'Just hit the damn ball': Sadhguru's advice for Indian cricket team for the finals
Amidst the excitement, a viral video featuring spiritual leader Sadhguru has caught the attention of cricket enthusiasts. Shared on Sadhguru's social media platforms, the video captures a curious individual seeking a tip for the Indian Cricket Team to secure victory in the finals. In his characteristic style, Sadhguru delivered a simple yet profound message: “Don’t try to win the Cup, just hit the damn ball! If you think of this 1 billion people baying for the Cup, you will miss the ball, or if you think of all the other fanciful things that will happen if you win the World Cup, the ball will knock off your wickets.”
Sadhguru emphasized the essence of focusing on the basics, stating, «So, how to win this World Cup? Don’t think about that.
How to hit the damn ball? How to knock off the opposition’s wickets. That’s all you have to think about. Don’t think about the World Cup.
Then you will knock off the World Cup.»
Prior to the semi-final clash against New Zealand, Sadhguru conveyed his best wishes to the Indian cricket team through his channel on X. In a video underscoring the significance of the process, he remarked, “Nobody can work on a consequence; you can only work on a process… Now, the process is a daily ongoing thing. Success is only in other people’s eyes.
They think you are successful; they think you are a failure. But essentially, what you are doing is the process, right?”
The Cricket World Cup 2023 is scheduled to take place at Gujarat's Narendra Modi Stadium on November 19, 2023, with India facing Australia in the finals. Having won all their matches leading up to the finale, the Indian team is one of the favourites.
