Why players become greater than CRICKET in INDIA?

Question

Senior players think themself greater than CRICKET.They never work hard to improve performence rather spoil carrir of genius young players

Answer 1

That is because India do not have a good bench strength of talented players just like Australia have. Hence senior players take their place in the team as granted as they very well know that no talented players are available in the reserve to replace them.

Answer 2

It's because the fans have made them this big. These players have worked hard but I don't think they ever entered cricket to become huge celebrities, but that's what has happened anyway.

When India wins, people treat the players like Gods. Then they are seen everywhere, on TV, in magazines, on huge billboards. The media give them such importance and people accept it and want more. Some players have become brands, they appear in so many other places apart from on the pitch, that they've become more important than the game itself.

Answer 3

most players are self centered , and when they get the adulation they get lot of marketing opportunities. more money ---- feeling that you are far apart from others ----
more and more self centered --------- less cricket
---- downfall of team

So only a little effort at the beginning is necessary mostly on home soil and responsive wickets.

talent is not equivalent to performance and results.
Indian players believe that by grace of god given talent they
will remain invincible.

every 4 years they get found out.

i n three months all will be forgotten , they will thrash all comers at home,average indian fan doesnt travel outside india so for him the player who thrashes others will become gods gifted child .

fans spoil the cricketers and then marketing guys profit.
So dropping an idol becomes more of a marketing issue then, who knows they may be getting involved in selections too.

Answer 4

You speak absolute rubbish.

#These cricketers have dedicated their lives to the game. Sitting at home you cannot judge the sacrifices they make and the effort put in by them.

#The very fact that they are senior cricketers is testimony to their ability to perform over long periods consistently. Non performers don't stay in the team. Do not judge them by 2 matches at the world cup. The Indian fan's memory span is only one week, which is a pity.

#Why don't they have the right to earn money??
Only performers get sponsors. Only if you perform on the field will you get ads to do. They barely spend 1-2 weeks a yr in shooting commercials. It's only that those ads are viewed by you time and again.

Answer 6

Because of You and Me. We treat them like they have come from another planet and stand in 'Q' and buy tickets, buy the products sponsored by them, go after them for autographs and crowd round them.

These fellows take huge money from cricket and much more than that from the sponsors ( who sell useless items/products in the name of Cricketers and Actors. These actors and cricketers never use these items).

They never take risk in playing like the Bangladeshis and Sri Lankans since they know that they cannot be changed. They have vested interested support from their states, sponsors, cricket board members etc. There are state Governments like West Bengal who support individual players. Some players consistently come from only some states. Some states are ignored.We have unfortunately Bengalis, Maharashtrians,Kannadigas, Punjabis, Delhites as players , no Indians.

Hell of lot of money is in this game. So there is all GOLMOL.

Answer 7

Because they get political & sectarian backings in BCCI itself. They r greedy & money hungry & r badly spoiled by dirty mined industrialists who use them in ads for their cheap ends destroying standard & quality. Pamperings , mafiaism, hawkism ,daddgiri & other sorts of goondaism in players & BCCI must stop before public takes laws into is hands & stops any match through boycotts & general strikes as it is fully succesful in Kashmir valley to cripple any wrong & illegal thing imposed on them there dictatorially to let the world know that they want their basic & fundamental basic right decided by UNO in April 1948( under UN Charter 7 international law) which is irreplaceable by anything outside UNO by any other things of fraudulent manipulation type like ( all BOGUS ) so called assembly elections etc., all rejected by UNO itself. That is all fraud & not decision by honesty & justice. Kashmir is a disputed zone & not at all integral part of any country. It can not be provd to be so.

Answer 8

Because fools like us watch the matches on TV as if that is the ultimate goal!!

This viewing game on TV by us gives the channel to put on air more advertisement and in turn more money to players.

So stop watching the game on TV then the advt revenue will fall. So players will not focus of advt but on game.

Big question: Who will bell the cat?

Any way stop watching or following the game and you will gain time to do better things in life.

Answer 10

It's NOT just Indians but Cricket World as a whole, including another Best Brian Lara that considers Sachin Tendulkar the greatest player of modern times. He most certainly has proved it in every regards, and I certainly suggest you ACTUALLY look into his record and achievements. He only had a slump for couple of years and now bounced back, still not at his best and at the level he once was, does not take away his remarkable achievements. Even the Great Viv Richards slowed down at the end, so you don't consider him one of the greatest batsman?? Sachin Tendulkar is NOT considered the greatest batsman simply b/c of his achievements and score, but the way he plays, the flare and mastery he has, how he mesmerized everyone around the world. Name any player who can play like Sachin Tendulkar, any player who can play as many and every kind of strokes as Sachin, a batsman who took on the greatest bowlers. Batsman started playing at the mere age of 17. Every player past and present sang Sachin's praises, great Don Bradman compared Sachin to himself and Sachin Tendulkar only modern player in Bradman's Dream Team. Sachin Tendulkar considered to be extremely rare few, joining as greats as Gary Sobers, Don Bradman, Viv Richards, Sunil Gavaskar, Brian Lara . . . . So its not SHOULD he be considered BUT SIMPLY he is One of the GREATEST BATSMAN in Cricket History . . . undeniably proved and accepted and suggested as such by Greatest Cricket Players themselves. He is the Greatest Batsman of our Generation, and One of the few Greatest Ever.
