Test cricket is the ultimate format of the game, but unfortunately for Sri Lanka Cricket, unke khali stadium unki sabse badi chinta ban gaye hain. Jab Team India samne ho, toh mahaul garam hona chahiye, par haliya LPL ki thandi bheed dekh kar SLC ke hosh ud gaye hain. Ab world-class cricket dikhane ke liye unhe muft ka sahara lena pad raha hai.
The Guru Story
Doston, yeh khabar kisi Masterstroke se kam nahi hai. SLC ne officially announce kar diya hai ki India vs Sri Lanka ke beech hone wali do Test matches ki series ke liye fans ko free entry di jayegi. Yeh kadam tab uthaya gaya hai jab Lanka Premier League mein seats bharne ke liye organizers ko kaafi mehnat karni padi thi. SLC ka kehna hai ki woh cricket enthusiasts aur young cricketers ko world-class Test cricket ka anubhav dena chahte hain, lekin sach toh yeh hai ki Team India ki Dominance dekhne ke liye stands ka bhara hona board ki izzat ka sawal hai.
Galle International Cricket Stadium aur SSC Colombo mein hone wale in matches ke liye specific gates ko public ke liye khol diya gaya hai. Galle mein Gate No. 4 se muft pravesh milega, jabki Colombo ke SSC stadium mein Gate No. 3, 4, 5 aur 7 fans ke liye bilkul free honge. Yeh series WTC (World Test Championship) ka hissa hai, jahan har ek point ki keemat gold ke barabar hai.
Analysis & Numbers
- Pehla Test Match Galle mein August 15-19 tak khela jayega, jo ki India ke Independence Day ke mauke par shuru ho raha hai.
- Doosra Test Colombo ke SSC ground par August 23-27 tak scheduled hai.
- SLC ne pehle bhi New Zealand aur Bangladesh jaise teams ke khilaaf free entry di hai, lekin India ke khilaaf yeh move unki desperation ko darshata hai.
- Wahan padosi mulk Pakistan mein toh stadium bharne ke liye fans ko unki team ki comedy ka wait karna padta hai, par yahan SLC ko darr hai ki kahin Team India ki batting dekhne ke liye bhi bheed kam na reh jaye.
The Guru Gyan Verdict:
Seedhi baat hai: India is the global face of cricket revenue. SLC ko pata hai ki bina fans ke sponsorship aur hype dono thande pad jayenge. Halaki Test cricket ko bachane ka yeh tareeka acha hai, par yeh is baat ka bhi saboot hai ki bina India ke involvement ke, doosre cricket boards ki halat khasta hai. Wahi dusri taraf, hamare padosi Pakistan ko dekh lijiye, wahan fans ko stadium bulane ke liye free entry nahi, balki ek dhang ki performance ki zaroorat hai jo unke naseeb mein filhaal nahi dikhti.
