FInally i am into blogging too......
Well the thing that is disturbing me over the past few days is the retirement of our very own Saurav Ganguly.Not that i am a big fan of his but i am not particularly impressed with people touting him as one of the great cricketers of our country....
My question to all those people --
Do they know the difference b/w a good cricketer and a great cricketer...
Saurav for me is nothing but a mediocre player who could find a place in the indian test side just because he was the best among the other mediocre players we had and we have.
They Say that sachin and rahul are among the greats.....I agree..!!!
Both of them average more than 50 and have amassed a lot of runs...(>10000)
and on the hindside we have Saurav who is also seen as a great cricketer averages a mere 40 and just about 7000 runs...So where do we put Saurav then??
Its just a clear indication that indian public are just emotional and leave their brains behind when watching cricket.....Everyone is entitled to their opinion but by calling Saurav a great cricketer we are putting him in the league of the Sachins,the dravids and the Kapil Devs...How awkward does the previous sentence look..???
So think about this.....
