There has been many who are barking and spilling their beans on Sunil Gavaskar, one of the BEST
ever opening batsman that was and has been born to the game of cricket and
Maradona who recently on November lost his battle against his life that he
lived.
I start with Sunil Gavaskar . He has always been in
the THICK and the THINS of every storms that Indian cricket has and had to face
and throw at him. He has at times said and
spoken his heart in an telling manner and at times he just gave it a DAMN.
The one cricketer who really has been very
uncertain for many a pundits of the game to describe him- he always has spoken
, at times in QUEST and at times in JEST about the happenings that goes into
the game. He always did POKE the BCCI at the appropriate time whenever needed
rather than to LCK their SPITS saying that it was as SWEET and as DELICIOUS as honey and that cost
his Captainship once in 1978-79 and the other at 1983. Yet he continues in the
same fashion.
Duty
To The Nation
Now-a-days
the cricketers feel that they are doing a GREAT job and their duty to the
nation .
It is all BUMKIM I say. Everything is a DRAMA and
everything is for some GIMMICK to garner that attention of the media. One of
the fact that recently has cropped up is the manner , the way Virat Kohli has
returned from the Australian tour citing his PATERNITY leave or whatever it
could be.
Gavaskar has cited the example of Ashwin and some
new bowler of Tamil Nadu who either have been blessed to become a Father or who
would become the same within a few days
to go.
Correct- it is the duty of the Husband to be aside
his wife when such incident occurs and Virat Kohli is right when he did ask the
BCCI to grant him the leave to be beside his wife for the same. But the
QUESTION IS- WHY DID KOHLI KNOWING FULLY WELL THAT HIS WIFE WOULD DELIVER
BETWEEN THE PERIOD OF DECEMBER DID AT ALL TAKE THE RISK AND THE CHANCE TO GO
WITH THE TEAM AT AUSTRALIA.
Is not the
team and it’s strength that will suffer because of this. Definitely it will.
Will the substitute of Kohli would be so great as to be a sure cool replacement
– NO is the answer. If that was, then right from the word GO, Kohli should have
NOT assisted the Indian team and ONLY after the delivery , he should have
assisted the Indian team by flying to Australia and then assisting the team to
settle with it’s flow. That would have been the BEST, but he chose otherwise.
This is a wrong step that he has taken.
Gavaskar is correct. If the BCCI can permit Kohli
to avail the leave , leaving the team in a FLURY , then why is that Ashwin and
that bowler from Tamil Nadu are NOT given that respite . WHY TWO DIFFERENT YARDSTICK
AND RULS FOR TWO DIFFERENT PERSONALITIES. The rules and the LAW are same for
everybody then why this differentials applied. That is a valid question asked.
Sunil Gavaskar himself had faced this problem in
1976. The Indian team was to undertake a twin tour of New Zealand and
West-Indies. Looking at this and his affair where his wife was to deliver
during the period of March 1976, Gavaskar consulted Madam Marshneil , his wife whether
and should he skip the tour. The lady asked him to escort the Indian team. “ I
WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO COME ALL OF A SUDDEN FROM NEW ZEALAND TO BE BESIDE YOU ,
HE SAID ” . I would manage the affair INDEPENDENTLY and INDIVIDUALLY
the lady replied.
Gavaskar became a DAD on March 10th 1976
when the lady delivered a Baby boy then , on that day and Sunil Gavaskar was
promoted to being a FATHER then, on that day.
HE SCORED A GRITTY AND A
FIGHTING 76 AT WELLINGTON ON THAT DAY ALONG WITH VISHVANATH WHO SCORED A 79 IN
THAT ININGS TO SAVE INDIA FROM A CERTAIN
“ 100% ” DEFEAT FROM AND AGAINST
NEW-ZEALAND .
Today I was looking at the tweet on my tweet page “ Newsshakes ” and everybody were FLAKING and BAKING Gavaskar saying that he as a person just does not understand the value of a husband
staying beside his wife for the critical moment .
Hardly the generation of TODAY which BARKS and
SHOWS-OFF , more, can ever think and remember that on the day when Gavaskar
scored that 76 to save India at New Zealand , doing his DUTY for the COUNTRY
and his team, his WIFE, was all ALONE at the hospital at Bombay then FACING the
deadliest moment to deliver their only child Rohan Gavaskar who too has played
for India.
GAVASKAR NEED NOT BE TOLD AND EDUCATED ABOUT THE NATIONAL DUTY .
