It’s a story about two baseball players who from India made it to the United States popular baseball team .
The film begins with two employee who are in trouble after their star clients does a deal with another agency and they are now looking what options they have and one of them while browsing on the television gets this idea of going to India and finding baseball players by doing a contest to get attention of the people and how they find these two Guys and the challenges and obstacle they face to learn the game and being part of a new country ,there culture ,language ,behaviour is a drastic change and how they over came the changes .
The director job as a storyteller was really good with few portions captured well
The background score was also too indie since it’s was about two Indians player .The background was with theme .also the movie wasn’t too long ,nor short the 120 minutes movies has really hooked you on without leaving you with a moment of boredom .
The performance of the actor were really good epically the two (Sooraj Sharma ) and (Madhur Mittal ) who were part of life of pi and slumdog millionaire with both done a Hollywood project each this seemed to be another one they bagged on the previous performances and this one too will give them more opportunity since they acted showing the changes from being from small villages from India to being well known Indians at every stage .not to forget the last few minutes of the movie when Amit is given an opportunity to go and be the coach for the player by JB
It’s that emotional feeling by the dialogues that creates the impact on the audience which is really satisfying .

ORS-Officiating replay system
Remember the UDRS-Umpire decision review system ?which was in the news for a while since It wasn’t accurate and the BCCI too was against the system , this was a while back ,and now in 2014 another technology advancement in the game is happening… the game might have ORS-Officiating replay system where there would be instant replay for non-match umpires ,this will allow the umpire to have more control over the replay he sees instead of depending on the replays provided to match umpires by the official broadcaster.This will not only give real-time replays but other tech tools and total control over camera angles ,the system is intended to eliminate broadcaster bias ,speed up the Drs process and prevent howlers .This will only make the game better since The chosen official to provide the feedback for the ongoing Pak -lanka test ,simon taufel is working independently of the third umpire ,he receives 16 real time feeds from the match and also has a hawkeye engineer to assit him.the third umpire receives replays from the broadcaster in 30-40 seconds while taufel using ORS receives the signal in real time.But will this be accepted by BCCI and others since it will be expensive to adapt and many members countries and broadcaster may not be willing to pay the extra cost.

IPL Spot-fixing
the game of cricket had changed six years ago completely when the IPL -Indian Primer League was introduced to the fans of cricket with twenty overs to played by each side,more then 8 teams in the league,and play themselves twice once @ home , once away ,it will go on for month and half 45 days and more then 70 games played a season .
Now what this gamed had done was given an direct opportunity to the young/new talents to play themselves with there icons and with international players this was the best thing to happen in the game to get to face these international experienced players @ an early age .But there were the few player who were not bought for enough @ the auction or the money they actually expected.so what happens when you don’t get what you expected ,you would either work hard ,focus on your weakness and strength or for satisfaction cheat ,so these players cheated their team for their own satisfaction is this team work? what are sports for? aren’t sports for better team efforts,better understanding of your role in a team.
lets continue we have a player quite well known for his behaviour as a public figure and just a few days a ago he clarified on his previous incidents.I know we aren’t talking exactly about his behaviour we are speaking about the game which has become a global sport not only popular in the cricket playing nations but non-cricket nations,
there is so much money in the game for all for companies to introduce the products/services ,for celebrities to promote their campaigns,movies .
and suddenly out of no where a news breaks in 3 player caught for spot fixing ,from the same team rajasthan who had won the inaugural season even after been labelled as the underdog now after five years what was the need for a player who played for the national team ,to get tempted for a spot to be fixed , the other you can understand but again ,why are we getting bribed don’t you people value yourself, the games .
This was surely happening all these years too,also its disappointing to see players running after money so much that their sports,their game and their life is for sale .
And this game and this format has lost so many fans ,a few die hard fans. But has more followers for the drama that has been going on for the last five years
