Cricket is an amazing game! From batting masterclass to sensational bowling to breathtaking fielding, it certainly has everything to impress the spectators. Besides the performance of the players what adds more fun to the game is the external factors. Sometimes it is the decision of the umpires, sometimes it is the action of the crowd and sometimes it is the bizarre events like cows invading the playing area. Yes, you read it right! Not every cricket match could be provided as good security as the international games and that gives room to the occurrence of such incidents.

"Choice Is Yours": Ravi Shastri Puts Onus On India Players Over IPL Decision After WTC Final Loss

Former India coach Ravi Shastri on Sunday sounded skceptical about the possibility of players getting extended gap after the IPL or practice games ahead of future WTC final matches unless there is a change in thought by all the stakeholders. After India suffered a huge 209-run defeat against Australia at the Oval, head coach Rahul Dravid said arriving in England at least two weeks earlier and playing some side matches would have been ideal for the team ahead of the big game. However, Shastri did not buy into the idea and put the onus on the players to make a choice.
