IPL MATCHES , BANE OR BOON FOR THE YOUTH 66

I am just shy by a year or so of  touching the 70 year mark and am  endowed with a fairly good health with just a few age related niggles , all with God's blessing , I lead an active life with a penchant for travel and exploring new places and experiences .

I am an avid follower of the IPL MATCHES , and during the course of the discussion about the nail biting final of the 2019 Final on one of the WhatsApp groups , a relatively junior member (  by age ) was at pains to point out that the whole IPL was a waste of time for the youth who were wasting their time , money and other resources on a totally  non productive passtime . He further went on to add that it was a fit passtime for people like me who were well past their prime after having completed all responsibilities towards their  children . What was left was for the curtain of life to come down one last time .

Now , this somehow sounds as if it is a crime to be bracketed in the AGED group .
I firmly believe the that the youth of today are into far more dangerous passtimes like DRUGS DRINKS MOVIE STAR WORSHIP WOMANISING ATHEIST MOORINGS ANTI STATE IDEOLOGY AND OTHER SUCH ITEMS .

A few hours  spent away from the attractions mentioned above in a cricket match is a almost a blessing in disguise .

Further , the IPL matches are an attraction for the whole INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY . Billions of Dollars of business in one form or the other hinge on items like the ADS , VIDEO RIGHTS , TRAVEL , HOSPITALITY , HOTELS AND BRANDED ACCESSORIES REST ON THIS ANNUAL EVENT .

The trick of the trade is to ensure that the youth of today reach the PINACCLE in their chosen fields inspite and despite these handicaps .
