CWG or Ind/Aus Cricket Series

From last so many days or weeks i guess i am reading in newspapers , Tv news Channels , Tweets from my friends , comments on facebook about CommonWealth Games. People making Humour on CWG also on Honourable Kalmadi. Media on the other side putting some spices and this has now become a hot topic for their increase in newspaper sales. Tv news channel showing everyday something different to gain TRP's. My Blog here is not about saying that it has created an irritation or everyone is now having same topic to speak and also i do agree that its a disgrace on our country's part.

Being an Indian i am ashamed and moreover the Indians who are staying abroad would be feeling more shameful. But again if we go back rewind years and years before there was a sport Hockey which is now no more our national game except on papers and in the text books of the school going kids.This is the country where there were examples given of Dhyanchand , Vishwanath Anand , Prakash Padukone , Milkha singh etc. But all these were not Cricketers each individual is and was a legend in different sports. I was surprised last week when i heard school going kids talking about happenings in Champions League and the name of the players they were talking about even i have never heard.

From all this point i can understand only one thing that today in India if any sport which is given importance and which is much much more in Limelight is only Cricket.Who cares who is winning a gold , silver or bronze medal. My few friends have shared some pictures of the CWG athelets Village and it was pathetic. The room where the sportsman are going to reside..i have no words to say for it. But lets go little ahead from New Delhi to Chandigarh and if we click the pics of the Hotel rooms where there is Australian Cricket Team has put up then you would say wowww.It would be a president suites. Thanks to sponsors..

No parents will tell their child to take up a sports profession if it is not a cricket and ofcourse in India there are no footballers like Messi , Beckham , Drogba , Kaka who are born yet even if we look football is only played much in local schools and a Salgoancar club in Goa. The most important thing that after few months there would be a Cricket World cup 2011 in Asia and that time the media and public has to see the arrangements , ofcourse Mr Pawar would be personally involved being a president of NCP and also of ICC..Applause..

I am trying to deliver only one message through my blog , that India is not a country for other sports its only for one sport that is Cricket coz there is more of money , shine and five star lifestyle the players sell themselves for huge chunk of money. I would hope that one day comes that our young generation would also look at other sports and they would give examples of all those legends whose names i mentioned. I also hope that CWG go well and our Ministry keeps retained the pride of our country.
