zubinpepsi Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 New Delhi: Uttar Pradesh all-rounder Praveen Kumar met with an accident in Meerut on Monday afternoon while taking part in a procession organised by his fans. Praveen, who has been named in the Indian One-Day team for the first two matches against Pakistan, was hit by a car and taken to the nursing home immediately. Doctors conducted a X-ray and said everything was fine. This is the first time the UP all-rounder has made it to the Indian team. A function was organised and a procession taken out in Meerut by his supporters to celebrate his inclusion in the One-Day team. Praveen was at the function after returning to Meerut, his home town, following his good show in the Challenger series in Ahmedabad. http://www.cricketnext.com/news/praveen-kumar-meets-with-an-accident/27668-13.html -------- what is this procession thing? for getting selected in the national team..?? its really sad to see such stupid things happening Link to comment

Lurker Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 what is this procession thing? for getting selected in the national team..?? its really sad to see such stupid things happening No it is not a stupid thing really. He is a hardworking lad who has come up from a town about which 95% of the Indians would not have known about. Yes it is easy to be born in Mumbai/Bangalore and walk to Shivaji Park/Local Gymkhana and completely different to be born in Merrut and have noone to look up to. Worse, with the politics around a player from Mumbai always gets a better chance than a player from UP. As for the parade part heck every few months we have a parade to honour Saregama finalists in their respective towns :D Link to comment

chanakya Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 Praveen's fans would mean his mates and gully people who watched him grow up? Or is it the entire city?. Would n't there be celebration in your gully if someone got selected to represent the national team in any arena? Link to comment
fineleg Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 Congratulations, yes. Phone calls, visits, wishes, yes. But not garlanded and paraded in open jeep like MLA :D Thats surely OTT for just selection. Link to comment
