Cricket in India

Three things are a must if you want to know about India.
1st: Politics
2nd: Cricket
3rd: Hindi films

Recently cricket players were auctioned like paintings and vintage cars. A country where 20 to 30% of the people find it difficult to get two meals a day, a country where corruption is in every field, morality at it’s lowest, terrorist activities in the name of Mao activist, Ulfa activist etc are on the rise the young generation is mad about cricket.This type of circus should be banned by a democratic society or else more destructive society will come out in next few years.
Our cricket team has not won a world cup since 1983 . The BCCI is the Don of world cricket because 80% of money comes from Indian public.
To sum up what they do? read this poem written by no other than Sanjoy kumar Satpathy
some time back.

Paper tiger
*******************


A team of millionaire

A team of blasters

A team of experts

A team of record breakers

A team of models

A team of losers

A team of mediocre

In media they call it team India

You are sixth amongst ten

You are eighth amongst twelve

You are nothing in ICC

You lose every match

But get millions

A run cost a fortune

Your daily wage can build a house

But the rest work and work

As they can’t meet both ends meet

They are called Indian farmers

Players get richer doing nothing

Farmers plough land to get harvest

Workers in blast furnace produce steel

Still they are poor as they are Indians

But you produce nothing but get every thing

You produce tears in our eyes when you lose

But you continue to walk on ramps

Oh paper tigers we had enough of you

Do some thing or perish

Win for the country and bring the lost glory
