‘Win vs Politics vs Sports’

“Karnataka cricket team won the Ranji trophy after 14 years”, the headlines quoted in a morning news paper. I was taken by a thought, was the team really trying so hard to get to victory? Or was the team so poor in their performance that it took 14 long years to taste the victory? Or is it rather such a long time to improve to a better level? Many such hindrance thoughts came up to my mind.

A team to perform well and be efficient, it is the duty of the respective committee to put the right people for the right job. But it is unfortunate to witness, political winds blowing in the field of sports. Recommendations, influences are becoming shortcuts to fame for the people with money and political power. It is sacking the deserved talents to perish in agony. 

It was also noted that Indian cricket team won the world cup after 28 years since 1983. The reason for such a lengthy duration of achievement symbolises the weakness of potentiality about the team. What is it that is lacking behind? It is surprised to know that the corruption has drawn its roots even in sports. The committees framed by the concerned authorities

In fact if the concerned authorities hail from sports background with a quality experiences. Knowing the language of hard work and sincere efforts of the budding sports enthusiasts, they would be able to opt the potential talents and nurture them through their inner knowledge and impart their skills into those new talents and can shape for a better sports future of the nation.

Political interference should be completely banned. If they give way for progressive steps to identify the talents from not only urban but also from Semi-urban and Rural areas, our nation does glorify with high potentials than any other countries across the world. Facilities such as training institutes, sports grounds, financial aids, educational benefits will surely be a motivational supplement for a sports enthusiast to pursue his/her career in the field of sports and promote towards representing the nation.

Sports should influence self esteem level of an individual which gives an option to be in the list of his dreams and desires to make an achievement in life.
