English has no gramner

It was an
incident of my early college days sometimes in the year of 1972 or 73 when a cricket match was scheduled  by Calcutta university (as far as my knowledge permits)at Eden Garden between England(junior)and  India (junior).The England team was led (captain)by Tony Greig who later became the most dependable player of England cricket Team.Similarly ,the captain of Indian junior team was led by one very talented bengali gentleman(name with held intentioally) but subsequently he could not make his mark.
In any case we the students of of all the colleges under Calcutta university assembled there at Eden Garden.As few of us were nominated to take care of the England players, we were in the dressing room of England to take care of them.Meanwhile Tony came and told us "let's go let me introduce with the Indian captain, we came out went near to the Indian dressing room and went inside the dressing room to inform that England Captain had come.The captain of Indian Team came out and the conversation was reproduced verbatim."who is the captain "Tony asked.Indian counter part replied smartly "yea  I is the captain" Tony  exclaimed "oh you are" and pat came the reply "yeaaa I are!"
