This days Indians have shown a great sports spirit. They just forgot everything in the name of sports or more specifically Cricket. IPL fever is on the peak. I suspect that this high temperature is because of cricket fever or something else. You might know what I mean. Well there is no doubt that it is a huge tournament in India and Cricket is in the heart of many Indians. I too used to play cricket for the whole day. I may be wrong but, is sport all about entertainment ?
Well as far as I understand Sports is also about integrity and Nationalism but I dont find any of this in IPL. And in the recent past we all got lost in the hangover of IPL. Maharashtra state's some part suffered from severe drought and million cusecs of water was wasted over the grounds for IPL. Does this people's hunger and their food security concerns anyone.And now the match fixing controversy arise abruptly. Recently two men, by loosing 10 lakhs over IPL betting, abducted and killed a child for ransom money. Are we Indians enjoying this sport or crimes taking place behind the scenes.
Besides, every one knows what happens over the ground. I cant understand what is the need of half naked Cheer leaders over the ground. And now our players are also served by this cheer leaders inside their room. Inspite of high income of this players going in millions, why do they need to destroy their game and their fan's aspirations. Obviously the Organizers must have their role in this fixing. And now they are showing women ( with no knowledge of cricket ) over the screen as showcase to attract female viewers. This IPL is all about money and this money goes in the pockets of its Organizers and Players. This needs to be completely boycotted if we respect our culture and tradition at all. It is an international tournament and it create a wrong image of India in front of the world. It is a wake up call for those who are showing false sports spirit in the name of Cricket..
