The Mumbai Indians were some 51 for 5 chasing a total of 172 in this match, when Pollard and Ambati Rayudu started their onslaught.
Look at the “symbolic surrender” of the Mascot of the Royal Challengers Gayle ! at the Bangalore Airport Security Checkin on Tuesday night. Abject surrender of the match . It is not to say, the RCB did not fight valiantly to win the match. It is only that the MI teams determination to succeed was higher.
What are the lessons for we mere mortals at the Retail Store ?Many a times, the sales target seems unreachable ( 51 for 5 chasing a 172 ).
Many a times, the stars have not performed ( Sachin out at 0 )
Many a times, the responsibility will fall on a guy who has not done well before .( Rayadu was never their star, yet scored his highest runs here and helped MI to win this match.)
If we believe, that any situation is worth a fight, then there are good chances, that with determination, it is possible to win, even a hopeless case like what the Mumbai Indians must have faced.
What are the lessons from the RCB point of view ?Many a times, the sales target seems very reachable ( with 172 on the board, 51/5 by the opposition, winning is just a matter of time )
Many a times, some one becomes the fall guy ( 2 overs and 34 runs in the 17 and 18th over changed the match completely ). You could lose a large and important order in the last stage of the “Sale”. How many times, have we faced this problem at the store, due to the inability of the inexperienced staff to close the sale ?
Many a times, when the situation can turn either way, and you can become a hero or a villan, some one has to take the responsibility. ( Gayle bowled the last over and MI covered the required few runs)
Yet, when we saw the RCB team at the Bangalore airport just a few hours ago, none of this loss appears to be on their minds, and what mattered seemed to be to get to the next destination for the next match.
Wins and losses are part and parcel of every effort. You win some surprises, when everything was appearing lost and you lose something, when you have every thing going for you.
The magic is the team spirit ! Every body contributes !
But there is always something to look forward to , and that is “TOMORROW is another day “.
Best of luck to whichever team wins this IPL 5 series, but each man and the few women in the teams would have learnt lessons that they will not forget in a hurry. And the fans, would have got their money’s worth of entertainment. But I wish we all learnt lessons even in the Cricketing Madness called IPL 5.
