So... its my first blog. I am here to give my views on cricket- almost anything and everything a teenage with little knowledge of the game can think of in his free time.
Oh Well I forgot to introduce myself.
I am vishal, 17 year old who really likes cricket and all other things(mostly) a typical 17 year old likes.
Unfortunately for me i haven't got the talent to match my interest in the sport. I mean, forget the talent you got to have all those adjectives defining your personality i.e dedication, determination, perseverance and all that... which is not exactly my weakest suit but not my strongest either. I am pretty good at school level but a few matches played against my mates isn't going to win me any points, is it? i know cricket in theory. Practically applying it is the little problem.
when I was small the only profession i wanted to be in was cricket. I then realized that this was going to be very tough, most likely improbable. I became depressed because i loved this game so hard it hurt.
Then came the commentators- god bless them- and I saw that they were being paid just for watching the game and giving their expert views on it . I thought why not?(not the money part,!!! just giving my views. I am really modest that way.)

I may seem young for this but believe me if I say that I have watched so many cricket matches that I know exactly what the commentators are going to say next ball. (well that is not a big thing to brag about. Anyone who has seen at least 20 matches can do that but it is still fun trying to impress your parents.)
In life everyone has one passion which however many for whatever reasons may not be able to pursue. It may be in academics, dance sports etc.
I like this game of the gentlemen. It has really captivated me. The brand new ball, the swing one gets of the pitch, that exquisite cover-drive..... sorry got lost there.
What I am trying to say by beating around the bush is that when one has got a hobby or a passion one must never give it up. That's what stays with you till the end. Always pursue it and someday, you never know you may get to practice the profession you love.
I would love to go on but this is not a philosophical class and I doubt whether any of you will be thrilled to get "life lessons" from a 17 year old.
The problem is once I start I get too lazy to stop. My apologies.

ReplyDeletethat is right and it is happening right now in Ranji trophy where games are being played on green seamers.

ReplyDeleteNice start man! Cricket! My question to you is that Do you think that Cricket could've been invented from baseball…….the latter being invented in 1839…..and the former one not having any proper origins…..Will be waiting for your expert comment (Commentary xD)
ReplyDeleteits actually the other way around. believe it or not cricket was actually a very popular sport in the USA and Canada.Due to Civil war and national temperament of the country it has now declined. baseball was thus preferred to cricket
