In life one encounters numerous problems, but the ability to overcome these problems are within us.
Remember if one gives up soon and stops trying, then there is no hope for solution.
Take the case of a cricket match.
All of us love the game of cricket. The IPL is on in India and eight teams are vying with each other for the trophy.
Rajasthan Royals was the First season winner followed by Deccan Chargers in the second season.
In the third season, Rajasthan Royals had already lost first five games and were down and under.
This did not deter them from having hopes.
The next five games have been won by them and they are a force to reckon with.
Take the case of the game held between Rajasthan royals and Deccan Chargers on 05.04.10.
Rajasthan Royals had batted first, scored a meager 160 runs in 20 over’s and the opposition Deccan Chargers had come in to bat.
Deccan has the best of Players like Adam Gilchrist, Andrew Symonds, and Rohit Sharma.
The Deccan team came in to play and lost valuable wickets and was at one stage 56 for three.
Things looked glum; they were struggling to get runs. Rohit fought valiantly and was taking the score towards the winning moment.
It was his will power and confidence that kept him going. However his team mates could not sustain the onslaught of a good bowling by the Rajasthan Royals.
Shane Warne showed his captaincy his never say die attitude despite Rohit playing so well, brought him luck.
He changed his bowlers so well and placed his fielders at strategic spots so that the catches could be taken easily. It looked as if the game was being orchestrated by him and he knew exactly where the ball would be hit by the batsman.
The wickets started tumbling. The fielding was excellent and the run out of Harmeet Singh was too good to believe.
The score was inching towards the Royals target; there were only two runs and three balls.
The last batsman Mr. Ojha came in to bat, and struck a low pitched ball of Trivedi and the catch was taken at the boundary by the fieldsman.
There was joy everywhere for those who supported Royals; the team was exuberant and lauding Shane’s captaincy.
It was Shane’s efforts in mobilizing his boys, his directions, his decisions, and finally his bowling that did the trick.
Shane’s bowling resulted in 4 for 20 runs, remarkable for 40 Years old cricketer.
It was any day a Deccan riot to be unfolded with great batting stalwarts but at the end despite a poor score, Royals managed to win.
That’s why we say If You think You Can You Can, but If You think you can’t, then God help you.
