Those were the days of gold when scooting from school, we
used to head home with the excitement within each of us to play cricket. Galli
cricket in India is still played; however, the charm it had in the 90’s can no
longer be brought back. With the years passing by, the game of cricket is
played as a profession more than a game of joy. It was a neon green colored
ball that was used for the game and we called it Cosco. Of course, it was India’s Cosco that introduced the ball
but any ball that came in that color and material was called by the name.
That’s how the ball got its identity across all games played especially
cricket.
It is a firm fact that still when we see a ball with that
color, we call it by the same name we used to in the earlier days. There had
been a slight gap when the neon ball was replaced by the hard red ball. Within
this gap, did anyone forget the neon ball?
As “History repeats
itself”, Cosco is entering the world of cricket once again with a bang; this
time Cosco is a ball license for KKR which means Cosco is entitled to use the
team as their packaging covers to get more sales.After
all, legends can’t be forgotten so easily. People who have been busy to play
the Galli cricket will relive the moment of the past. IPL is a league that
unites the world for the world. The fact that a team doesn’t have cricketers
from one country makes it more intriguing. They keep aside their countrymen
spirit and play as a team. I think that is the best example of “teamwork” and
the people should learn from Indian Premier League.
The commotion, the colorful uniforms, the celebrities’
involvement, the involvement of the businessmen and much more make it a league
that only promises entertainment. The enthusiasm seen in the past will undergo
a leap of million times for completing a decade since inception.
Amidst everything else happening, we can’t wait to see Cosco
doing the branding of KKR. The sight is definitely going to be nostalgic.
Indian Premier League is a league that has been doing the
job of creating the same spirit of Colonial cricket. The short 20 overs in
which it has been formatted idealize the concept of short and crisp because
anything best is served less. Watching a one day match that is played for 50
overs in each inning is interesting but only feasible to be watched on a
holiday or Sunday; however, IPL T20 is just the right combination of
excitement, thrill, and time-saving. Have a cup of coffee with a few nibbles
and the inning is over. How’s that?
