Boom-to-Boomerang Medal:Lalit Modi (He can't enter India, hence sent legal counsel to receive the award).

3. Ravana Reincarnation Medal: Shane Warne, for his wife-stealing act that prompted Arun Nayar to update his Facebook status back to singles;

4. Sholay Lovers' Association's Real Viru Award: MS Dhoni, for his inability to win toss; Dhoni also gets Ranchi Milk Supplier Association's special discount coupons and Hush-Hush Society's Man of the Year, for keeping teammates in dark about his marrige;

5. The Annual Shit-Midas Trophy: Greg Chappell wins third straight time to retain the rolling trophy. He ruined Australia this time;

6. The Fake Rajnikant Trophy: Daniel Vettori, who was captain-coach-selector of the NZ team that got whitewashed by Bangladesh.

7. Sri Lanka chapter of We Mean Mean Society's Mean of the Year: Suraj Randiv, for that century-denying no-ball to Sehwag.

8. George Bush Medal for Extraordinary Hurled-Shoe Ducker (largest nominations): Jointly to Tony Blair, John Howard, Asif Ali Zardari, Omar Abdullah and Neveen Jindal.

9. Promote Facial Growth Society's Man of the Year: Hashim Amla.

How come IJAZ BUTT did not get a single award? He will sue you for that... It's a conspiracy to defame him!

Wish you a great 2011!

Som said...

Govind, thanks for all your wishes and my sincere wishes for you and your family on a happy new year :)

Som said...

Shridhar, Ijaj Butt brought up the rear :)

Govind Raj said...

Shridhar and Som,

Any award to Ijaz Butt will be considered an insult to him.

ICC should henceforth hand over an annual Ijaz Butt award for the 'Biggest AH' of the Year !

A lifetime isn't enough for ordinary mortals to achieve the kind of fecal load Mr. Butt has managed !

Som said...

Govind, passing one this idea of annual 'I The Butt' award to ICC!

straight point said...

happy new year som...

Som said...

Happy New Year SP :)

Lol, happy new year to you Som!

Well, there's an award Ijaz Butt could've got; the greatest food consumer of the year. It's not an annual record though; works every year.

Som said...

Sunny, a very happy new year to you :)

Wah Som! You didn't stick to your customary 7 points! A change for the new year? ;-)

Som said...

Hi Q, I think the law of average caught up with me:) But 7-pointers would remain the rule, despite this aberrations.
