A plight for Hockey
Besides being a miraculous game in itself cricket has intrigued its way into every Indian heart, its charm is indispensable and inevitable and which is incomparable and inseparable with any other surrogate(be it football or hockey), sorry to be harsh on our national sport (one is not expected to discuss one's infirmities in public) but with the passage of time the kind of exposure the game has received wouldn't it be prudent enough to change our national game with cricket, as in every corner of the country, be it the suburbs or the center of the town we will find a Sachin hitting a six or a Harbhajan bemusing the batsman. The game itself has entrenched itself in the veins of every Indian and we sure cant get rid off our veins.
Being a bad sportsmen is as good as being a good one because of two main reasons
first, nobody expects you to perform good , in a way you are spared with the pressure and you enjoy up to the fullest .
second, the best part of being an underdog or a low level performer is the charm u see on everybody's face when u fortuitously take a catch , hit a run out , notch a six on the last ball which is invaluable and cannot be traded for anything .
