You are doing yourself a disservice if you do not watch this video.
Not because of cricket, but because of how beautifully Times Now channels the spirit of Rupert Murdoch.
It is supposed to be about how Sri Lanka threw the match.
But it is so much more.
1) Notice how the reporter starts off in front of a building called the cricket association, even though you would assume it has very little to do with the story.
2) Look at the way he points violently on the word deliberately. Perfection.
3) On the point of the deliberate losing of the game, he is fired up and loud, when he talks about how India might have played to their potential he is quiet and dare I say, cuddlier.
4) When the footage of the cricket starts to play, listen to the music, it all but screams, guilty.
5) They actually call them "moments of suspicion". Subtle.
6) What the commentators say is written on the screen, so you don't miss one incriminating word.
Beautifully crafted.
