Watching our cricketer fighting each other to win the coveted IPL season II cup; it gives me immense pleasure to see players overcome the fear of overseas playing.
South Africa stint for many young players will definitely give lots of confidence and commitment. They will learn a lot from the African conditions and many overseas players. They will learn the art of commitment and consideration. They will learn about the passion involved in playing the game which is earning them millions of bucks. They will learn about the skill development. Playing cricket is not just about having the skill or the charisma; it mainly is about exploiting the skill and taking advantage of the strengths.
Most say, if you have it in you then you just simply have it but it’s not just about having it in you; it’s about possessing it and possessing it with passion and commitment. That’s what the player like Sachin, Shewag, Dravid, Ganguly, Kumble and may more legend like them give to the cricket world and the world out side. In this season of IPL II we are seeing the different shapes and sizes of these legends; they not just perform but are taking the cricket to a different level.
This does not only take skills, it takes more then that. It takes commitment, passion, vision and exploiting one’s strength. If you ask me, what I will see at the end of the IPL season II; then it’s not the winner team with the cup. It’s the evolution of commitment, confidences and respect for all that we are going to see.
All the best, IPL Season II
