Sunil Chhetri comes in support of the NorthEast United FC fans

On last Thursday, 23rd November we got to see a video of few NorthEast United FC fans (including ladies) being heckled in Chennai’s Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium by Chennaiyin FC fans during the ISL match between Chennaiyin FC and NorthEast United. Here's the video shared by someone who was present in the stadium on that day.

The video showed some Chennaiyin FC fans making bad gestures towards the female NorthEast United FC supporters. Those NorthEast United FC supporters were totally disturbed and were trying to stop those Chennaiyin FC fans. It disheartening to see such rubbish behavior from these people. Those NorthEast United FC fans were totally humiliated and after the video was shared across social media, it caught the eyes of the Clubs and the concerned authorities.

NorthEast United FC was quick to post a tweet by supporting their fans.

There is no statement from Chennaiyin FC owner Abhishek Bachchan till yet. But we have seen Indian Football Team and Bengaluru FC captain Sunil Chhetri standing against such incident in a place where they play this beautiful game. Good to see our national captain's responsibility.

A lot has been happening that’s far from what football stands for and the joy it gives us. As fans of the game lets all add a little responsibility, that of being better humans.

It's really bad to see such incident happening in India after a successful hosting of the FIFA U-17 World Cup. There's a huge need for top quality security for both of players and crowds.

And we are super excited for the adventurous thriller film. Eagerly waiting for Amazon Obhijaan to hit screens near us.

Does MS Dhoni has anything more to deliver for the Indian Cricket?

From the very first days of Indian Cricket we have seen many captains leading our national team in the international tours and tournaments. And when it comes to getting the success, MS Dhoni's name will be there for sure. And why not? He has given us the taste of winning the world cup which we were waiting for long long time. At first ICC World Twenty20 2007 and then ICC Cricket World Cup 2011. Under his captaincy we have ranked top in ICC test Ranking. We used to love the Dhamakdar batting of the vintage MSD in his initial days in Indian Team. That's why he has become all time favorite to the Indian Cricket Team fans.

In the recent years we have seen MS Dhoni losing the golden touch he had in his batting. In 2004 he was having a outstanding Strike Rate of 135.71. But during 2014-2015 MSD started to lose the momentum he had. Though we call him as the greatest finisher of the game, we haven't seen him finishing the innings like he did or failed to take the team to the victory. As the day progressed, his performance graph started getting lower and lower. We all know that during recent t20 series we haven't Dhoni in good touch, though he got some runs in the ODI series. The current Indian captain Virat has backed him a lot in spite of his poor batting performance. But the cricketing pundits and former Indian cricketers like VVS Laxman, Rahul Dravid, Gavaskar expressed their disappointment about Dhoni's selection in the t20 team. So the question is are we going to see him retiring from t20 format cricket to concentrate on ODI matches or selectors gonna take a decision for him.

What's your say on it? Shoot them out in the comments below.....

What's the current situation of India's national game - Hockey in our country ?

India had failed to qualify for the last World Cup and finished ninth in the 2010 edition.On Sunday India got a historic win over China in the women’s Hockey Asia Cup and that is undoubtedly one of the biggest title in recent years of Indian Hockey. A big congratulations to the girls as they booked their ticket to the FIH World Cup in 2018 with this win. 

But the main fact is this win came after long 13 years and that too in our National game. So the question is what is the point behind not being successful in this game regularly. Is there lack of motivation or lack of infrastructure of hockey in India ? We are happy for this Asia cup win but we must not forget that India failed to qualify for the previous World Cup and ended up as the ninth ranked team in the 2010 edition of World Cup. 

But we have seen in these recent years people are taking more interest in other sports also beside Cricket (As our country has become popular for great passion for Cricket ). Hope we'll get to see more success in Hockey from both of our Men and Women team. 

Happy Birthday Virat Kohli - The Run Machine.

It was March of 2008 when the world came to know about the Lil U-19 Young Aggressive Indian Captain, who took his team to the championship with his excellent performance throughout the tournament. Soon after that he got his reward as he got the his debut in the senior Indian Cricket Team in August of 2008. That's where the journey began of a true champion. Yes the name is Virat Kohli.

After taking some time to settle in the team he got his first international century in December of 2006 at the Eden Gardens. Then he got the best taste of international cricket as India won the ICC Cricket World Cup under captaincy of MS Dhoni. Beside that he also started to perform at his level best as the captain of IPL franchise Team, Royal Challengers Bangalore. As a gift of his performances he got his entry in the test team in June of 2011 and it took less than 7months to get his first international test century in January of 2012. After performing so well he became the ICC ODI player if the year in 2012. He became the test captain of India in 2015 and maintained a great record as captain. In 2016 he became the Indian Captain in all format and kept making great records. What can we say about this brilliant players. The pundits already described his as the best.

Wishing him a happy birthday and many more success. Keep us entertaining Cheeku. 😉

The decision of changing the schedule of ISL was right or wrong?!

After successfully hosting the grand week of the FIFA U-17 World Cup Kolkata was preparing for the opening match of Hero Indian Super League, 2017. But after a sudden meeting at Kolkata the authority made a little change in the schedule of the tournament by transferring the opening match to Kochi and the final match to Kolkata.

We got to hear lots of news about it. But what was the main reason behind it? Someone said that West Bengal Sports Department wasn't ready to give the permission to set up a stage in the middle of the newly constructed high rated (from FIFA) ground. I must say that that was a great decision. Yes entertainment is also a part of the game, but it should be done without harming the sports. So thumbs-up to the Sport Ministry of West Bengal for such brave decision. Hope we will get to witness yet another thrilling final match on 17th March, 2018 at the Vivekananda Yuba Bharati Krirangan, Kolkata.
