Indian fans
by Abhi on Mar 18, 2007 10:30 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

Indian public talks about the pathetic records of players. What about the records of the fans?

1. Putting a stand in Eden Gardens on fire in 1996 WC when they could not take in their stride that India will lose to SL.

2. Stopping a match in Asian Test Championship in Calcutta in 1999.

3. Throwing stones at West Indies team in Jamshedpur in 2002 and stopping a match when India wa slosing.

4. Digging up the Wankhede pitch before Pakistan were about to arrive in 1999.


There are many more incidents like this.
So who are worse??? Indian cricketers or Indian cricket fans??? A good point to debate perhaps.

Fans are not responsible to the players, but the players are responsible to the fans.

Fans pay to watch and the players get paid.

Yes it is very true. India as a country is full of people who doesnt have enough brain to decide which is important. May be some literacy could help these barbarians.
