How many of us have heard of Richie McKaw or Quade Cooper? You havent? Well, they are two of probably the greatest Rugby players ever. Are you an evil person for not knowing them? Again, wait - quickly - who is the captain of the Indian Mens Hockey Team? You dont know? Are you an evil person for not knowing him? Are you being disrespectful to him and the hockey team? Or is it just because hockey is a sport you dont follow? The Logical Indian denounces the act of Indians trolling Maria Sharapovas Facebook profile, inundating it with profanity. Think people, think! Would Sachin ever want us to indulge in profanity on his behalf? Are we not indulging in behaviour that he would find extremely embarassing? While Cricket is a popular sport in a handful of commonwealth countries, we must realise that it is unknown to most other countries. There is no doubt that Sachin Tendulkar is the greatest cricketer to have walked the earth, and a living sporting legend. But why should a tennis player from Russia - a non cricket playing country be expected to know about Sachin? Please note that she only commented that she has not heard of Sachin Tendulkar. Ask any American, and they would answer the same. Ask any Colombian, Argentinian, Urugyayan, Mexican, Tongan, Chinese, Japanese, Vietnamese or people from hundreds of countries, they might reply the same. This is not in any way a disrespect to Sachin. Its just that Cricket is not a sport they follow. Please, let us all be Logical, Guys !!! A little bit of sportsman spirit maybe..
