Every time something happens, we have a horde of people expressing their Hodgepodge opinions. Here are some and my answers to them,
Popular opinion no. 1: Indian cricketers suck because they spend too much time advertising and not enough practicing: This is the most baseless of accusations! How does the opinianator know that the Indian crickets actually invest the time they should be practicing in advertisement. His judgement is basically only based on what he sees on TV. Just because one ad is repeated a 1000 times a day does not mean that more time went into making of the ad. The player could have only spent half a day in making of the ad, and everyone knows that you cannot practice the sport 24-7!
Popular opinion no.2: Fire Sachin because he does not perform: Look at the statistics, refer to: Sachin
Popular opinion no.3: Our crickets are hollow shells of men who cannot handle pressure: The fact of the matter is they are put into this unbelievable amount of inhuman pressure levels by our cricket addicted public.
Popular opinion no.4: Sack Dravid,: Why oh Why would you do that? He is the only captain in the last umpteen years who has not ruined his own game since becoming a captain. Wouldn't a more natural and humane suggetion would be to ask Dravid to evaluate his captaincy style and improve. I mean where do we get this idea that playing musical chairs with the people in the team is going to make the team better? THis is the exact thing that pressures our players.
Ahhh, heck, I am sick of this!
