Re: 2nd ODI - India vs Sri Lanka @ Rajkot. Feb 11, 2007.
I agree with Some1 on the point that cricket gets more than necessary coverage in india and pak, maybe even SL. Its a desi mentality not limited to india only. We can whine about it but who can say no to 1/3rd of the world's population?
Also Some1 loves the game more than he loves the colours of the pyjamas the players are wearing. Many people will respect that. And its true for the game's sake, a tense match being played in a minefield somewhere in england is more truer to the game than watching your favourite pinch hitter make the ball constantly disappear out of the ground on a pancake pitch. Reminds me of India vs Pak 2nd test last year. Yes it was fun watching Afridi smack Harbajhan for 4 sixes on a dead pitch but whats the point if he cant do an encore anywhere outside Pakistan?
