PURE LUCK OR SHEER BRILLIANCE

When people talk about his enormous success they usually conclude with: "Its all about pure luck” OR “Its about sheer brilliance”! Since, i have now a platform to express myself , it gives me an opportunity to throw light on both these opinions.

                                  Let’s start with the more obvious conclusion: LUCK! There is no denying the fact that lady luck has been more than partial to the Indian skipper. I say this because there was no way Joginder Sharma could have gotten us that world cup victory or a group of youngsters playing for the first time could have beaten the mighty aussies. That said, people try to take advantage of this word to cover up some extraordinary decisions that deserve credit. Once I eavesdropped on a conversation that went something like this: “ Hey he’s winning matches because his wife has proved to be very lucky.” Now, as ridiculous as that may sound that’s the common perception people carry presently.

                  Moving on to ‘Brilliance’, which has been exhibited on more than a numerous occasion , the captain has taken Indian Cricket to a different level. The calmness of sea and the aggression of waves all compiled in one package. He has shown the world what responsible batting is about with a win percentage of more than 70 if he’s still on the crease. Also it would be unfair if all the credit is given to him because there was no way he would have accomplished this without the help of his team mates who complimented him on all his decisions.

                 

So, after reading  this where do we stand on the final verdict?

                                     I say it’s neither about PURE LUCK nor about SHEER BRILLIANCE, it’s about the man himself from the smallest of towns with the greatest of  determination, its abt MAHENDRA SINGH DHONI!!
