It’s indeed a funny game
Cricket is a funny game. It even has been described as a game played by ‘the flannelled fools”.

In short, the Indian sub-continent is the world’s cricket powerhouse. However, still this powerhouse produces some of its branch leaders who cannot even ascertain the strengths and inner abilities of their own teams.
