Few people wonders "what's there with Cricket ?"few says "It's a boring game"
few believes as "all the matches are fixed, they are playing for money".
Indians(we) are really craziest people in the world, we will be attaching ourselves emotionally with something, if you take western countries they will put their kids in a separate room and am very very sure, western country people are less emotionally attached than us..But we(Asians) where Hinduism,Islam,Buddhism,Judaism etc etc all of them have their origins in Asia and we(Asians) will attach ourselves to others easily and we are well known for hospitality..
Hospitality and diversity led Europeans to settle without much trouble and which paved way for British to control us for centuries..
And so we exist with commonwealth games and CRICKET which is a product of English is bulky bulged here with money.
Coming to the essence:
What's wrong with cricketers and what's wrong with cricket crazy fans ?
A common ardent fan who devotes cricket as religion and players as god expects four things(perhaps it may expand)
1)Every delivery that an Indian bowler bowls must return as a wicket !
1)Every delivery that an Indian bowler bowls must return as a wicket !
2)Every delivery that an Indian batsmen face must be converted in to boundaries.
3)Every lofted ball of opponent team must fall on the hands of an Indian player
4)Every appeal that is kept in front UMPIRE must be given red light perhaps a finger raised towards the sky.
BONUS POINT: Every match that India plays should be WON !
If nothing goes this way, Indian cricketers name will top the list of MOST ABUSED HUMAN BEINGS.
And their family members will occupy the rest of the slots.
And their family members will occupy the rest of the slots.
WHY THIS KOLAVERI ?
Go to Facebook after our cricket team got defeated, we can find status saying..
"India loses again, poor captaincy, poor bowling and poor fielding" there will be 10 likes and 100 comments.
Go to any 24x7 news channel:
TIMES NOW is the most hated channel for me,
BORIA MAJUMDAR (feeble joker who never makes us to laugh)
He will speak as if he is the roman god for cricket, he says" i believe DHONI should have selected Ojha instead of Ashwin".. they call him as cricket EXPERT.. as if he smashes all the deliveries to mercury..
MEDIA(bunch of Jokers) will make CRICKETERS as scapegoats, what if they party with some actress ? it's their personal,, do they scrutinize you(media) ??
SUCH A SHAME !
GO TO A TEA SHOP: 80 year old grandpa.. "These youngsters are useless,we should have Kapil dev as captain.." they will be in a thought that Kapil is still playing under DHONI's Captaincy !:P
Cricket is a game and a game has success and victory as PART AND PARCEL of the life..
even an educated ignorant(like me) will refuse to accept cricket as game.
In my college days, we had a fight... Sourav or DHONI ? i am an ardent DHONI follower, we heated up the arguments and it ended up in dean's room ! i am ashamed of that :P
I can see so many people advising Indian team in blogs, few consider themselves as SIR BRADMAN and few consider themselves as SACHIN and bestows the bad words...
CRUELTY and why this killing rage ?
JEALOUSY !
1) Youngsters are jealousy over cricketers because most of their girl friends are in love with some young gun and those cricketers are partying with their sweet heart heroines.
2) Oldies are angry with the bank balance of cricketers :P
{my own view no sarcasm}
If India wins, certainly it will be a happy news for all of us,, If they loses it will be a heart breaking news no doubt in that..

None gonna come from Australia and none will crown us if India thrashes Australia and importantly everyday we have to go by the same dirty street, same job and there will be no change in our routines..
similarly no change with our routines if we lose the series !
i feel we are taking too much of cricket OVERDOSE... which is not prescribed by media neither by BCCI but forced and spoon feed by MEDIA and so called CRICKET EXPERTS who have never touched a cricket bat in their life.. so SAY no to KOLAVERI :P
P:S- Image shown is no way related to this post, but if you are very angry over me or TEAM,, please drink a sip :) Bindaas !
since most of the abusers are in guys i have added why this KOLAVERI DA.. for feminine abusers WHY THIS KOLAVERI D :P

