3. Twenty overs cricket -- is it helping cricket or takes away the merit of cricket -- in the light of fixing controversies.
Points: Twenty overs cricket -- too much advertisement, costs. Each player is paid high amounts. Ticket costs are high. Most of the matches last over only decides the match -- fixing up of these matches cannot be ruled out. Sachin Tendulkar has said though there are minor lapses in IPL , it is a good form of cricket.
One way good players from various countries join together in one team and play. Not good in one way - players from the same Indian state compete here.
4. Hike in petrol prices -- Is it right for the government to hike or not?

8. "The greater the spirit, greater is the chances of success in any work/venture/attempts". Elaborate.

On the other hand when she cooks with lack of interest it will not come out well. this can be extended to any field -- acting in a movie, playing for a State or country in cricket, football , writing stories, books, managing functions etc.
