Are They The Cricket Fans ?

“Ah what kind of these fans are ?! “

They are comparing this (Usman Khwaza ‘s 195 not out vs South Africa in the Gaba stadium,Sydeny,
Australia where skipper Pet Cumminse declared innings on day four yeah not to prefer Usman’s maiden Double Test Ton and preferred Nation ‘s win possibility) episode with Rahul Dravid ‘s infamous declaration there in Multan,Pakistan vs Pakistan when Sachih Tendulkar was on 195 not out and at that stage india was in the Driver Seat but preferring Nation ‘s victory as the captain Rahul Dravid abruptly declared the innings and thrashed out Sachin and his fans into dismay. And that decision was criticized by the cricket fraternity and media . And the match was won by india. But there was sufficient time for india to make Pakistan out and for the record and the pleasure of the fans Sachin Tebdulkar must have had to give opportunity to complete his schintilating and marvellous Test century yes to decorate one another feather in his crown.
Here in the case of Sydeny Test yes the situations were hostile because two crucial days were washed out by the rain and the captain Pet Cumminse was helpless to declare the innings because the host has to bundle out the guest or opponent two times in two days only. And the host sent out six wickets of the oppostion on day four but on day five two batsmen Keshav Maharaj (53 run off 81 balls) and Simon Harmer (47 run off 165 deliveries) protested well though they couldn’t save follow on but dragged the time with the balls’ consumption and team made 255 and though compelled to follow on the rival South Africa saved the match that ended in the Draw.Yes in the 2nd innings batsman Sareal (42 not out by facing 125 balls) and Heinrich Klaasen (35 run facing off 61 balls) carried the match to Draw. The Aussies bowlers could dismiss only two wickets of the guest though they sent out two batsmen at the begin when the score was just 6 run. Yeah both the wickets were shared each by Pat Cummins and Josh Hazlewood.
Yes though the match was ended in a Draw but it वे sure that the match was live with winning possibilities in favour of host Australia.If the captain Pet Cummins wouldn’t have been declared then the possibilities of win for the host would be reduced or weakened themselves. And it was not sure that Usman Khwaza would complete the double ton because at that point the batsman often remains in the pressure and could be missed the double hundred so Mr docile gentlenan cricketer the Aussie captain was correct to have his declaration decision and trolling him on the social media। is irreasonable . And one who are condemning with damn spirit are sure less cricket understanding people on the name of shallow fans. And finally it is cleared that the matches aren’t played to make individual record or achievement and are played only for team win. And at the international level nation ‘s pride and glory is always above than the personal achievement.
