INDIAN TEAM.
by shadab anwer on Apr 04, 2007 07:31 AM   Permalink | Hide replies


Daily we are receiving countless mails, showing pictures of Indian cricketers as barber, milkman, coolie, cook, butcher etc etc. Just answer these questions before we go ahead%u2026



We go to temples, make lots of wishes to god, some of them come true, some don%u2019t%u2026will you start burning effigies of gods and godess..if god can fall short of our expectations%u2026they are just human beings!!!!!!!


India is still a developing nation, most of us come from average middle class families. tell me if tomorrow..microsoft,google or sun comes to you and offer you ten times what infy is paying..what will u do????Every one of us is striving for more money..these cricketers are not the family members of TATA n Birlas%u2026like us they do ve every right to make money..they do so cuz they have the stuff..like ur here in infy cuz ur gud enough for it.




India ranked no.6 prior to start of wc-2007%u2026!!!!!!!!!!if a no 6 team can so easily win the wc%u2026.guys n gals%u2026be ready all of u r going to onsite tomorrow..as a PM/GPM/SPM or who knows Nandan might nominate you as the next ceo of ITL tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


How many among us are IITians or have come even from top 10 engg colleges of India%u2026(????)but be honest haan%u2026you must have taken all these exams n entrance..after class 12th but u didn%u2019t succeed!!!rite as simple as that!!accept ur failure!!!what ur parents did%u2026they started mourning over the dummies kept as your dead bodies..or they also burned your effigies..did ur mother stop giving you food or father stopped giving u pocket money!!!!haan..they backed you..always supported you paid heavy donations and fee to let you complete ur engg and beared all your other expenses till u got the right job!!!!!!these cricketers are our fellow Indians our very own blood%u2026they are going through a rough patch of time so instead of backing them up we are abusing them..




Your mom n dad calls u late in the night ur still at ur office..they say ..son ..go n have ur dinner...work hard..do your best%u2026.when u will get salary hikes..promotion..or remember your college days%u2026dad calls u..son why r u getting less marks in every subject%u2026YOUR REPLIES::::::::::%u201Doh common%u2026dad,mom u don%u2019t understand..it really tough,only I can understand bla bla %u2026.guys%u2026.same is the agony of these cricketers%u2026no one can understand how it feels to be in the middle..n burdened with expectations of a billion ppl%u2026.shame on us we hardly live up to expectations of merely two persons(our parents!!!!)!!!!


We produce false certificates,claims to get posted at our desired locations..or if not we will run away to our hometown..on a leave%u2026saying %u201CI am feeling homesick%u201D!!!Remember Sachin%u2026wc-1999 his father died in India%u2026while he was in England he came n rushed back to support and play for his team n country!!!!!!how many of us can even think of this !!!




Lastly it%u2019s the mistake made by ourselves that we don%u2019t consider a game..just as a game%u2026its we the ppl of India who made these cricketers dummy gods..simply fanatic..thank god fans in Zimbabwe,Canada and Netherlands are not like us or imagine what they would have done to their teams if expecting them to win world cup!!!Try to live up within the spirit of the game%u2026take a game like the way it should be.


Frnz%u2026this is a tough time for our cricketers and their families..stand beside em%u2019 support them they badly need it..they are already upset don%u2019t add up to their agony n pain..




N lets get together n say%u2026HOO-HAA INDIA%u2026..PHIR %u201CAAYEGA%u201D INDIA!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for a long breathing essay,i shd say!!!.
But i differ from your view, if a country doesn't have enough infra in cricket and the exposure of cricket in international era, can beat a team where the cricket is a releign how can u accept that!!!. if your are not showing ur anger , they could take it for granted, we are all doing all these opposition simply aganist their complacency and not to their skill or their mental prowness. We know they can but why they have failed and we shd insist that they shd not atleast in the next future!!!
