LBW-Life Before Wicket!!

For Indians,cricket is not just another game..its their part of life.You can find lot of instances where cricket has affected the lifestyle of most of the people.
For an average Indian,if you give an option between his daily bread and cricket,most of them go for cricket without a second thought..that is the extent of cricket in India!!
Talking about cricket in India without mentioning arch-rival Pakistan is like narrating Mahabharat without Kauravas!! If there is a match being played between India and Pakistan..you can feel that cricket fever in every house,corner,street,village,cities of India.No one is spared..this game of pride has its bloody hands on every person of both the countries!! It knows no gender,no caste.Everyone is in its trap!!
Its a game of heart-beats..for most of the die-hard cricket fans,the scoreboard is like angiograph..the graph fluctuation is directly proportional to the number of balls left!! Balls left Vs Required runs is like pawn movement in snake-ladder game..you never know who will hit a six or who will get a wicket..they do not lose the hope till the last ball of the game,till the last drop of the rain!!
My request to every fan of this wonderful game: Its just another game..be sportive..Cricketers get their bread even if they win the game or not..it is us who are wasting our days by discussing the time-killer game called cricket!! There is always another world cup..so go back to work..there is life beyond cricket..dont lose your life before wicket!!
