Lessons from our cricket team

Our clowns could learn a thing or two from our cricketers when it comes to working as a team. We will be playing in the Twenty20 Cricket World Cup next year in Bangladesh. Who would have thought that one day Nepal would be playing in a World Cup event? We are all proud of our lads and hope they will do well in the T20 World Cup.
Our cricketers should give motivational speeches to our clowns and inspire them to work together to write the constitution on time. I think our political parties should host their own T20 cricket matches and settle their differences over a game of cricket instead of using their cadres to bash each other up and making our lives miserable by shutting down schools, businesses and highways.
We hear media reports about how our government wallahs have promised our lads Rs 1 million each. That’s great news but let’s hope it won’t turn out to be another publicity natak and they will really receive the dough instead of bad cheques. Yes, the Sports Ministry will forward the proposal to the Finance Ministry and the ones with the key to the state treasury will probably come up with a million excuses and offer a paltry sum instead.
So let’s all get together and pitch in. Maybe we will be able to raise more than the allocated amount and our cricket team can use the extra dough to hire more fitness coaches, nutritionists and physiotherapists. Maybe we can even ask Sachin Tendulkar to come to town and show our boys a thing or two. Yes, our athletes need better diets and they need to be mentally prepared for the T20 World Cup next year.
