Indian Media and Sourav Ganguly
Published by sushubh January 21st, 2006 in News Channels in India, Newspapers in India, Sports on Indian TelevisionIndian media, especially the news channels have to get over their love for the dude named Sourav Ganguly. If it is not shameful enough that Sourav himself wont issue a statement in media to his fans to shut the fcuk up, we now see a controversy every time he is dropped from the team for even a single match.
What next are we expected to see? People from Kolkata shouting profanities on the bowler who takes his wicket? Was it a planned move from the BCCI who gave Pakistan bowlers money to take the wicket of Sourav Ganguly? Since when have the people of Kolkata joined the Indian cricket team selectors.
They took him on the bloody trip. To put him in the team or not? It is the choice of the captain and the coach. If it does not work for you… Get lost. And Indian media has a big role to play in this. They should stop the coverage of protests against Sourav Ganguly. Once they realize that their actions are not been covered on TV or in media… they would stop themselves.
Keep covering their insanities, you get more. And it would become a never-ending fiasco. Otherwise, I plan to protest too coz the Indian team selectors have not invited Kapil Dev to be a part of the Indian team that went to Pakistan… Considering the Delhi Ranji Cricket team is considering inviting Manoj Prabhakar to play for them in the Ranji Series!
Indian Cricket Team has become SUPERHIT Muqabla off late with Indian Fans Demanding a say in team selection. What next, team choosen by VIEWERS Vote or better still through SMS, ala SaReGaMaPa Challange 2005 style.
