I always try to find something funny. I don;t know why people try to find mistakes in either in his art/pictures/sketching or his ideas

My bad, Satish Acharya :) I should have checked the news on Ranatunga before asking you for the explanation. Sorry for the trouble, and thanks for the reply. It always feels good to see a connection between a fan and an artist. Cheers!

johnathonjosephs: Its Rahul Sharma, who gave away 31 runs (5 sixes hit my Gayle), and Kohli, who was hit for 28 runs in an over by Albie Morkel.

What is being said here is that its not just butchers (batsmen), but IPL produces sacrificial lambs as well...(with means Ranatunga's statement, in a way, still stands true, though Satish Acharya is trying to prove him wrong with some wit)

Its a cartoon with some wit and sarcasm...don't try to analyze folks....else you'll lose the funny side of it.

Looks like Ranatunga, but I think it should have been more clear. Upside down Daniel Christian, it look like his sweater said Gilchrist. I saw Rahul and Kohli, and I started thinking: When ever did Rahul Dravid hit 31 runs off one over? I surely missed something because the sky is not falling down! Took me a while to realize they were bowlers

Ranatunga said IPL will only produce butchers, not classy cricketers. That's Ranatunga connection. :-) Thanks
