Cricket should be Banned , What the heck

Rather than putting some junk stuff for starting an opinion I am straight away expressing it.

What I have seen is most of those who are vehemently opposing cricket are those who don’t know much about that sport. They don’t enjoy this game. It’s not their fault. Each person has his own tastes. But what is ridiculous which I have felt is they go on opposing it in such a way they are asking for the ban of cricket. Let’s see the main points they are shouting at

1. People are wasting time watching cricket.

2. Loss of electricity, loss of money, lose of free time, blah, blah…

3. Promote other sports.

1. People are wasting time watching cricket.

If watching cricket is a waste of time what about soap operas in the TV. There are hundreds of mega serials showing in the TV with all the non sense. Millions are watching those daily, losing millions of work hours. Why no body is asking for a ban of serials??

2. Loss of electricity, loss of money, lose of free time, blah, blah…

Cricket tournament will be once in 2 months or maximum 3,4 days per month. But what about these serials. They are playing daily hours and hours.....making the viewers tied to the dumb TV and making them artificially mood out and emotional. Again why no body is asking for a ban on serials. Why only a ban on cricket???

And about loss of money....

See how many crores are doordharsan and bcci are getting for the cricket endorsements. They are the money squeezed from the big business tycoons. This money if not fully a part is going into govt. treasury. I felt this is quite good.Coz this is one way to extract money from those tycoons.

3. Promote other sports.

Cricket is the only sport where India is salvaging some pride in front of world

We are superior to even America when it comes to cricket. Is there any other sport India can boast like this. Yes we have chess. So what shall we do? We should watch chess for 5 6 hrs continoulsy.should we watch anand sitting in a glass chamber making moves. I am not saying we should not watch. Who ever wishes can watch. But majority enjoy cricket in India .That’s a fact.
