I agree ive never seen an entire cricket match since I left india when I was 8 & I just got bored with it before with 20-30 people coming to our house to watch it on our color tv(back in 96-97) so it was never something I looked forward to.
These days I like to view the score cards & I get much more joy from that then wathcing the games. I am from hyd so I will be a bit "regionalist" (who in india isnt to their own right?) & I am a fan of VVS Laxman. He isnt as well liked as other cricketers & I could care less about that but when he is taken out to make room for others it annoys me. If you compare stats his avg is decent. When ganguly got kicked out people were in an uproar over it but when laxman gets out no one says anything. Im glad his supporters dont it makes us look like idiots saying hes better than the rest of the team. He isnt but he is a good player & deserves what he has earned.
I followed his stint at lancashire & he did very well & helped lancashire with a 100 in their 2nd inns & they fell short by 25 runs. He performed better than ganguly with his stint in county cricket. So if he gets left out of the aus tour I will be annoyed.
