Cricket fever seems to have gripped Deputy Prime Minister Lal Kishenchand Advani's Bharat Uday Yatra.
A playcard in a Bharatiya Janata Party worker's hand read:
NDA - 420 (no loss),
Vajpayee - 299 (not out)
Advani - 121 (not out).
Italy - 123 all out
Sonia - 70
DMK - 9
MDMK - 1
SMK - 1
CPI - 9
NCP - 11
TP - 6
PDP - 7
CPM - 9
No prizes for guessing what the numbers stand for.
