Clash of Ego's overtakes the spirit of cricket

It was a dull saturday.. Literally interms of the no of participants and also with spirit in which the game was played. @ 7-30Am in the morning only 7 guys turn up which dampened the spirits of the people assembled. As time passed, 2 more guys dropped in. All the guys who had replied the rollcall as coming chickened out... Only 9 people total

Game started with the Santosha's batting first scoring 60 runs in 8 overs.. Team batting second started with a good chase.. but the highlight of the saturday cricket was the sudden outburts between majid and santosha at the end of the second innings...

It was a clear indication of the clash of ego's.. The incident which led to this altercation was nothing serious. But it was a clear example that when some one takes it personal.. these kinds of incidents happen. Its not blaming any of the person involved.. Just a awaking call to every one not to take any incidents which happen personally. We all have a long way to go and some small such incidents should not dampen the spirits. We all should put such incidents as a bad dream and should come back with double the energy to the field next week.

The match came to a nailbiting finish with santosha's winning by 1 run. Fine batting by Sandeepa helped the Bapats to take the match to the final ball.

Hapy Gouri and Ganesha festival wishes to you all in advance....
