Wigston wanderers to use mongoose bat

Kpl info: Manish has been trialling the use of the mongoose bat.

Manish was last seen whistling after a good net session.

"I came, I saw, I hit him to the upper tier.I came, I saw, I hit him to cow corner."

KPL rockstar

KPL Arts: When the floodlight fickles, have no fear Manish is near to fill the strategy break.

We have been banned from performing the Haka when Mitesh visits the Wigston Common next week. This was because so many patients started doing it to him.So we will intimidate him with our new anthem. I am happy that it has picked up the Macdonald's critic's award for melody. We have got a rendition below.Enjoy.OK, Agga press play on the tape machine."

"When you walk through the storm hold your head up high
And don't be afraid of the dark
At the end of the storm is a golden sky
and the sweet silver song of the lark
Walk on through the wind
Walk on through the rain
Though your dreams be tossed and blown
Walk on, walk on, with hope in your heart
And you'll never walk alone!

The Vogon factor

Kpl info : Mitesh has admitted defeat and is planning to quit even before a ball has been bowled.

Mitesh "hawkeyed" a secret Wigston Wanderer's strategy document.

"If they are going to use Vogon poetry instead of sledging. It's just not cricket.I'm off. I can't win," said Mitesh.

Please text on 84494 YES if you agree Mitesh is right to raise the white flag.

Please decide after reading the Vogon poetry below:


O freddled gruntbuggly, thy micturations are to me,
As plurdled gabbleblotchits on a lurgid bee,
And hooptiously drangle me with crinkly bindlewurdles,
Or I will rend thee in the gobberwarts with my blurglecruncheon, see if I don't

Manish wants to reverse old hurt



KPL theme song

If you are what you say you are
A cricket superstar
Then have no fear
The KPL is here
and the beginning is here and they wanna know
Oh oh oh oh


[Verse 1:]
Yea, uh
A fresh cool young season
Trying to cash his shot check 2, 6, 2
Want to believe my own hype but it's too untrue
The world brought me to my knees
What have KPL brung you?
Did you improve on the design?
Did you do something new?
Well your name ain't on the guest list
Who brung you?
The more famous person, you Manish came through
And the sexy lady next to you
Manish brung you!
And then it hit me
Standing outside of KnighronOval waiting for God to come and get me
Mitesh is too uncouth
Unschooled to the rules
And too gum shoe
Too much of a newcomer
And too uncool
Like Sachin and Lara
Mitesh battle with it well
Though Manish needs a holiday like lady who sung blue
Go back what ever you did you undo
Heavy is heaven
The devil on me two tonnes too

If you are what you say you are
A cricket superstar
Then have no fear
The KPL is here
and the beginning is here and they wanna know
Oh oh oh oh

[Verse 2:]
And you better wear your cricket shades
The floodlights here can burn holes through the cricket blades
Down through the crowds
Making the past cricketers proud
Where the Cricketing Gods laid
And hitting of out through Atmosphere
Nearly misses air liners
Magnified times five
This is pointed at the batter
Rickoshea off the moon and sets the forest ablaze
Now that's important to say
Cuz even with all of that
Most of us don't want the KPL to fade
We want it to braid
Meaning we want it to grow
Meaning we want it to stay
Like Hav-a-sheikh called
And the umpire told him to wait
Un-strap Manish from the chair
And put him back on his stage
The audience ain't going to be fazed
And they ain't gon' clap and they ain't gon' praise
They want everything back that they paid
Cuz they been waiting since ten to see the lights get dim

If you are what you say you are
A cricket superstar
Then have no fear
The KPL is here
and the beginning is here and they wanna know
Oh oh oh oh

Bat to Basics screams Timmo Nielsen

Timmo Nielsen is the new Wigston Wanderers coach.

He is going to focus on mental strength and making the boys concentrate on the hardest thing in cricket.

This is watching the ball and hitting boundaries.

"The answer to Wigston Wanderer's problem is 42.That is the answer," said Nielsen.

"What is the question again ?" said the KPl info faithful reporter, John Balls.

"That's why I'm coach of Cricket Wigston and you're not, mate," said Nielsen.

Artic Freeze? No more Pleeze!

Our reporter Mr Court'en Boweled was there as usual when the inaugural Commoner's Shield 10 was at the KnightonOval
Some called it a warm up we would call it rather a cooling down as the warm up to the KPL 10 started in blustery conditions leaving even the most warm hearten fan asking for warm gloves and hot tea (but from the reactions at the end we have a strong suspicion it was something stronger.. something Irish)!
The toss was won by the Wigston Wanderers and chose to bat on a pitch helping the seamers... called it a green top is something of an understatement.
After all the huffing and puffing of the pre-match bravado of both captains. A barrage of fast bowling met both teams and KnightonOval score a respectable 25.
In reply after some wayward bowling by the knightonOval skipper who kept on bowling low full tossers to Manish it appeared things were follwing apart for KnightonOval. However, in a change of tactic Mitesh started bowling high full tosser and the planned worked. It slowed the scoring and eventually resulted in both teams ending in a draw at 25-25

Later Manish was seen tripping the KnightonOval captain in the warm down
Manish was not available for direct questioning but a spokesman said "He, that is Manish had nothing to do with the tripping incident, it was his bat!!!!"

This Cout'en Boweled reporting from a cold, wind swept arena that is KnightonOval
