Dear Editor,
The shorter version of cricket is not for the faint hearted. However, there should be an advisory notice for viewers who choose to watch it on TV.
On Friday, I found synonyms for the Guyanese adjectives to curse Gayle, Bravo, Pollard and to a lesser extent, Samuels for their poor performance and decided to save on electricity by shutting down the TV.
Later curiosity caused me to switch back on to witness what promised to be a nail-biting finish. I took my blood pressure reading ‒ it was OK. Narine gave us a slim hope and then came the last ball. I was standing up, and guess what, GPL shut me down with the last ball. I screamed and cussed, yes cussed, as I now appreciated the budget cuts and the commotion or ruckus in Parliament. Yes the power came on a minute after but it spoilt my suspense.
Though a tie there was a short run, but let it go. What an exciting finish. Congrats to the contributors.
Yours faithfully,
