Today's World Cup match (but India vs New Zealand is on Thursday!) is getting washed off. So I was working on my laptop and thought I will post my observations about the past two matches that India played.
This Indian team has a little too many players with scarce experience. Looks like our selectors got caught on the wrong foot while planning and preparing for the World Cup. (Without any intention of attributing fault upon anyone, could it be rolling into the Modi-era after Dhoni left Captaincy. and I have every intention of referring to my Comment about News events of that time and new additions to it in my book 'Comments And Communications').
So if a tussle is going on, then no wonder that when I was watching Sunday's match, and I usually didn't care about cricket matches before the world cup, that I suddenly felt as if a loom rose from the opposite horizon and engulfed the cricket cyber including me and consequently our batsmen lost their presence off mind on the field and started showing symptoms of unawareness about various active processes on the field. Even I had similar unawareness about my activities while watching the match on the TV. I wonder who all and how many people got affected at that time. But after that, Team India lost wickets and then while fielding neither did their bowlers had finishing sharpness, nor did their fielders had professional execution. In fact, the first wicket was a run out from a chance occurrence. After experiencing the kinds of bettings in Cricket and their outcomes and final results, (which is why I stayed away from Cricket and Cricket matches) could it be that another similar setting is being concocted. And have I put my head into it. Rest of the work can be done by the loom.
Whatever it may be, fortunately we won that Sunday match. Next Sunday it is vs Pakistan. IPYadav
After describing the above experience, I think I will write about batting, bowling, fielding observations in my next blogs.
But here before finishing, I will just mention a small question. I saw it on the TV screen saying "Smith vs Wrist Spin" Shouldn't it be actually "Surrra vs Wrist Spin"? Ponder over it and discuss it. More about it later on. IPYadav
