Its a real shame that our politicians are talking about the performance of our cricketers. They should look at their own performance as the task which has been given to them is much much more important than a game of cricket. (By the way if they don't know what is supposed to be their task, let me remind them: Try to work do something good for the country instead of themselves and their party only.) Cricket is not even a national game. Even when they are talking about the sports, they should try to improve our situation in games like Hockey, Football, Athletics, badminton, tennis where they have national teams (or individuals) representing the country and not a private club like BCCI. Not a single politician is bothered when we fail miserably in Hockey world cup or in Olympics. They only care about the vote bank and now Cricket is popular because of efforts of BCCI, they only talk about cricket. You don't hear governments of any developed countries wasting precious times when their sport teams don't do well, as they have more important things on their mind.
