Read and Think before making astatement against me

I just cannot understand why people call this type of cricket event as World Cup? Is this truly a World Cup? Definitely not. We are living in a FOOLS%u2019 PARADIS, and we are becoming fools day by day. Cricket is making us fool. Look at the other countries and compare the position of India with them. Ghana not only qualifies for World Cup Football, Malta is winning Gold in Olympics, even Pakistan is winning Gold in Olympics; and what we are doing? Just becoming crazy behind some bloody jokers. Cricket is an event where, Bollywood stars, politicians, and businessmen are the dominant players, not the general fitness of sportsmen, nor the performance of the players, not even the nationalism and pride for the country. I am sure that after 20 years, India will no longer in a position for qualifying even in a single sporting event anywhere on the Globe. Sports are those things which build Morality and Ethical values in the mind of the citizens of a country. India doesn%u2019t have that spirit because of that lack of sporting spirit and good quality of sportsmen. A country like India should play Football, Hockey, Rugby, Volleyball, which need physical fitness, devotion and mental strength, not cricket, which is dominated by glamour, entertainment, match fixing and scandal. It is seemed to be a circus. Still we have time to improve our condition. It is my pray to everybody to throw Cricket and Cricketers in the sea. Being a son of my motherland, I wish India%u2019s loss in each and every match in this ICC World Fun and Entertainment.
