Question

in his childhood days gavaskar was not a sporting player, he would walk away with the bat and ball whenever he was declared out which brought the game to an abrupt end. how would you convince a friend of yours who behaves in a similar fashion? 100 to 150 words

Answer 1

This kind of attitude is very unmatured and children at a young age are a bit

arrogant.Specially those children who are very pampered and only child of

their parents.But we must always try to give moral lessons like sharing food

and toys with other children,not discriminating children according to class,colour or any other criteria.Instead we must teach our children to be

being kind to poor people etc.

If I knew anyone who would behave like how Sunil Gavsker behaved at a young age then I would tell my friend that this kind of attitude is not right.We must not behave like that.This is not a sportman spirit.In the world of sports we must keep a big heart.These kind of things like winning and loosing are part of game.You should never be too mean like not wishing the winner.If we loose we must accept that.We must try our level best to win but if we dont,then we must not loose heart.Its just a game.Today they won,tommorow you will win.But if you won't congratulate them today they wont congratulate

when you will win.

Answer 2

I would ask him to respect the rules.

I would tell him to play fair.

I would ask him to imagine a situation where if some other player has done the same thing that he has done, how would he feel then.

It is my duty to teach him about sportsmanship.

I would tell him to treat others in the game the way he wants to be treated because respect is a two-way process.
