VAJPAYEE BOWLS A GOOGLY

That's the headline: "Vajpayee bowls a googly." [Actually, it's not the headline, it's the opening line. But I'm still not sure what it means.]

MORE: Two responses: Chris writes that "Googly is a cricket term that is now used in Indian English a lot to denote
a situation where someone does something totally unexpected," and he gives us this link. Mr. Gould notes "'Bowling a googly' is a cricket expression. It basically means that he 'threw a curve-ball.'" Thanks for the tips, guys.
