Today i was left without any work. Tried killing time by lying down on the bed trying to sleep, hearing FM, calling friends, reading book on python. Everthing failed and i was left with a lot of time to think about a lot of things. Was thinking about the Cricket match i saw last week when i visited home. Nothing seems to be changing in Indian cricket. Though youngsters come in, seniors are shown the exit doors but the trend continues. The intention of this post is not to criticise. Here are few things which i felt has never changed since i started watching cricket.
1) What ever be the score 300 or 200, Indian team always struggles to win and make sure the match is always interesting.
2) Same way, whether they score 300 or 350 while batting first, they make sure that the opposition come closer to the target.
3) There is atleast one bowler in the indian team who will gift away runs in the final over.
4) Indian bowlers make sure that they don't bowl yorkers even during the final overs.
5) Even if there is just one fielder in the offside, Ganguly makes sure that the ball goes to him for a catch.
6) Tail enders follow the top order batsmen. If the top order batsmen bat well, the tail enders will become pinch hitters and will blast the bowlers to all corners of the ground. If the top order fail, they collapse altogether.
7) Most of the fans switch off the TV once sachin gets out and if the score is high.
8) Last, how bad they perform in a series, there are always fans like me who still support the team and hope they win the next series.
