It will have impact on RR if SRH win next game , RR won't be going to Champions League !!

Few Key points to take away from this whole Shit storm

1) Cricket is as tainted as it was once.

2) More Money = More of greedy people around

3) Cricketing Gods true colors will never be out in public. (Because Indian cricket fans are peace loving , fainted hearts)

:shakinghead:

Well I tried not bothering, but couldn’t.

Question 1: If you know Cricket is as tainted as ever, why do you bother following the game. Sensible, level headed people, I think would opt for this option and spare everyone the blushes. But you have been on an agenda for the last 45 days, waiting for one-moment or the other to pounce? But, why????

If you say, you are worried about the plight of fainted hearted and deluded Indians who follow this game, let me tell you….everyone have their own priorities/medium that give them happiness and fun. People in India love following cricket and hence your ‘i-am-a-revolutionst….rrrrrr I question the status quo’ stuff is grossly unwarranted and not necessary.

Let people enjoy what they enjoy. If you are not part to it, stay away. People like Sachin and Dhoni have done more to the nation and its people than what you can even dream of and hence they deserve the rewards/adulation. Period.

If cricket is indeed proved tainted and fixed…..so what??we have had fun thus far and we will find other things to keep us engaged. Nobody can come and complain that cricket has ruined their lives and hence, you don’t need to worry. Everyone ultimately pay for what he/she is part to.


Question 2: Too obvious a statement and is applicable across any class/age/era of people. Not a key-point material this.

Everyone is greedy in one way or the other and some are exposed. Jesus did not admonish his disciples just because Judas was sinister. The other 11 did their job. Likewise, assuming that just because a handful of players have been cheating, the entire crop is bad, is…..plain stupid and immature.


Question 3: I would assume that you are referring to players like Sachin, Dhoni and Kozhi. O.k. let’s give you the benefit of doubt that you are not questioning their integrity, but because you are the ‘i-question-the-status-quo’ type, you want the gods to atleast speak out.

But why and on what basis? You want them to be held accountable just because they are big players making big bugs??

On what basis or on what account, you assume that these players indulge in such activities??

If you don’t have anything concrete, your rants just look a result of ‘sore-grapes’. Let something concrete come out, then we can make them accountable. Remember Tiger Woods????Nobody is bigger than the game.

REQUEST: Please don't use the term 'Rajasthan Cheaters'. Highly respected players such as Rahul Dravid are part of the side.

I give DAMN about what people think / receive my view point(s) !. Its my right to express and question status quo. At ANY Chance I get and in whichever way I want I will question it. If you don't like it . Don't respond , you continue your blind following of cricket. Sensible option for the country will be Corruption free Govt getting BCCI under control and Allowing cricket to flourish as JUST mere sport and nothing else. Rather than asking people to stop following cricket that's immature and kiddish.

I am not sure what so great Sachin and Dhoni Did for Mother India ?, rather representing country they received the status what they have today. So they should be thankful for people for rest of their life. Even greats like Sachin hand several bad patches with injuries and bad form one should always ask how he survived those and his fellow cricketers who also hit bad patch periodically couldn't survive. Think why Sachin was not dropped from the side even when he not performing for extended period of time , when media and critics raised the issue?.. Reason is simple people like mark mascarenhas who entered in to game of cricket with purely one intention making money. It was him who created India's first cricketing brand "Sachin- THE GOD" and many more followed, today practically its an industry inside cricket.
( Having said that I am not debating here whether he is a gift player or not , everyone know he is one of the greatest player of our times, I too agree, even he needed outside support to extend his stay in cricket )

In a cricket loving country like india many families (including mine) Spend / spent fortunes in helping their kids future , hoping / dreaming that even their child/ childern will make it big. (I am not saying everyone will succeed, including me) If the whole game is rigged to the point that it only spits (venom) money and nothing else is a sad state. Do you really think Small percentage of good young talent will get noticed and nourished ?. Big money will also make sure its agenda moves forward rather than the game itself. We are seeing this in front of our eyes.

Mark my words if IPL continues in the same fashion by IPL 8- 10 You will see more foreign players than domestic players. Just like NHL or EPL and others. Is cricket ready for this may be may be not . Is India ready to make cricket betting legal, I don't think so. Middle class families who are following these games passionately will be flatten with new gamble syndicate.

If you consider yourself as "Senior / GOD / Successful" ITS your duty to come out publicly and show your stance. These days all it takes is 140 words or less.

I was calling them : Royal Cheaters: For sake of Rahul Dravid I will call them "Royal Challengers"

I typed even more .. in hurry it got deleted.. next postea !! okvea?

Thanks Gilly!

And good bye Punjab! As far as today's match is concerned nothing to lose for both the side. Nidhanama paakalaam. If Punjab wins it will be 8/8, a tolerable result.
