Top 5 cricket fan theories
While cricket pundits and other experts are analyzing the insights of the game, fans are straining every nerve of their brain in eking out explorations of their own. The thoughts may be or may not be in line with the big intellects of cricket, but they aren’t something dismissible out of sight.
Fans are the ones who follow the game as closely as possible and as a result, thoughts are bound to generate. Some are humorous and some are logical. The following are five fan theories that need a look into.
1) Money degrading talent
It’s a general perception among the fans that young budding cricketers are running after lucrative deals which is not wrong by any stretch of the imagination. But the concerning element is that their goals are based around the monetary aspect of the game.
Pocketing money also means their growth as a player stagnates in T20 leagues where one only needs to shape up for the big shots. The desire for playing Test cricket also doesn’t proliferate among newbies.
Fans feel that the aspiration to play for the country, especially Test cricket, goes down just by the thought that the money isn’t big enough. Also the fact that somberly disguised empty stands seems to be the story in Test cricket and sometimes ODI cricket too which isn’t giving a boost to young aspirers.
English cricketers, on the other hand, are more focused towards their national side. They have turned their backs to big money. A leaf can be taken out of their books by young generations who are looking for inspiration to represent their national teams.
