अगर एशियाई देश के खिलाड़ी ने किया होता, तो न जाने क्या होता ?


केपटाउन में तीसरे टेस्ट में जो घटा, वो शायद आस्ट्रेलिया के लिए नयी बात नहीं है, इसलिए अभी तक आईसीसी ने कोई ठोस कदम नहीं उठाया है। अगर यही छेड़खानी पाकिस्तान, बांग्लादेश, श्रीलंका या भारत के खिलाड़ियों ने की होती तो न जाने अभी तक लोगों ने क्या क्या बातें शुरु कर दी होती। कुछ लोग तो ये तक कह बैठते कि इन खिलाड़ीयों पर आजीवन प्रतीबंध लगा देना चाहिए।
एक बार पुरे मामले पर नजर डाल लेते है। दक्षिण अफ्रीका दौरे पर गयी आस्ट्रेलिया फिलहाल चार मैच का टेस्ट सीरिज खेल रहीं है। दुसरे टेस्ट तक सीरीज बराबरी पर थी, पहले मैच में कंगारुयों ने बाजी मारी तो दुसरे टेस्ट मैच में प्रोटीज ने। तीसरे मैच में दक्षिण अफ्रीका की बल्लेबाजी के दौरान आस्ट्रेलिया के सलामी बल्लेबाज कैमरॉन बैनक्रॉफट ने गेंद के साथ छेड़खानी की जिसे क्रिकेट की भाषा में बॉल टैंपरिंग कहते है। अंपायर से तो वो बच निकले लेकिन कैमरे से न बच सके।
मैच के बाद हुई प्रेस वार्ता में कप्तान स्टीव स्मीथ के साथ उनहोनें अपनी गलती कबुली। लेकिन जब कप्तान स्मीथ ने अपनी बात कही तब यह कोई विश्वाश नहीं कर पाया कि ये टीम के लीडरशिप समुह का फैसला था जिस पर उनहोनें खेलने के पहले चर्चा किया था। पुरे क्रिकेट जगत के लिए ये बात ताज्जुब करने वाली लगी। आस्ट्रेलियाई हरफनमौला खिलाड़ी ने ये ट्वीट किया कि हो सकता है कि ये नौजवान खिलाड़ी को बचाने की एक पहल हो।
फिलहाल कंगारु कप्तान स्टीव स्मीथ और उपकप्तान डेविड वार्नर ने अपने पद छोड़ दिए है। क्रिकेट आस्ट्रेलिया ने दोनों ही खिलाड़ियों को एक मैच के लिए बैन भी कर दिया है। लेकिन मसला ये है कि सच्चाई क्या है, क्या सच में इस घटना में लीडरशिप समुह शामिल है, अगर है तो कौन कौन शामिल है?
देखने लायक ये बात होगी कि आईसीसी किस तरीके से इस मामले को निपटाती है। क्योंकि अगर ये काम किसी एशियाई खिलाड़ी ने किया होता शायद उसपर आईसीसी अपने मुकदमें दायर कर चुकी होती। यही फर्क है एशियाई देशों में और बाकि देशों में।

What happened yesterday...

I am writing after few days just because I am confused about the way things are going in my life. I have been thinking about getting a new job because I am not satisfied with the present one. This is going on for over a month and my conscious mind thinks that I deserve a better job. When you see less deserving, less skillful and less qualified person becoming your team leader, it is obvious to get these thoughts. I did journalism with a lot of hopes attached with it, that one day I will do something which I will love and I will also get paid for it but the world seems very cruel when things don’t go your way. I have been active on job portals more than at the current job to find something good. It has hardly been a year and I am having second thoughts on my career. I know that I shouldn’t get this impatient so early in my career but I could feel that I am struggling in finding an appropriate place to show my skills which is a genuine problem of this generation but more than that I ...

Review of article "Wings Over Rajpath" from Geopoltics Magazine.

Refer to “WINGS OVER RAJPATH” (Geopolitics January 2016) by Mayank Singh . In this article writer has rightly explained that how a Republic day is made more special by Air show of Helicopters, Sukhoi, Dhruv, Chakra etc. The writer mentioned that viewers either watching live or on televisions enjoy a lot that moment when tricolor flutter in blue sky playing hide and seek with our eyes disappearing in to the clouds. There are three types of aircraft which participate and all take off from different locations. Fighters, transport and Helicopters have which have different speed and they cover different locations. Visibility of these shows are really important in the overall planning of the display. With visibility decreasing the aircraft have to be brought closer to the VIP and the public and then line of sight also has to be adjusted. The author briefly described how much hard work they have to do before performing on 26 th jan and in front of the president, prime minister and thou...

Is this a start of new beginning or mere a flashback for Saffron.

BJP winning the 2014 Lok Sabha election was something everyone saw coming the day NaMo name was out in the news to lead them in the big money involved election. Since then whatever BJP has achieved in the Country is outrageous to opposition. I don’t recall the last time when the country was ruled by a single party in these many states. Maybe it would have been achieved by mughals or someone else. But this is not something, a citizen should be proud of, where second largest party has only 3 states to rule and the leading party has 21 . Democracy can only excel when the opposition is strong too. Opposition is as important as the party in power because a democratic country needs someone who could ask questions to the party sitting on throne. However the job is meant for the   media but we know they are only playing their card to make money by gaining more and more TRPs and by other alleged means. BJP has been on a roll since Prime Minister Narendra Modi and BJP president Amit Sha...
