Fall from Grace

I am a diehard cricket fan... So I must be posting at least one blog about cricket...and what cod be a better topic oder than sledging Aussies....(The so called unbeatables.. invincibles...) in their own language....... There was a time when Alexander thot to rule this world.. he codnt succeed.. den came Hitler....and in between many more.. and after dat many more as well... but noone cod succeed....I can't take it from them their efforts...They were all gr8 persons...but still alas......Now is the time when Aussies want to rule the world..(of cricket..).. They almost succedded too...but every time it seemed they are ready to beat Hitlers of old time.. it was us yaaa (We Indians...) who proved...not only at that time... but at this time as well.... tyranny codnt be tolerated....
The way we defeated dem in 20-20 World Cup.. den in CB Series Finals.... tell the story in itself...and needless to mention the fierce bouncy Perth track(Their trump card).. where we decimated dem.. and gave them a lesson for a lifetime. Such was the wrath from Sydney test...that Aussies almost surrendered themselves in Perth. Some wise man has told once.. "Only the worthy should be getting fruits for work not the greedy"...and thats what we can see.... You cant become a champion by sledging and riding on ur luck all the time....


What Kangoos did at Sydney is not at all what we expect of a champion... Even Mr. Pointing (though he will not admit it).. would have been thinking "What have I done!!! Is dat what u call cricket" India was not defeated that day..cricket was devastated..The so-called gentleman's game has been gently manhandled... That was really what u call Fall from Grace.... Its not a coincidence that the grandold man of this game was W.G.Grace.. and game was always played with so much grace.... Here 'Fall from Grace' also characterizes falling from the great man's standards he set for others....
I have no reservations in saying that Australian side has shamed the game. Australian Cricket Board chief executive James Sutherland was moved to remind the team about the spirit of cricket........ Some have even said the lingering legacy of Ponting's team will be its surly behaviour, a view suggesting that in 50 years, it will be remembered for its failings of deportment rather than because it became statistically the greatest in history. .....
Quoted somewhere:-
We have taught dem well about ascendant trend inspite of being caught in the middle of controversy...... All top players adopt the similar route before plotting their own fall from grace : from enthusiasm comes commitment, commitment comes expertise, from expertise comes confidence, from confidence without humility comes over-confidence, from over-confidence without restraint comes arrogance, from arrogance without common sense comes humiliation, from humiliation comes knowledge of reality !
