Don't play badminton, play cricket!


India and Pakistan clash again. In peoples' psyche, not on the battelfield. The boys are face to face to send the ball all over the way to the rooftop. To raise their pitch of the voice, not in hatred; but in an attempt to pack the batsman back to the pavillion, got out after a collective LBW appeal. Cricket is not like tennis or badminton. Where the ball keeps moving from one court to the other. Tennis ends the spectators up in awe, as they pursue the ball from one court to the another. With every shot that sends the ball to the 'another' court players think loudly in their mind "the ball is now in your court". So play cricket. It helps thwart any attempt to find excuses.