ReplyDeleteComing to cricket, i wonder whether it continues to be sport so that we can take it as a sport- For the players, it is a passport to do TV commercials;For Sony and other channels, it is an event to increase TRPs; For politicians, it is a chance to indulge in corruption without getting punished. For the common people, it a subject for blogging?
It seems India only knows one sport ..that is Cricket and that too not good at it. I don't expect them to win all the games but at least give a tough fight.
ReplyDelete@Hariharan Valadysir, i must have added it.. i missed it :) thanks for posting it :) lol
ReplyDelete@Burhanwell said burhan :) keep visiting
ReplyDeletebeing the only sport which our government promotes much,and few of our players being world class ,people do expect much from cricket india.we really can't mistake it.we really should make a change in our system.cricket india(bcci) should come under rti.only then it will become free from corruption and the selection will be transparent and ipl shouls be made short so that players get enough rest between series.
ReplyDelete@muthiah sriramcool down sriram :) it's just a game.. let's wait :)
ReplyDeletethanks for your comment !
India knows only cricket, but the problem is India isn't consistent in that sports too. Media also knows only two things, it either crucifies or hails a cricket player.
ReplyDelete@ArunWell said bro :)
ReplyDeleteKolaveri Blackberry kinibole nai hokoti :))
ReplyDeletemedia gives what people likes
ReplyDeletecricket loose or win Reality is BCCI wins or losses.
Deepak I stopped watching Cricket 20 years back but could n't do it with Tennis.Last time I sat b4 TV to watch Cricket was Dhoni's batting in the last World Cup. Yeah,its a game!.That's all.
ReplyDeleteFor the hype and money they get, they definitely deserve the slippers when they lose. You can not have one without the other. What big contribution to the country and world have these fellows done that they are such big heroes in the country.We all talk of Sachin Tendulkar that he has made the country proud.Cricket is a game know in just 12 countries, less than 5% of the world population outside the subcontinent must have heard of cricket. So except Indians, who in USA, China, Russia, Brazil or France would have even heard of Sachin Tendulkar?
ReplyDeleteYup, it is sad that India is best in one sport - cricket and one hobby - criticizing..! Every second person is a self proclaimed critic. From the local rickshawalla to the business tycoon. Great post Deepak..!
ReplyDeleteI was a die hard fan of cricket, before being a mom. After that kids replaced cricket,and BCCI cannot mess for me now.;). Still, I admire Tendulkar, whether he scores or not.
ReplyDelete@Gautam S Brahma i don't understand a word !
ReplyDelete@SM yes good point !
ReplyDeletethanks for visiting !
@MyKitchen Flavors-BonAppetit!. haha well said mam :)
ReplyDelete@The FoolInteresting points sir... and they are valuable :)
ReplyDeleteyes not much of people follows cricket !
@Farilahaha SACHIN ? cool mam :)
ReplyDelete@AnzzThanks for the visit anzz :)
ReplyDeleteNice to see somebody isn't buying into the whole cricket is religion hype. It is a sport one which involves a lot of money and prestige but we need to show some sportsman spirit. Congratulate the winning team when we lose and focus on the challenges that lie ahead.
ReplyDeleteNice one
i was wondering about why the Kolaveri is followed by "da" instead of "di"
ReplyDeleteVery similar to my thoughts on this! - If people consider cricket as a religion and the players as Gods, there can not be this display of hate and disrespect because they lost form for past few matches......too much of expectations!
ReplyDelete@meeraganesh hehe well said :)
ReplyDelete@Sujatha Sathya dint you read the P;S ? :P :P
ReplyDelete@ireach coincidence perhap :) thanks for the visit :)

ReplyDelete@confusedyuppie Hehe that was an interesting questing.. kindly read the article again or read the PS again :P
ReplyDeletei enjoyed reading this post.
ReplyDeletefor me in cricket what matters most is, if there's a tournament and india is out of it, it doesn't matter, what matters is, pakistan should also be out of the game!!!
if india beats pakistan in any of the league or super 6 matches of the world cup, its over for me no matter india reaches in final or not...
@rahul aggarwal Interesting desire dude :P
ReplyDelete@confusedyuppieHehe that was an interesting questing.. kindly read the article again or read the PS again :P
ReplyDeleteIn India if you ask a sabzi aur dhudhvala about how should dravid plays he can also comment on this
ReplyDeletecricket and bollywood this are two things on them anyone can comment in India and they thought that they gave the priceless comment
Media always do in which they get money
if India lost a match and they tell the people its ok we will won next match people will not watch that show
instead of that some players who didn't have played 50 matches for India comment on the batting style of sachin,dravid and give tips to kumble,zaheer who played much longer and better than them
anyways its India bro.
