EVERYTHING IS FIXED

Once again Pakistan cricket's dirty face unveiled in front of the world by a sting operation of British newspaper 'news of the world'. When it came to light that a London based bookie is behind this fiasco in which seven players of Pakistan has been named for taking money for fixing the match, it became the most ashamed day for cricket. No Pakistani fan ever would have thought that their idol could do that for satisfying their greed. That's why news of pelting stone on donkeys with name written on those of the players are coming from Pakistan. 

The worst thing about this incident that this time the bookie were trying to fix very minute thing such as no-balls etc. This is called spot fixing which deals with fixing minor things instead of whole match fixing, that why it is very difficult to know that any thing like this is going on. In lord test three no-balls were fixed which delivered by Amir and Asif as claimed by Majeed.

By analyzing the seriousness of the issue ICC also suggested for banning the players for life in any format of international cricket. Such a demands came from many more cricket players and organization. Meanwhile Pakistan has denied to ban the players without full evidences. 

This is not the first time when any cricketer found indulging in match fixing and Pakistan had a long saga and expertise in this thing. Before this many international players from many nations have caught for this immoral deed. Cricketer Mohammed Azharuddin, Ajay Jadeja, Navjot Singh Siddu, Nikhil Chaupda, Saleem Malik, Herschelle Gibbs,  Nicky Boje, Mark Waugh Hancy Cronje, Shane Warne, Waqar,Wasim etc has been found involved in match fixing and faced charges.

Also cricket is not the only game which is facing charge of match fixing. In this league football, badminton, tannins etc have been in news for this particular thing.

Around one decade ago when many Indian players were found indulged in match fixing, many many people stop watching cricket match and Indian cricket took many years to come back on the track. Here it would be interesting that how Pakistan cricket will come out of this shit and how much time will it take.

From Srilanka with love

Just a few hours ago when India - Srilanka cricket match was about to start, I was very excited about the match. Due to the recent shor sharaba over Randiv's no-ball issue, it was natural to be so keen for a cricket lover. The match was good in starting but turned out in a nightmare for a Indian spectator since India was losing its wickets in every another over.

In the match no Indian batsman could score even a half century and with the highest score of 38 runs by Yuvraj, Indian inning could just kiss the a ton and lost its life at mere 103 runs.

But the twist was that India's such a low score was not because of Indian batsman's poor performance and great bowling by Srilankans, it was more due to bad umpiring. A total of 4 batsman lost their because of wrong decisions made by the umpires. Probably this is the first time in international cricket when so many wrong decision were taken.

Now I will not say that their is something kala in the hot dal, because last time I was wrong when i stated that Randiv's so called no ball was just a mistake, only later I knew that it was his deliberate action that lessen the spirit of the game and made Srilankan board to keep begging for apologies for a couple of days.

But it is sure that the game has changes so much in last decade or so. With many high level controversies right from the match fixing, ball tempering, IPL ke ghaple etc. to saving the test from T20, ICC is facing a tough time in time of the change.

I think in the last decade cricket has evolved in 'laphange pareende' from a Gentleman now. And with the change it should be make sure that no one can spoil it, and these kind of controversies are not good for the game.

'ye sab to chalta rahta hai' and I'm sure BCCI is good enough for tackle these kind of issues, so aam spectators should consider it a gift from srilanka with love.....

Independence Day

 I wish you a very happy and prosperous Independence day.. On this day India was freed from the British Empire and for last six decade has been ruled by the corrupt and greedy politicians, bureaucrats and other powerful person who has held all the power in their pockets, thus making the country more dependent than it was ever in last five thousand years history..

Anyhow India still is biggest democracy in the world, and i guess is the only developing country in the world which can be termed as a democratic nation, since implementation and sustenance of the governance system in no cakewalk and couldn't be sustained by most of the countries. 

The country is hope for the whole Human race, because only following the path shown by Indian culture could ensure better and peaceful living condition on the planet Earth for a long time.  

So enjoy the Holiday and the don't forget celebrating our own Independence day.

 

सारे जहाँ से अच्छा हिन्दोस्तान हमारा ।

हम बुलबुले है इसकी ये गुलसिता हमारा ॥धृ॥

घुर्बत मे हो अगर हम रहता है दिल वतन मे ।

समझो वही हमे भी दिल है जहाँ हमारा ॥१॥

परबत वो सब से ऊंचा हमसाय आसमाँ का ।

वो संतरी हमारा वो पासबा हमारा ॥२॥

गोदी मे खेलती है इसकी हजारो नदिया ।

गुलशन है जिनके दम से रश्क-ए-जना हमारा ॥३॥

ए अब रौद गंगा वो दिन है याद तुझको ।

उतर तेरे किनारे जब कारवाँ हमारा ॥४॥

मझहब नही सिखाता आपस मे बैर रखना ।

हिन्दवी है हम वतन है हिन्दोस्तान हमारा ॥५॥

युनान-ओ-मिस्र-ओ-रोमा सब मिट गए जहाँ से ।

अब तक मगर है बांकी नामो-निशान हमारा ॥६॥

कुछ बात है की हस्ती मिटती नही हमारी ।

सदियो रहा है दुश्मन दौर-ए-जमान हमारा ॥७॥

इक़्बाल कोइ मेहरम अपना नही जहाँ मे ।

मालूम क्या किसी को दर्द-ए-निहा हमारा ॥८॥

Making it in the Indian way

India is all set to organize best commonwealth game ever, as they say. The preparations for the games are going on with full speed.  A lot of finance has been approved by the government to show the world that India doesn’t short of the ‘Money’ as they think about us.

But as you know no Indian government’s work, function or project completes without the element corruption’s contribution. Here also it is now clear that there is something ‘black’ behind or under the undergoing projects of the mega event. For last one week media has been showing more and more news every passing day related to possible scam in organization of the games. The reports say that the organizing committee has done many scams in a single event. Right from contracting, which includes taking equipment on lease for  `10 lac, whose cost is just around ` 4 lac and purchasing products more than 2000% higher than their market price??

Such news started coming for last a few days and now the frequency has been increased so much, people have already very negative image about the games and now such news will make the case more worse. In such scenario it would be very difficult for the India to make it the ‘biggest ever’ kind of thing.

Between in all these things one thing is clear that the games have been Indianised this time and such small things like ‘big scams’ does make it only more Indian. Doesn’t it??
