Watching the NFL, I came up with a new game plan for our Cricket.
For each team there will be an Offense and Defense.
Offense (Batting) = 11 players
Defense (Fielding and Bowling) = 11 players
No batsman will field,bowl and viceversa.
Imagine 11 sachins and 11 McGraths playing for a team.
And also I feel that India should improve the Cricket at state level. I dont know about other states,but in AP they play in Gymkhana grounds (Open place, no stadium). Who will watch the game? Even if they play in a stadium, nobody will watch it. Reason? No media hype. Did u ever see an ad of ranji trophy in TV? With 1 billion population, if india is good in presenting sports, economy will improve drastically. what do u guys say?
Anyway, like NFL, I came up with these names for our state teams.
AndhraPradesh - Techies
TamilNadu - Intells (Intelligents)
Karnataka - Woods (Sandalwood)
Goa - Dolphins
Kerala - Nets
Maharastra - Sevaks
Orissa - Typhoons
Gujarat - Tycoons
MadhyaPradesh - Guns
Rajasthan - Deserts
Delhi - Lions
WestBengal - Tigers
UttarPradesh - Lakers
Kashmir - Glaciers
Punjab - Turbans
Bihar - Cowboys (No wonder if Laloo is in the team)

Team Net will need 90 mins breaks between matches, pratice sessions. They need that to play their fav. sport, football, just to relax!
I think Team Dolphins would like the same!
