(POEM)
Sourav Dada, the prince of Kolkata
A natural leader
A real fighter
Never afraid of competition
Full of determination
Encouraged his juniors
Plays the role of a mentor
He believed in himself and team effort
Always proved to be a great motivator.
He took the reins of Indian Cricket
When there was a match fixing racket
Even under such a situation
He could build a strong team
Brought Indian team to mainstream
Other teams started to show respect
Dada could improve our winning prospect.
Sourav Dada, the prince of Kolkata
Brought the killer instinct
Always a players’ person, never that strict
But he brought the result which was needed the most
Of course through team spirit and killer instinct.
In recent years, there was trouble in BCCI
Dada is now the leader, President of BCCI
In the past in different times
Dada has shown his caliber
Now he has to lead again
To show example to others
Many things of BCCI has to be sorted out
In administration, Dada cannot be run out.
Sourav Dada, the prince of Kolkata
Ready to take over as a world-wide Dada
But now tough days are ahead for BCCI
Dada is tougher, cooler, cleverer and straightforward
Certainly will handle everything
Dada we look forward for a great administrative innings from you
Please give new direction, dimension and stability
To BCCI that it has never seen.
Good luck Dada, Good luck…
