I quit |

“I quit”- A foolish fan
Fans who never stop being stupid time and again, fans who believe more on pattern matching from year 1981 and 20005 and making analogies to show world how India can win. Fans who start Havaans,Pujas, astrologies to think that its there time now. Concocting already concocted Nostradamus and believing Daruwala just to make sure they remain happy with the utopian imagery of India bringing back the world cup.
Fans who vandalize their till-last-night- hero home after one poor dismissal. Fans who treat the same player like a out of world superhero, batsman with Batman like prowess. Fans who are known to be most religious fraternity starts worshipping a normal human being with more failures than success as a GOD. I dare to say we can’t see, realize and most importantly accept stark naked reality on grounds.
A team doesn’t win because it has a God, a batman,a Wall,Turbanotor,Jumbo – a team wins because of 11 players on the field who are good enough and majority of them achieve their goodness on the field most of the days. Wake up and stop treating the game a way to satiate your emotional ebullience. Stop stopping your lives for cricket. Stop breaking TV screens, stop taking false leave on cricket days, stop discussing about it, cribbing about it.
Time and again we start treating the game larger than life. It is not. A nation’s pride is not trivial to be tagged with a bunch of players who are no more than ‘Quite Good’. Expectations have always been set incorrectly. Particulary when it comes to Indian cricket team. I am disappointed, hurt, dejected like millions of Indian cricket fans around the globe and the defeat should be lesson to all of us not to allow the game to impact our lifestyle.
Being an avid Indian cricket fan and a “typically one of those” kind I know there are still hopes lurking around that Bermuda beats Bangladesh and Indian sneaks through the falling shutter. After all, didn’t we always believe in doing things the other way?? Honing the art of optimism at heart and garroting rationalism in actions.
They don’t have hunger , poor body language, wrong batting order , Irfan in place of Agarkar. C’mon guys give it a break now. Indian cricket team is a group of overtly over rated team and met its fate.Simple and straight, no other reason- neither commercials, nor hairs, neither what they ate last night ,nor coz they didn’t have proper bathrooms to relax, neither it’s true that they didn’t want to win, or they experimented too much. Shal we now allow speculations and discussions to end.huh?
