G_B_ Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 and yes I saw this myself and remember thinking this was just amateurish. Its more of a problem with non traditional cricket centers. I dont think such behavior will happen in established places. In Mumbai for eg the ball boys are from under 15 club cricket. The net bowlers for the visiting team are from the under 19s. It does say a lot about India as a society that this needs to be taught. Its common sense to be honest. This frantic need to be involved. Link to comment

Salute the boy above for standing his ground and helping in getting a possible four. Link to comment
mishra Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 Only embarrassing thing is that one boy who is handicapped and is shown fetching the ball in one of stadiums. I think he is a regular or employee. BCCI/ground should provide him wheelchair bowl_out and SecondSlip 2 Link to comment

Instead of running away from the ball, he stands like an imbecile. I wish Root broke the kids leg or tore his ACL, thats the only way that ball boys would be educated on how to collect a ball. I mean that ball boy looks like a mentally retarded person allowing someone to run through him. I feel like punching him and the coach of the kids who is not educating the kids on how to collect a ball. I mean how bloody simple is it? When the ball comes towards the boundary, run away from the ball then when it reaches the boundary move towards it, only and only if there is no player in sight. Jeez calm down .

King Tendulkar Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 The England fielders reaction (Roy i think ) was very agreesive to the kid . Is this how you behave with kids . Poor by England stokes also behaved with undue aggression when ball hit him on nose from crowd throwing ball back . Eng players too aggressive .

kruiser Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 Cricket does not need ball boys... The fun is having the fielder trudge all the way to the boundary to retrieve the ball... sandeep and beetle 2 Link to comment
sourab10forever Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 And most these ball boys are kids of moderately influential people having decent connections to the ground authorities. Sometimes they just add more kids due to the constant requests. One of my cousin's friend goes to every match held in Bangalore because he is the son of a senior doctor from Malaya Hospital from where the ambulances come for matches. He can sometimes go very close to the dug outs during T20s and even meet players. SecondSlip, Brainfade, King Tendulkar and 1 other 4 Link to comment

Vilander Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 Besides ball boys. I can list a few quirks that make us look dumb f's that we are. The bike daredevils in republic day parade, the guy doing the wheelie...lol wtf. The theatrics in the wagha border, we should just not do it. Have a calm soldier in full battle attire instead. The habit of naming every movie industry as some 'xyzwood' like some dumb f apes. for many from south india always eating rice every single day, its just one of the dishes. sensationalizing every non news with 'breaking news' banner, and having mud slinging talk shows. shitting in the open, floating the dead on rivers...it will never end. kosingh 1 Link to comment
