DelhiPlanet would like to pay it’s tribute to Bob Woolmer and his entire family. We also request the media and all cricket fans not to be fanatical about the sport as it puts great stress and pressure on the players,coaches and their families. Cricket is just a game and not war, let’s treat it like a sport without attaching one’s personal honour and pride to the results of matches.
