Nice Article!
by Manoj Joseph on Oct 10, 2007 01:51 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

Nice article.. I hope our Indian team members will surely read this and learn something from it to improve their game accordingly.

Let them concentrate more on the game cricket than these verbal fights, which will only help to demoralise the team. Also, Australians may be good in handling such tricks to their advantage, but our culture is to give them back it in the best way, that is defeating them in as much games as possible.

Yes.. they (the aussies) wants our players to respond to their abuses verbally.. as that will distract our players from their job in hand.. This is exactly what they want.. It is more prudent not to fall prey to these games and concentrate on scoring runs / taking wickets..
If you give way to your emotions, it will be disaster for the team and the game, otherwise, it will be the best thing to do for your country..

History shows that Australians have a very bad past where their ancestors were prisoners of British rule. It might be still in their blood to use all those wrong tacts to defeat their competitors.. However, our culture is much more divine and it doesn't envisage abusing the oponents, instead defeating them in the right way.
Hope our cricket team will do that in the coming games.

Due to the financial conditions in India, there are lot of us (including me) going to other countries to gain more money. That doesn't mean that they are doing something wrong. I know most of such people live like Indians and upholding the Indian culture... There may be exceptions.. We have to ignore such cases..

ashish, there r lots of iraqis,iranians,saudis, afghanis living in US or UK to earn better.. that doesn't mean they all like US or UK.. they went there to earn money and will return to their own country when they r done with it.. thay may even move to other countries if they get better opportunities..not because they love that country or hate the other..its simple money..

Sreesanth's behaviour is very bad.. the example of Venakesh Prasad (during world cup semifinal against Pak in Bangalore in 1996) and Zaheer Khan (during the second test in the last England series) are better way to respond to such cunning tactics.
