The “Cultured” World and The Deported


The deported people are again at it. After getting what they deserved on the cricket field, I think they now want it in debates as well. One of their best batsmen, who can score on any pitch, provided the umpires are with him and bowlers are novice and similar few conditions (10-100 at the most), has started the war of words again.

            I have not read or heard the exact comments. But what I read recently was shocking. That batsman (person who carries a bat with him.. special definition modified to suit players of a country composed of people deported from so called “First World”), allegedly said something similar in meaning to following lines

            India is a developing nation (Third World). The Indian pitches are of lower quality. The Indian players are really good at wasting time on field, they take a lot of time to get ready.. blah blah blah…”

            I won’t waste my time typing what he said. When India loses, no player from Indian team criticizes the entire nation or for that matter entire team of misbehaving, even if the opposition team has “taken one bump catched or managed umpires etc etc”.. But again, that’s a cultured and matured behavior… We can’t expect it from people who boast of a “rich heritage” of deported people. Man.. When our ancestors were writing and reciting literatures like the Mahabharata and the Ramayana, your ancestors were mastering in long jumps, high jumps, tree climbing and some advanced ones in pick pocketing and looting… Don’t even try to teach culture or hospitability or even for that matter way of behaving to us…

            About so called “Third World” tag… You call us third world, and still turn to us when it comes to earning money.. Remember IPL… Man.. If you are so critical of pitches you are playing on or such things.. you should not be here in IPL.. You auction yourself in a country belonging to Third World.. What a shame for you.. This Third World country is buying you and forcing you to entertain its crowd.. Man.. I really feel pity for you…

About the quality of pitches, you are wrong again… India is heaven for Cricket. I think your definition of good pitches means.. the pitches where your team can win or at least draw a match…  The pitches where the ball turns are pitches as well… It tastes your quality to play the ball, which makes you a real batsman, not your four step method

1.      Carry a bat

2.      Watch the ball coming

3.      Close the eyes

4.      Hit the ball using physical strength…..

There were and are a lot of sportsmen in and around India, who could hit a six just by touching the ball.. .. remember GOD’s offside six to Waqar. Now that’s class.. that’s skill.. I can understand, it would take at least 1000-10000 generations for you to understand the concepts of class, culture or civilized behavior.. but at least , in the mean time you can keep your big mouth shut.. After all its better to let people imagine that you are

1. Uncultured

2. Shameless

3. Deported

4. Uncivilized etc etc.. (The list in unending..),

than to open your dirty mouth and conforming it..

 

As I have done it before, One Free Advice

First be a part of world, then learn to live like a civilized person.. Then try to comment on issues that you can understand and then move on to comment on first, second or third world..

The Gentlemen's Game and The Winners

This is my first blog… Never thought I would write it about Cricket… But the timing is perfect… (Self proclaimed) world champs are biting dust… at the hands of gods of cricket… They tried everything.. mind games, sportsman spirit ( by provoking highest run scorer from Indian side and so on). A former sportman (hahaha I know I am kidding whenever I am calling any player from that team a sportsman) even tried accusing GOD OF CRICKET (no need to provide HIS name… :P). But all in vein. They got what they deserved.. Not one, But two tight slaps…: P

 

Long time ago, the game was called Gentlemen’s game. But nowadays, very few countries are playing with cricketing rules.. Not long back.. an year ago…The champs (again self proclaimed) used everything possible to beat India at their home… The tactics included… one bump catch out, umpire’s “timely” wrong decisions, false charges on opposition’s in form offie.. etc etc.. the list is never ending.. They tried the same in India.. managed to catch in form batsman in some controversy and made him sit out ,but could not manage umpires… The matches were played according to cricket rules and the result is out… 320 runs and 172 runs.. both margins really big. When did any team won by that margin last time?.. This proves it all.. Play by cricket rules and you are a minnow..

 

To the self proclaimed BATSMAN.. who could not even understand when the bails were off the stumps… man .. you try to break the GOD’s record.. you must be kidding.. how many centuries have you scored against strong teams and how many times you were given out in a wrong manner in your ninties???  Count GOD’s missed centuries ( missed b’cos of umpires)… even that number will be greater than number of centuries you have scored (that too against weaker teams).. In your entire career as a player (I am purposely not calling you a sportsman), were you for a single time, the best player in team??? Or were you a mentor for entire team?? Or has your coach ever said that no one is qualified enough to coach it..

 

Forget it.. Now you know.. who the real winners are…

 

One Free Advice to the real loser .. Go and learn some rules of the game of Cricket.… and practice playing by those rules.. It’s better to play by the rules instead of provoking opposition, false accusations and managing umpires, although it is more difficult.. After all it’s a Gentlemen’s game.. hardly your cup of tea…
