Answer 13

Watch a Lot of Cricket & Bollywood Films , Live in a Fools Paradise.

Bollywood is Controlled by Islamic Mafia based in Karachi & they are all promoting Muslim actors DELIBERATELY. Have you visited any indian Jail  , muslims make 60 Percent of the inmates. You north Indians don't have a character.

Cricket is sponsored by indian government , again deliberately to keep the Indian people , away from issues concering them .;

Do you know about the nuclear deal ? Do you know Chinese are usurping Indian territories & indian government cannot do anything about it ? Do you know about the corruption in Indian Defence Establishment ??? Do you know about HINDU GENOCIDE ? How Hindus were massacred in Bangladesh & Pakistan , how millions simply vanished ? Do you know about Taslima Nasreen ? How Hindu girls were raped Muslims in Both Pakistan & Bangladesh ?

NOTHING .

You people live in a Fools Paradise .....that's exactly what politicians want ?

Even if India wins 1000 cricket matches against australia , it will not change anything on the ground .

Cricters are Semi Literate Country Bumpkins , that's the reality , they are powerless against Politicians & are really Good For nothing .

Politicians know this & so they promote them ..... They are not HEROES but ZEROS .....( same holds true about Muslims KHANS in bollywood & Bollywood Itself )

Live in a FOOL's Paradise .

2 Ricky Ponting  - Only captain I ever saw who performed 3 times better since overtaking captaincy where others could not perform.

3 Stephen Fleming - He had no great players in His team and still he knew how to use his resources well.

4 Rahul Dravid - Most Underrated Captain won India test series in England and WI but was never given any credit for any victory.

5 Trent Johnston - Captain of Ireland he told his team before World Cup to enjoy which everyone says but in his captaincy team enjoyed every moment and won some great matches
