The Match!

Besides, It's been ages since I've watched any match at all. Despite all that activity that's going on, I happen to catch a glimpse of the match while India was batting, I guess about 30/1. While I stood there, they performed well. I liked the feel of a six-hit and the zealous expressions on our Indian faces after raising the ball out-of-bounds for the Australians. Also, I loved the way the Ausi's jumped, free-flexing their bodies, and skid-forcing the prisoner-on-the-run, captive(!). I also liked when one of them returned back to the crease-line, he fell for it, as if a dive of something, unlike what usually is seen. The batsman rushes but, he's still standing while the bat crosses the line. Either of them is comparable to the other. Though only one is able to score higher, always.

Towards the body-activity of the players, I happened to notice something, which makes sense even in everyday life, the fitting of the field-costumes of the Ausi's and those of the Indians.

I somehow feel, that our lose T-shirts, may be one reason why we may not be as active on field as our opponents. The extra flow of adrenaline, which flows-through, when one wears a comfort-fit (almost skin-fit) costume is something that many of us may have realized. Its like the difference, between a loose T and a skin-fit T. I think it makes a difference while on-the-run in the field too. It's gives you energy which the loose outfit doesn't. After all, we must realize that we are both the same species. So neither can really have anything special. Its just a matter of the way we think and organize and interpret our thoughts. So it keeps away the matter from being investigated.

Aren't all of us the same(?). It's just the way we arrange things for ourselves and our body. And off-course, the confidence we assume in others, digressing from our own-self-confidence.

Did we ever try to work-out on the problem, why we unnecessarily lose matches when we were to win(?). Did we bother to think that maybe our opponents, think about it (i.e., why they unnecessarily won the match)(?). We are often too happy with the results, that little thought goes into what made that result the way it came-out. Anyway, that's just my personal view.

Plus, I am very sure, the intake of fresh citrus fruits also augment to the responsive Ausi's enhancing their proactive selves.

Overall, laden with uncertainty, the match was good, but I feel, maybe, whenever there is a happening match, it would be great if we could experience (i.e., watch) it in a theater rather than on modest television screens. It would be a greater feel of heightened selves that we may experience in a surround environment. I've seen it happen this way at Jaypee Residency Manor, Mussoorie, even though the sound systems were not like those at Wave Cinemas, not ignoring, there was no place to sit there either (that time). One had to stand and watch. But it certainly made a difference. Imagine! 350+ Indians, cheering all-together, in the theater, the amount of energy that would be, the likes of what everyone of us needs in today's ultra-fast paced world.

Rest, I think cricket like most other games, is uncertain. And the pressure and brain activity that one innately goes through may be tiring.

One last thing, I think we should learn to enjoy the match and not just the game by our own players.
