Shame on you.....!!

Soon after India's exit from the World Cup,
there were anguish reactions all over the
country. The Indian team accountable for the
loss, hardly did any justice to the billion
people who were ready to give anything to
watch their heros play. Being a big fan of
Rahul Dravid, I feel really bad of his
activities after the WC debacle.
He wasn't brave enough to face the media
soon after the team reached India. People of
India, undoubtedly the biggest stakeholders
of the game of cricket deserve at least an
apology by the whole team after their poor
show in the WC. Inzamam has to be praised as
he met the press after they reached Pakistan
and took the whole responsibility for the
humiliating defeat. He also answered all
questions that were fired by the press.
There were hardly any message for the fans
out here from the captain.
It was evident that the players were shaken
by the firm steps taken by the BCCI to
cut-down the endorsements to 3 per year,
which is really good. The defensive stand of
the board has never helped them to improve
the quality of cricket and hopefully, this
is the right time to push this forward.
After a series win, it might become difficult
for the board to impose such restrictions on
the players. The players in India are
actually the paid more than the world
champions. This is the testing time for the
players as they are to choose whether to
play for the nation or to play for their
sponsors. If a player(no matter whoever it
is) refuses uphold to the regulations framed
by the board, it amounts to saying that they
are not willing to play for India. The real
faces of the cricketers are to be exposed
likely in a week's time as the people of
India would come to know the outcome of this
issue.
Finally, the Indian captain reacted after
the BCCI announced its stand in the
endorsement issue, calling out for a healthy
dialogue between the players and the board.
Its really a shame on him for showing keen
interest on the commercial part of the issue
rather than coming out with an apology
message and talk about the re-building the
team. It clearly shows the attitude of the
players and their commercial interests,
rather than taking the pride of playing for
the nation.
The team may have been upset by the
reactions back home(burning effigies,
attacking players' houses, etc) but these
things happen in a country like India where
a team has got a billion supporters. Which
country in the world has got a billion
supporters who are crazy about cricket?? If
you do not want such reactions, then you
shouldn't be playing for India, you should
be playing for Bermuda rather....
Both India and Pakistan were knocked out
from the world cup in the first stage, both
teams had tough times back at home, but Inzi
was brave enough to face the public and
at last won many hearts!!!
