They won't be watching the Cricket World Cup…
Not everyone is going to be glued to the television sets watching the cricket matches this World Cup. They may be a minority but, for these Indians, cricket is a sport they can very well do without.

I'm not going to watch the World Cup. No one can force me to sit through a match; unless of course Bhaktiyaar is watching then I might keep him company. Otherwise I'm not interested in watching it because I don't understand anything about the game. I only know that Sachin Tendulkar is a cricketer because he comes in so many ads. So while many others will be watching cricket in the next two months, I'll enjoy myself doing many other things. I'll go out shopping!

I don't get too involved or excited about cricket. My parents were never into it and I guess that's rubbed off on me. I'm not totally ignorant about the game though. If India makes it to the finals then I will watch that match otherwise I have 10,000 other things to do! I think there are other sports besides cricket that should be given their share of the limelight. I feel sad that cricketers enjoy many more benefits than most of their fellow sportsmen from different areas of sports. Personally, I love to watch basketball and horse row jumping. I also like sports that showcase dance forms like figure skating.

I love the game but I just don't get the time to watch it. I've been out of touch with it for a long time. Honestly, I prefer tennis. It's my favourite sport and I play it myself unlike cricket. I would like to watch the Indian matches this World Cup but I doubt I will be able to catch any of them as I have a packed schedule.

I could be the team leader for people who don't watch cricket! I've never followed it and I just don't fancy watching it. I know it's a complete shame to say it since we live in a cricket crazy country. But everyone is entitled to their own opinion! Maybe the reason I don't watch it is that I've actually never been good at sports. In school I was terrible at basketball and just average at badminton. I am athletic. I do river rafting and rock climbing but when it comes to sports, I'll have to pass. The only sport that I didn't mind watching was figure skating. But that was years and years.
