Game of cricket similar to life??
From Batsman's perspective :
The ball which is thrown at you is like the problems you face in your life. You need to carefully observe it till the end and "hit" it as far away from yourself as you can. Trying to hit the ball without observing it might get you bowled or out. Similarly, while tackling your problems you need to deal it with patience. Any solution without thought might get you into trouble just as hitting the ball without proper judgement has a lot of risk of getting out.
To hit a boundary, power is not the only way. Technique in your shot and timing will help you achieve your goal of hitting a boundary. Similarly in life while dealing with problems, the rude way of solving it wouldn't always be the best way to deal with it. The timing of your solution (patiently waiting for the right time) and some thought added to it will solve your most difficult life problems.
Building up partnership with your batting partner in cricket is very useful. Similarly, building a long living partnership with your life partner is very crucial for your well-being.
From Bowler's perspective:
The ultimate goal of any bowler is to get the batsman out. It is either by aiming at the wickets or by any other method of getting him out. The wickets are like the goals we set in our life. We should always be focusing on them and try to reach no matter what. When we fail to hit the wickets, we try it in the next ball. Similarly in life, we need to give it as many tries as it takes to reach our goal. We must never be disheartened.
The bowler tries different variations in balls when the batsman is not getting out to a type of bowling. Similarly when we are continuously failing at reaching our goals, we need to try alternate methods. We need to try alternative paths.
There are fielders on the field who help you in reaching your goal i.e. getting a wicket. They are the ones who take the catches, make the run outs and all other things. Similarly in life you get many friends and acquaintances who help you in your goal achieving path. Your parents and your other family members help you through your life.
Once a batsman makes a mistake of taking the wrong run, you should seize the opportunity and get his wicket. Similarly there will be opportunities given to us in our life. We have to grab each and every one of them. We have to make the best use of every possible opportunity.
The ball bowled by the bowler is like our efforts we put towards our goal. Batsman in this case is the surroundings which tend to deviate or distract our efforts(ball) away from our goals(wickets). Our ultimate aim is to go past the batsman(deviations or distractions) and HIT the wickets(goals).
I hope every bowler hits these wickets as soon as possible. :) :D
