| "Indian Cricket Fans would continue to be dismayed;till | | | | I suggest that |
| Indian Cricket Players feel themselves as Indians" | | | | · One; there is need to carry out internal |
| Am I too vocal in my assertions about commitment | | | | budgeting; |
| and dedication of senior players said my husband | | | | · Two external audit of all income generated |
| when trying to share his views as to what he truly | | | | from Cricket matches; |
| mean Indian? Colonel Som Sharma who himself was | | | | · Three distribution of funds: |
| good player had said quote "Till the time Indian | | | | · Limit of awards and perks to players; |
| Players do not feel themselves as Indian, Indian | | | | · Gift hamper to viewers and fans after a |
| Cricket fans continued to be dismayed and let down" | | | | final match; |
| unquote. I did not take his comments seriously but | | | | · Less expenditure on show biz; |
| when I saw Kapil Daa quoting similar views, I realized | | | | Why can not BCCI or other CB donate five percent |
| how correct my Husband was? I have also observed | | | | of every match income to Prime Minster Relief Fund |
| that what so over comments he had made, Indian | | | | of each country? |
| Cricket team performed similar. The moment Indians | | | | Why can not CB under take various disaster |
| won first T20WC, he predicted that Indian will win | | | | supporting packages rather than dumping money in |
| world cup and it proved true later. | | | | banks and giving unwanted incentives and perks to |
| I extent my heartiest felicitations to Ponting and his | | | | players or others? |
| boys who return with more vigor and zeal to avenge | | | | ICT had to understand that while ICT is intoxicated |
| T20WC exit in Semi finals. Their performance though | | | | with T20WC, the Kangaroos are determined to |
| had not taught any lesson to Indian players but left | | | | avenge loss of prestige. How we won Chandigarh |
| many unanswered questions to be explored. I would | | | | match I was myself surprise because I was |
| like to extent my debate on all such issues which are | | | | predicting 6-0 series loss. Let me hope that ICT end |
| rotting and paralyzing non concern Indian Cricket | | | | up achieving respectable looser series 4-2. |
| Player (ICT) and sightless BCCI. | | | | After lot of support of my viewers and their various |
| I noticed that three prediction of my husband for | | | | issues, I would like to record important observations |
| every cricket match generally proves true. How, I do | | | | that despite ICT having world's most of the records |
| not know? First whenever he would comment after | | | | holding players as to why ICT is always loosing |
| observing a player for an over or so as to when he | | | | disgracefully from past some times. |
| would get out, it really proves true in not in next | | | | · One main cause is poor fielding and poor |
| over; but many a times in the next ball itself the | | | | physical health. How do you expect out of shape ICT |
| player would be out. Second, he would comment on | | | | player to match Ponting or Lee |
| a particular player's performance in the match. I feel | | | | · Bad physical health of seniors |
| pride in bringing out to the notice of my readers that | | | | · Next important issue is Lack of Killing Spirit |
| he correctly comments on Ganguly, Sachin, Dravid, | | | | (LOKS); |
| Sehwag, Ponting, Lara, Hyden, Smith and so on as to | | | | · Other Cause is attributed to too many |
| what is the style of getting out. He was so accurate | | | | Catch Drops; |
| in World Cup assessment that he jotted on a piece | | | | · Yet another cause is missing run out |
| the inner edge bolding out of Sachin and Dravid, snick | | | | chances by poorly Wicked Aimed Throw (WAT). ICF |
| ball catch out of Ganguly and out of way ball | | | | would agree that most of the throws of Indian |
| tempering habit of Sehwag of over shoulder bouncer. | | | | Players from boundaries are not wonky or hay way |
| Thirdly, he very categorically said that India would | | | | by an inch or feet; but goes far off; |
| not win World cup 2007 due to Team's Internal | | | | · Another cause of losses what I called TISC |
| Personality Clashes (TIPC), which was brought out by | | | | (Team Internal Simmering Conflict). This attribute of |
| the India TV and Aaj Tak news channels repeatedly | | | | ICT is clearly evident in all the matches. Ever since |
| after a month of shameful exit of Indian Cricket | | | | any senior player is selected, the TISC overtakes |
| Team (ICT) from World Cup.. | | | | team spirit. It needs to discussed with each senior |
| I would debate the ICT on and off very depressing | | | | players and removed otherwise ICT would suffer |
| performances, anger and hatred of Indian Cricket | | | | and ICF would be let down in each crucial match; |
| Fans (ICF) with just one question in mind as to: | | | | · Most important cause of ICT losses is the |
| Why Indian Cricket Players have rarely performed | | | | Lack of Nationalistic Will (LNC); |
| when ICF wanted? | | | | Notwithstanding the above, I would also analyze a |
| Kangaroo's perfect ball's line and length have not only | | | | few other differences whichare very obvious. |
| ripped apart Indian star Acers long batting line but | | | | First difference is the LOC (Lack of Cohesiveness) |
| also had hammered Indian bowlers with flat bat out | | | | Second trait is the Lack of LDC (Espirit-de-Corps) |
| of shape. If I do not count Aussies intentional 30 | | | | what I have seen in Army when my husband |
| Wides to avoid boundaries, than ICT had achieved | | | | participate in organized sports; |
| the ever lowest score feats against Kangaroos. | | | | Third: Lack of KASS (Killing and Struggling Spirit); |
| What is this? | | | | Fourth Lack of Senior players SOC (Sense of |
| Why BCCI is paying such heavy money because it is | | | | Commitment); |
| no one's Baby? | | | | Fifth, Lack of WOW (Will to Win); and |
| Why can not BCCI or Government of Indian and | | | | Sixth Lack of DOD (Do or Die). |
| other countries can evolve a policy to use abundance | | | | If ICT and BCCI will not take my above noted "Sixer |
| of money collected through tickets for upliftment of | | | | of Difference" (SOD) |
| poor and needy? | | | | Seriously, the Indian Cricket Fans (ICF) world over |
| Why can Cricket Boards (CB) be questioned for | | | | would continued to be dismayed by dismal |
| throwing away money to even non performing | | | | performances of Indian Cricket Icons (ICI). |
| player? | | | | Let us hope ICT win at Nagpur or looses with grace. |
