A faithful cricket fan will always phrase, “Nothing bigger than the game”. On the contrary, a modern cricket fan is faithful to the game for the drama and entertainment it provides, the high dosage of dopamine release just by witnessing the saga of a perfect high-profile game of cricket. From being a gentleman’s game to a pure classic entertainment stage, cricket has evolved for good, keeping the morals of the game intact. However, cricket in its purest red ball form (test matches) continues to amaze that a game which is played over 5 long days can make the audience and players so involved in emotions at the highest level both on and off the field.
One such day of high drama was day 3 of Cape Town test match. Day which began with both teams evenly poised aiming to a series victory turned out to be one of the most fascinating dates in modern cricket history owing to technology and question to the spirit of the game, as the world reacts.
Ashwin to Elgar, 4th ball of the 20th over, the ball drifts in from around the stumps and strikes Elgar, the South African captain, in front of middle and well below the knee roll. That’s what a sport commentary looked like. There was no bat involved and the best part for the Indians, the old man of the match, umpire had already raised the finger up. The nation miles away (some on live tv, some through cricket updates) was already praising the great cricket team, expecting another series win away from home, this time history being in making, all this just for the expectation of the first wicket. Then comes the sense of the Porteas captain, with the time out hand gesture, questioning the decision, making use of technology, the DRS. Now, taking a DRS call is no big deal, but this time around, it was. The ball tracking technology, miscalculated by the Artificial Intelligence, showed the ball would have missed the stumps by an inch. The big screen confirms relying on the ball tracking, this would have gone above the stumps or would it? The umpire had to reverse the decision and quips “that’s impossible”, Indians disgusted. Here, question was about the evaluating the on scene human intelligence (makers of technology) against the Artificial Intelligence, human sense lost and helplessly.
This has happened earlier and no one could device a better mechanism and instance as such of this day is a collateral damage for the greater good of the game. With this thought, the game should have continued but one of the greatest batter of all time is also one the greatest characters on field captaining the Indian side, Virat Kolhi, couldn’t have been more of character than today. Though this time around, it was the bowler himself, Ashwin, tormented by the incident, devised an unique way (again technology), murmuring a few words into the stump mic for the whole world to hear, that he is disappointed and we agree, you were Ash. With the start of this, the Indian camp was pretty excited, pumped up, focused more on letting the world know, that this was wrong and we are at war. Virat, bending over to the stump mic saying, "Focus on your team, while they shine the ball, eh”, this British way of letting the host country know about a mishap in a game, perhaps wasn’t expected or needed. Something which was unnoticed is, this type of act gives the younger mates a confidence to try to shatter the sport spirit, seeing such a lovely cricketer, Mayank, going towards the stump mic with his thoughts was fascinating yet hard to digest. Among all the chatter going on, the deputy of Virat, KL Rahul comes to the picture making a statement which could end friendships, pouring into the mic, “Whole country playing against 11”, no KL, its not the whole country, it’s just a game and tech which went wrong. At the back end, it is an immense pressure for the guys doing the rocket science itself, putting everything together on screen, having the machines build, softwares to run for your game to be played well and calculated well, for your efforts to be shined, there are guys on the chair eating their brains up with loads of codes and caffeine, no KL, its not the whole country, its few hard working office men gearing up for you to be heard and watched while you drive towards the cover. To the defense of KL, Virat and Indian camp, its been an unfair incident and the emotion, commitment for the country which these guys possess can make things heated up around, this is the reason they are one of the best at what they do. Slightest of drift away from protocol which can let them think that they will lose the game for their country can be hurting and the character comes out with emotions overflowing, so I would say, we do understand KL, skipper and lads. But let me take you 15 years back, let’s say, India playing South Africa, imagining we did have DRS into place at that very time itself, but of course we had different boys on the field. Let’s replicate incident but this time, Kumble bowling to Kallis, DRS denied the wicket, Rahul Dravid smiles the way off, the match goes on. The only ask I do have today, what’s the difference between a Dravid and a KL ? May be twitter would react. Whatever it is, I shall be proud of Rahuls, Virats, Sachins, Kumbles or Ashwins and many more to come, as you all are the best for the game for the country.
