10 reasons why Indian cricket team is performing well these days( just ignore this world cup, we have won almost all tournament in last 18 months)is not because we are playing good cricket (that’s what anyone of you could have said). The modified theory states that it’s purely because of the underperformance of other nations. Don’t believe me, read further below
1. Team Australia- Come on guys give them a break, if recession can hit United States , why can’t poor form hit Australia. Just a slowdown. But how long? I don’t know.
2. Team England- Well they ruled us for 2 centuries and now we rule half their team. Ravi Bopara, Oais Shah, Monty Panesar, Jeet patel and many others are part of the playing eleven and the worst part is these mixed breed are too Indian for English conditions and too county styled for the subcontinent.
3. Team Pakistan- We don’t need to beat an internally beaten side, pathetic cricket management and security concerns add to their woes. The worst part is since the players tamper with their birth certificate by the time they come out of under 19 to national team, they are too late. Though they have won the T20 world cup recently, but galti insaan se hi to hoti hai! Sorry for being harsh guys, I trust my countries security these days.:P
4. Team Bangladesh- net practices with teams are not matches!
5. Team New Zealand- The best players leave because there isn’t much money in cricket. Yeah that’s why Shane bond left in between and joined the police force. There are more people in a sports bar watching cricket than in the stadium in New Zealand. Cricket is like DDLJ for them being played again and again in the same theatre and the best part is both these things still gather crowd in their domains.
6. Team West Indies – They are too rhythmic in music and cricket. Though the rhythm was broken way back in 1983 when we beat them in World cup finals; they haven’t found their tune since then.
7. Team South Africa- They just can’t make it to the finals and hence never win big tournaments. This has deprived them of the #1 status, they are certainly better than the Indian team but kismat babu bhai, kismat.
8. Team Sri Lanka– Come on guys yes we have some competition. They are a good team, but mostly we manage to beat them, of course we are not such a bad side.
9. Team Zimbabwe- with 79,600,000,000% inflation, and prices doubling in 23 hours, who is buying cricket kits when food is scarce.
10. There are no #10 guys; these are the only test playing nations, the nine above mentioned and India of course. Holland/Scotland/Ireland are good but only when it comes to soccer.
What say you cricket fans?
u have written the actual fact....but why dhoni played T20 like test match ? I can't understnd ...Amendment : Pak form is good as it managed to come to final in both the world T20 and galti bar bar to nahi hoti :)
ReplyDeleteI don't agree to it abhishek.... i believe that we have won these tournaments, as you're counting since the 2007 T20 WC victory, because we were considered underdogs. The pressure of 2x1.15 billion anticipating eyes, proves a bit too much for the Indians...at times!!
ReplyDeleteAll our team need is a lil' jerk to wake them up from their dreams of heightened complacency.(I hope u saw the 1st ODI b/w India & WI)
