Tea for two ---------



"If I could invite anybody for 'tea for two' today it would undoubtedly be .....................(11 Indian players in Adelaide)" 

It definitely has to be Current India Cricket Team (11 member-touring Australia - Adelaide), why so…

From childhood I have been on a constant diet of cricket and have idolized many past and current cricket players for various reasons, (It is not only because of their playing standards but also for the character they do play on and off field)

Along with me, I am sure many of you would be sadden state witnessing the current performance of our beloved Indian Cricket Team is putting up in Australia.

During my childhood days, in my early schooling days, Once my mum had called me up made me sit besides her and explained me the importance of scoring nice marks/grade as I did not fair well in one of the recent test we had, (As per her I did not do it well).

Second time around I was not made to sit but was questioned on why my marks/grade were sliding down and she was looking out for reasons why I am not doing it correctly or has something changed…

Third time (did not came) but if it would have occurred, for sure I would have to under go a series of intense improvement session, I would have to give away all my play/fun time, I had to cut short my cartoon network time and many more so..

Similarly, I feel if out team is failing it is not because they do not have the class rather I will say they are the people who define class… collective our players have attained, have successfully reclaimed the heist in each section of the game…

Why fail… it is easier for me to criticize sitting on the other end and easy enough to grunt on social media….

Why are we failing I am not sure…. But all I would like to say to My India Cricket team….

‘We have another three day’ let try to do some soul searching…. And lets put up an stand… do not look what has gone by… looking at them would only sadden you and more important will only disguise your present…. Its time to let go the past and look forward for the next three days…. I am not asking each one of you should be scoring 100 and each bowler to take a hat-trick… all I want you to think is…

“Can we give a Stand… not to prove other (media / sobbing fans) what you can do… or rather… let say ‘Yes we can’”.

Indian Cricket Fan forever….

That's a lot Preeti, for stopping by...
After the tea things stil not work the way as I guess....

I guess that what life is all about can't expect all what you seek at time.
But it should not from trying and chasing...

Cheers,
