by Atal Advani on Mar 29, 2007 12:10 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

there are already some girls and women who have started screaming "forget it let these shameless cricketers go" I perfectly respect their feeling and I know this is INDIAN GREATNESS but sorry I am not like that I am not letting them go without the answers ...what have they done wrong? THEY HAVE RUINED THE STATUS OF INDIA ...i say it one more time THEY HAVE RUINED INDIA ...again i say it THEY HAVE RUINED INDIA so dont miss the point THEY HAVE RUINED INDIA in the world stage by playing like that....cricket in india was never played the way it was played against bangladesh ...and I want to know why......they have destroyed my self respect as an INDIAN and I want to know why?

i dont think self respect of indians is so weak that it will get destroyed if the cricket team loses... neither will the world suddenly hold india in very high esteem if india wins the cricket world cup..... Intel just announced that it will open a $2.5 bn plant in China.... would india have got this plant if we had won the world cup of cricket?? incidentally china does not play cricket and neither does the US.. Incidentally US is not the cricket or football world cup winner... does it in anyway decrease the self respect of Americans...???
