Ban the game of the sloths!

Cricket is perhaps one helluva over rated sport .Some have said its 11 fools running after a ball .What makes it truly annoying is the commercialization of the sport till its no more a sport. When the logic of sport is to pit a man and his game against another - if money begins to help underplay and succumb, then the essence of the sport is lost .
Never could understand why we had to adopt this slow ,nerve draining British love ! I can understand why pants were adopted -dhoti's dint work But cricket is a national sport and with even one billion we are inadept at mastering the one so called passion of the juvenile males and the not so juvenile too. We should know when to give up - its time we look elsewhere or hit the
"we are pathetic at sport" button and keep dignity .

Ban the game of cricket till the time we know how to play. Someone told me yesterday that India saved 370 million manhours just because we did not made it to the last 8. God bless us.
