The Ground Cricket writing that is worthy. The most valuable subscription for every dedicated supporter for whom, it's more than a game. Going Hyper Local. The Ground

There is a need to change how we report Sports. Sports is based on uncertainty and the deadline is very short for updating fans, but what if updates were treated as just updates and reporting took the form of "Stories"? Long form journalism

Our team of writers observe each an every minute and provide a comprehensive analysis which stays relevant whenever you read it. Stories Told Short (STS)

Sto

ries told short are more than updates, they are our coverage of things happening live and around the world of sports. They explain you 'what happened', 'why it happened' or 'our opinions on it' and then the ‘context’ of the story. The Ground is targeting to bring all sports news from Mumbai and Pune including events, announcements, news, stories and interviews to connect the local fans to their local sports.

We have somehow mixed our weekly review with the interview, but we are going to release a separate video with just the interaction.

Action paced weekend!

Here are some exciting matches from Thursday to Sunday.

Sports is live everywhere, the question is will the Indian audience watch multiple sports?

Hyderabad FC is a club in India Super League, the top tier of Indian football.
Recently it has come under financial turmoil and is now on the brink of a shut down.

This is the same team that closed operations in Pune and moved to Hyderabad.

Why is it significant that the club might be closing? What does it tell us about the entire Indian football ecosystem?

This and more on the latest episode of The Ground Podcast.

Since BCCI is the richest board, many new initiatives are expected to come from the country, and after losing yet another final even after playing the best possible cricket in the tournament, we have to ask if there is anything missing from the system?

This edition of the newsletter consists of anecdotes from a coach at Shivaji Park, and my (Avanish) own conversations with Maharashtra players or other observations. Maybe they are not enough to come to a conclusion, so it will really help if you all comment what you know about the topic (BCCI's investment in grassroot cricket)

Virat Kohli has given his all for the nation, in his time of need will the nation stand with him?

But, on the other hand India wouldn't want to miss on crucial WTC points against a fiery England side who will look to dominate.

Many questions remain unanswered.

India 0-3 Uzbekistan

The Indian football team coach has always been very realistic, and after the game against Uzbekistan in the Asian Cup, he reiterated the same.

Indian football fans are always divided into two factions, the first one believes in the Indian team but know the reality and all that is wrong with the system, the second unrealistically thinks that India can do well in these tournaments ignoring the internal issues.

All fans should listen to Stimac's words very carefully.

It seems like the bowlers are keen on improving their batting skills. This is a big weakness for India compared to other top teams, but with what Arshdeep said, we can conclude that there is a push from the bowlers to bat well and contribute more to the score.

India has been one of the most consistent sides in ODI World Cups appearing in 7 of them since 1983, winning 3 and losing 4.

There are some heartbreaks and triumphs, telling us that in the journey of achieving greatness failure is often a foe.

Whatever may happen against New Zealand, one can't forget how each and every player from the past has contributed to what the Indian team is today.

Rohit Sharma will be leading the side with confidence, as the nerves start to build up, one can only wish for the best.
