India Team - Boon or Bane
by on Apr 02, 2007 07:21 PM

Hi All,

The issue for indian cricket is that we make people look like superheros and drop them like hotcakes the very next day.
Indian media is the most irresponsible of the lot. No other country apart from pakisthan pulls their team down in public and try's to flare up people emotions. Classic example is france in football WC. No newspaper or Television in france spoke anything bad or ridiculed their defeat. Look at how bad our team was projected when they lost last year finals.

Secondly, it is we, the indian public. We have serious issues like reservations, kashmiri hindu's getting killed and chased out of their houses, 40,000 of them. NONE of us ever speaks or throws any stone on that - neither any media wants to write or report on it.

Third point, why are anyone or ex cricketers so bothered of our players salary or how many ads they are doing....

Please note none of these guys have come up easily into indian team. they are the best of what we have, u like it or not.

No coporate is bothered by any players, tomorrow if we have another star in hockey or tennis, they will move on.( Still feel that sania mirza is the worst tennis player for the money she has earned - 15 crores, and we dont speak abt it )

So, give it a break and take this game ....
