Sponsor |  uma | Feb 24, 11:32pm | | Ever thought as to why are Indians obsessed with cricket too much? We do not show this passion to any other game. |

Btw, Umpiring was bad (as usual). Few wides were eaten. Few lbws were not correct. The short run of Uthappa wasn't short, etc.
Oh yea, and we also suffer from Sreesanth factor. He should be shown the door. |

| | arunsharmaC | Feb 27, 9:31am | true Uma i wonder why its like that ...?? I remember how the indian hockey team was not given proper credit for their win ...just few days I was reading in the paper how the badminton camp had to close down the reason being :no cocks . :D
I think one should curtail the involvement of the government in sports.Instead have public private partnerships in the same way we had with hockey and cricket.Yes,cricket would still rule in terms of money but atleast the other sports would get some due. |

Sponsor | | induscrypt | Feb 27, 10:07am | I love watching hockey, especially the Asian teams. But it seems hockey is out of favour all over the world. [Maybe we can blame stats guys :-) Cricket statisticians give people something to cheer about even when the team is losing. In hockey, they can't even tell you how many goals a Player of The Year had score over his career.]
BTW- I liked the Sydney ODI on Sunday.One of the best in recent times for us. |

|  Funepets | Feb 27, 9:49pm | | Guess it is an easy game to learn and play. Not very expensive either. No need for special courts or expensive equipment. All that a team of kids need is a ball and a bat. |

| | animesh1978 | Feb 28, 12:58pm | | ^^ That's what I meant by adaptability. You can play cricket in a small room to a big field :) You can't do the same with football or hockey. |
