Reputation At Stake
Just few hours back another gem of Bollywood Dharmendra Deol has left us and left a deep void to fill in. RIP to the He-Man of our Indian Cinema.
Facebook and many other social networking sites have become an inseparable part of our lives. Across the globe billions and billions of people use social networking sites be it either to remain connected with peers, family or who ever or are seen promoting their well established Businesses. Not only this but also share thoughts or opinions or whatever they like to do so.
Seeing all these major developments this is not wrong to say that all the networking sites are a boon for mankind. Honestly it all depends on how one uses these sites but not many realize one big thing or a major factor that the thoughts and opinions that are posted on media are viewed by many other users also and by others I mean just not to family or friends but everywhere across the globe. I am sure that not many have given thought to this aspect or may have realized late. The opinions people post and the language one uses while writing something also matter a lot.
My Blog Title "Reputation at stake" is because what I am going to explain through the case of a Cricket Incident which has been coming in light from "19th Nov,2025" but the seeds of it were sown way back in 2023. The date of 19th November 2023 is more of embarrassing for us Indians because India lost to Australia in the final of ODI World Cup and this loss gave us a Villain overnight and he is none other than Australian Player Travis Head who was exceptional on that night of the finals. In my opinion Travis Head was not and is also not a villain still because If our Players were playing for India so was Travis Head also was Playing for Australia His Nation and he had all the right to do so.
Reminding you all the 2023 ODI World Cup was held in India and finals was in Ahmedabad. All the Nations who were a part of World Cup were playing in India. Why was Travis Head labelled as a Villain for us and even if he was somehow WAS IT RIGHT to threaten his Wife and Daughter and that too with rape threat. This was something not expected from Indians at all.
It is disheartening to witness the extreme and inappropriate reactions from some Indian cricket fans following Australia's victory in the IC
This is the piece of evidence I got in a way to support my blog. It had come in news and it is humiliating in all ways. One has the right to express disappointment but showering abuses and rape threats is very bad and may have put our Nation on a bad global scale. These acts pull India's reputation down globally.
If I am to be comment on the source of this Information I collected all the information from various comments on facebook where there were similar and upsetting posts on cricket.
I am an Indian also and like crores of other Indians I felt bad for India loosing the finals but that never means one crosses limits and totally knocks off Humanity. Maybe the faction of so-called Indians may have Lost heavy and monetary bets on the game hence such reactions came up and this is how lot of Indians behave when they loose amounts of Money and go Crazy.
To put it in simple words Cricket or any sport teaches us sportsmanship spirit and when we play a certain game and whether we Win or Loose we should uphold the spirit of the sport and not commit childish acts and at least we should not disrespect others no matter what the result maybe. Small things or acts of whatever nature are viewed on social media by many people whom we may not know and one never knows what opinion is being formed on them so it is better to show Humble nature.
