Interesting comment.
Why do, we, despite being Indian's think that international players will
always play better than Indian players?? I mean, at least after the Indian team won the T-20 world cup, the youngsters have won the Under-19 world cup, and still we have doubts over their performance levels... come on, give them a break.. I mean, how can you say that a mismatch occurs only when a team has more number of international players? Won't the case be the same, if the local players in one of the teams are weaker than the ones in the other team?? Do see the other side of the coin, and try to get under the crux of the matter...
Can anyone point out even a single sporting event which has a similar set of restriction on playing international stars, which might be a rare exception, even if there exists one...
We need to think beyond the obvious fact (that more the match practice the local players get, the better they will get) and try to understand that it takes even Iron to melt at 1600 celcius and its only after that ordeal that it develops the super strength thats known as Steel
(so much for being a metallurgist )
. I mean, it will be better off to let the local players really
earn their spot in the playing 11, since when it comes to any sport, a team will always want to field its best possible combination (irrespective of the fact whether he is an indian player or international player ) !!
Food for thought, really...