Those who are siding by Virat Kohli and BARKING at
him are WORST than the DOGS- the STRAY one’s without knowing the facts and the
sacrifice that he did for his team and for the country on March 10th
1976 at New Zealand, precisely at Wellington then.
Shyamal- Whay Would Have Happened If
Maradona Had Listened To His Mother
Many, many and many from the Latin
American countries had read my article on Maradona on my blog page
BHATTACHARJEE SHYAMAL Blogger during the month of November. Highly impressed by
that, ONE had send me a pictue of Pele crying over Maradona’s EPITAPHIC
scribbled stone and had requested me to insert that picture on the article which
I did and FE:LT proud of of doing so.
Pic :: The TWO " GREAT " Friends and Footballer, Maradona And Zico ,Signatured " GREAT " in '82
Many DO-NOT-KNOW that Maradona’s mummy , ie ,
his mother was a BRAZILIAN who had married a Paraguayan and had shifted to
Paraguay for a short period of time before the entire family shifted to Buenos
Aires for his Father who was seeking a greener pasture at Argentina at Buenos
Aires. Obviously Maradona has a mixed parentage in that manner and quite an
amount Of Brazilian blood in that way.
In my article I had written that he has
and had the Brazilian blood . This fact was NOT known to many, many and many
across the WORLD.
There was one moment, one point in his
life when his maternal Uncle has asked him whether and would he like to play
for Brazil and if he did that he would talk to the Santos and the Flumongoes to
take a trial of him. Maradona asked his mother as to what should he do and he
would do what his mother would ask him to do. That Lady stood MUMM and did not
reply and Maradona assuming that his mother wanted him to play for Argentines,
said his Uncle, that he would play for Argentina. That and there ended the
matter.
A lot of them ever since then kept on and
still ask me- WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IF MARADONA HAD PLAYED FOR BRAZIL
Well the 1978 JUNIOR WORLD CUP would have
been won by Brazil then. It was Maradona who single handedly won that for
Argentina in 1978. Then he would have been the member of the Brazilian
ALL-TIME-GREAT SIDE of 1982 playing along with OSCAR, SOCRATES, JUNIOR, ZICO
and himself in the MID-FIELD section of that Brazilian ALL-TIME-GTREATEST-
Football team and WITHOUT DOUBT the GREATEST-EVER-FOOTBALL-TEAM of the World
that one saw then.
Definitely Brazil would have won all the
FOUR edition of the world Cup from 1982 to 1994, as Brazil, were the winner of
the 1994 edition of the World Cup.
It was not and it would NEVER have been
any doubt about it. The DOUBT is WHOM WOULD HAVE THE BRAZILIAN COACH DROPPED OF
JUNIOR, OSCAR, ZICO, SOCRATES AND MARADONA if Maradona had played for Brazil in
the 1982 World Cup.That is a question of CONJECTURE.
Many keep on asking me- HOW WOULD HAVE
BRAZIL PLAYED then if Maradona had played for Brazil as he was and he is
HALF-A-BRAZILIAN.
Well- the answer is the manner the LIME
are SQUEEZED to extract the juice out of them and the manner the LIME-PICKLES
are LICKED and then GULPED, the same would have been the manner that Brazil
would have done to every team.
What would happen if BRAHMA-VISHNU and
MAHESH stand at the same place to expedite their duty.
THAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED TO THE TEAMS
OPPOSITE BRAZIL , AND PLAYING AGAINST BRAZIL IF SOCRATES, ZICO AND MARADONA had played
TOGETHER for BRAZIL.
That sums it up and that is all.
Well , that is it and That sums it all.
Regards and Thanks

😄😃🤣ha ha ha yes one of the most wished desires of million fans that will be etched in everyone's thoughts never again to be materialised. Oh what class and treat to watch. Those matches it would have been, a complete bonanza for the game's followers. One thing I do dreaded then, the globe nations might plan for a different world cup with Brazil playing only with this world cup champions, for Brazil to be crowned the super champions, or simply champion of champions. Then we can get to call the Brazil scored goals as tracer bullet.
ReplyDeleteAll the Indian cricketers needs to be thankful for the person called Sunil Gavaskar. If not for him, cricket for sure would not have been so popular with the Indian population as it's now. A beacon of light in a otherwise dark world of Indian sport's except for some flicker once in a while as an exception. Need to see the rival of S.G. namely Marshal, Roberts, croft, garner, lillee, thomson, imran, sarfraz, bob, botham, old & many more all without a helmet. Wonder sg record of 771 is broken or not??
