[img]smileys/smiley7.gif[/img]donot get furious with me. If banning is the only way, yuo create opprounity fo rotehr soprts, its stupid. I suggets create equal opprutnity fo rthe soprts people and gmeas such a way that the other sports also cherish the fans. Donot overdo...which we are doing for cricket. Just do it...

Hi Good morning Guys,

My idea is don't Ban. Bcz, Many of the childrens are interested only on cricket. if we banned that game then the 50% of children to loose the sports sprits. if we all thinking, we ban the cricket children may interested in other games. not like that. now a days may of the aged people also playing cricket. It is a flexible game, in that game age is not a constraint. if u take athletics and other games aged people can't play. can play, but limited.

So don't banned, we can encourage other games also and give more sponcership to other games than cricket.

thanks,
Mohanraj

Hi all,


In my opinion banning of cricket will not give a remedy for this problem.Why cricket makes a detriment to other sports/games it is some thing very interesting than any other games.11 memebers forms a union and they are palying according to their own strength and their views.It gives the self confidence not to players,but for all others who all are watching this one.


We cannot ban this in a short span of time because it is very popular in india even in villages also people used to see cricket, and womens are also interested.we can do only one thing using these cricketers we can make one show or processionfor making the people aware of some other games.we cannot avert cricket. Its my opinion ( It is the only game or sport that we in first 5)

[img]smileys/smiley1.gif[/img]In my opinion cricket when it came to
our country it was not as much success as it is now.Only after few
years later it became famous among the common man.I think the
management of any sport has a lot of responsibility in making any sport
famous.Since the BCCI took the responsibility of publicising cricket in
the schools,collegesetc.They introduced domestic games like
ranjio trophy,duleep trophyetc.But on the other hand our national
game Hockey has suffered a huge blow now.When we heard of the
greats like Dhyan chand the whole world feared India in
hockey.But because of the lack of good management,infrastructure today
our hockey team is losing in every front.One thing which the hockey
management has done is the introduction of Premier Hockey League which
is drawing huge crowd towards watching hockey.So these type new steps
not only helps the players but also brings lot of public support into
it.In Tennis for example with the performance of Sania the Indian
tennis has got a huge boost which was there .Now there are more
sponsorers for it with organising tournaments like chennai open and
Bangalore openetc.So its not banning any game but giving support to all
games.

[keerthi]

I agree with vinvish.Instead of banning the cricket we have to try other ways to improve the support for other sports.Like in the case of tennis by seeing the performance of sania many are inspired and following her path.Sania achieved this due to her determination and dedication and the most important point is support from her parents and school.


So in my view the mind set of parents must not be towards studys only.They should give importance to their children'sintrerests.Provide good facilities for them to excell in sports also.And if possible initiate the schools also to add more facilities to certain games if they get an opportunity to do so.


Obviously ifthe parents support their children there are many chances for the children to excell in national as well as international tournaments.This also increases the sponsors who organise these tournaments.

[ponnu]

i agree with both vinish n keerthi. i dont think cricket is any way harming the growth of other sports. This is an interesting game and thats y got so popular. But our government should take some steps to support other games also.


I think there is room for every game. we r needed to take our foot forward and stand for other games. we need to provide situations where kids will start showing their interest towards other games. this can b done by providing all kinds of facility and infrastucture as that is for cricket. then automatically other games will stand as popular as cricket.


for improving one thing we need not destroy another. we can do that in a healthy mannar. what i mean by this is , we need not ban cricketto improve the condition of other games, we jst need to promote them.

Hey friends i agree with your views.







Hey friends i agree with your views.



Lets discuss something on our Cricketers
. We are loving them like anything .
They are making huge money every year.






Take an example of few cricketers like Steave Waugh, Wasim
Akram , Injimam..& many more ….






Steave Waugh We are
all know how much he helped poor children by founding UDAYAN charity in INDIA. Wasim akram & Injimam they build few
cancer related hospitals for poor people in their countries … There are many to
say…






Kapil , Sachin . Ajahar ,… like this we pay lot of focus on our cricketers. Indians
are really crazy about cricket .. They are Hero’s in people mind.






But here saddest part is we can not find these big time
players helping poor people in India.. But these people are busy in Starting their restaurants [/b]national wide to make more
money …




Don’t they have responsibility to contribute something to
develop this nation?




Come on friends… Express your views on it ….

Cricket shud be banned or not. Cricket as a national obsession is a detriment to other sports.



Ban is not a correct way toimproveother sports.


today some youngers are live with big cricket aim's.if we ban the cricket then some younger's life are spoiled.


so,to improve other sport's ,tgovernment must take neccessary action without affecting cricket

[keerthi]

yeah vision ur vision is correct.I agree wid u .Their contribution to the nation is less,But its depends on their respect towards the nation.So as indians we should admire the whole cricket team bcoz they represent our country as the best by their best performance.This should not exceed the limits by considering them as heros..What ever it may be thier contribution to the nation refers to thier personel area.But our topic here is cricket should be banned or not ?.right?

[BINNY]

I agree with Keerthi and Vision . Today other sports are not given much preference compared to Cricket . If you ask a teenager which is the national game of INDIA , he/she will answer it is Cricket . The Cricket game has influenced the minds of all Indians ..so much that many of them cannot live with out .. Few days back we had a discussion that "India is forgetting its Culture " ..I think we are encouraging cricket so much that we are forgetting that it is not our game..It is the favourite game of Britishers who ruled us for more than 200 years ..they have injected the game in to INDIA , I think following Cricket , we are forgetting our culture..As an Indain we sholud focus on ancient games such as Kabaddi , Horse races, Kusti , Chess etc . We should encourage our national game Hockey by making it as part of every bodys education .

Let me make it clear that now a days Tennis has got some craze in India because of Sania Mirza But I think it would have been different senario If it was a " HE " . Only thing I noticed is that the craze for tennis is ONLY because of " SHE " .

Hi ,

Banning a sport is not the solution for encouraging other sports, only thing is that every sport should be given preference according to its stature, i would say that Govt should provide aid to those games which are not came into limelight, instead of concentrating on games like cricket, even if govt doesn't care about cricket in providing funds for them, many sponsers are ready to sponser them, only thing is that govt should take initiative steps to develop less popular games.

Even i want to say that,any particular sport is not popular with any particular gender as our friend "Binny said ,I think it would have been different senario If it was a " HE " . Only thing I noticed is that the craze for tennis is ONLY because of " SHE (sania mirza) " " .




so I ultimatly say that banning of cricket is not the solution for encouraging other sports.

[harini_g]

yeah, i agree with all of u, banning of cricket is not at all the solution for diverting interests of youngsters on to other games,they themselves should be inspired of some great players in other fields,just likesania mirza as some of u told...


In my view cricket shows the best example for work done in unity by all the teammembers,this thequality every one should develop,and many more things can be learnt by suchgames...


so my conclusion is banning is not the solution...


thank u..

[meera]

No cricket should not be banned.We can see a good team effort in cricket which motivates the yougsters a lot.For Indians cricket is like a religion and this increases the union of our country.I can't accept that banning of cricket will redirect the people to concentrate on other games.
