A finance student's perspective :- On India loosing to Bangladesh

The Indian cricket players are needed to be told that they finally earn their bread and butter out of public money and time. We spend our time watching all those stupid matches and advertisements and we pay taxes so that DD can use that money to broadcast matches. And Darling if we stop doing any of these you will be out there like Zimbawe players or Canadian players selling insurance or repairing vehicles. Some might have to go again driving Tractors or may be fishing also is not a bad idea. So we all are stakeholders of this mighty Indian cricket empire.

Now, suppose a company which have lost everything in a Day what is the moral responsibility of the band of their top line officers? If you loose out your stakeholder's money in a night then either you will be fleeing over night with your suitcase (and girlfriend maybe) or you will be sitting in your bathroom with your veins cut or as most of these players like to drink, you might be drinking some champagne with that extra bit of heroine or some other lethal drug to sleep and never wake up. Or you might prefer to jump from the fourteenth floor of your apartment building so that atleast people can see that you went through the same pain, you suffered the same, you felt what they were feeling, you also lost something and you care for their time and money as well as they do. Comeon guyz they don't want you to bat for Pepsi or Coke or Bank of Baroda, they want you to bat for India. They want you to actually go out and make a statement that we are the best.

How long we will keep hearing "Hu Haa India, Haara India". If you have some shame left in you, go and do something which proves that you are also as hurt as we are. Go break your TV, go shoot your hand, go have an heart attack, go try and jump from 14th floor. Don't hide behind that its just a mistake and you will try to improve. This is not just another mistake, this is as good as giving a murderous dose to an ailing patient, you just saw the death of cricket there come on go do something with yourselves. We want you to see hurt and in pain. We promise that we will forgive you for whatever stupid you will do with yourself. We love you ofcourse.

But then, Indian team is a bunch of shameless people (some of them call themselves great also) who go out there without any preparation and push everything on plain luck. These people don't even have the shame to sit there in their rooms and reflect on what went wrong. These shameless creatures are only good enough to give angry look to 17 year old youngsters and then shamelessly will watch him to come out of the crease and hammer them for long sixes. Zaheer should be the first one to learn some modesty. You did the same thing in last world cup final and if you have forgot the hammering, pick out the record book and watch your bowling figures.

Dravid should lock himself in a room and do whatever he want, Ganguly should celebrate a little, Yuvraj can have a bottle of his regular drink and for rest of them, West Indies is a coastal area and people say that the sea there is deep. Come on guyz, jump off what are you waiting for? Do you want people to go around and break your window panes? Well, you are lucky that you play for a country where people easily forgive mistake. Just wait and watch what happens with Pakistani team if they lose to Ire-land. They would run out of places to hide their cars in Pakistan. And may be for hiding themselves too.

Hmmm i might be tempted say its an emotional student's perspective. well whats going: first India losing to bangladesh and then pak losing to ireland( hmmm do ireland play cricket????).Now there will be reactions and reactions to reactions .But in my opinion it was a case of Bangladesh giving a superb performance rather than India playing badly. Bangladesh totaly out played India in all departments . It was not one of those "once in a time chimera" but plain, hard, cold superlative performance that saw Bangladesh beating India. And i am afraid to say at the cost of being sounding like a traitor that ceteris paribus bangladesh have all the chance under the sun to beat India again. Its high time that we should accept the fact although with a pinch of salt that this India team just dont seem to hav that punch which is needed to translate desires into actions . Well u never know team India might beat some good team now butthen also the fire under the belly to win the world cup is missing. Its as if they are just going through the motions.So from a finance student's perspective knowing the importance of time value of money and money value of time i suggest you all to:

1) Dont waste ur valuable time watching India play .Atleast put it at the bottom line of ur priorities.
2)Need for drastic downsizing of level of expectation from India
