"One king to rule them all,
One king to market them all,
But the day you have more than one king,
Heralds a disaster with no inkling,
And down will come kings, kingdom and all"
So goes the famous Swa-Hillee limerick (shamelessly flicked from a number of sources). Though the true import is lost in translation. Much like the Pink Floyd song. These words of wisdom were unfortunately given a miss by the Mohali team owners with a deft "Bah!" and dimpled smile (pause to reflect on the Herculean task of saying Bah and smiling at the same time). Mohali, led by their non-playing captain (in a manner of speaking. And in a manner of playing), Yuvraj Singh soon began to dominate the bottom of the league and was soon competing with Mumbai for the bottom rung of the IPL. When questioned about the uninspired performances, Yuvraj replied "We need to pull up our socks", thus once again effortlessly changing the topic from cricket to his sartorial habits. "Practice makes a man perfect", he said. However, no amount of sock pulling could change their fortunes, but Sreesanth did receive an extra sock from fellow Indian team mate Harbhajan Singh for his efforts.
