While guests are finding the existence hard after Julian Nagelsmann chose to leave the club for RB Leipzig in summer. As things stand, just one point isolates them from the transfer zone: a sign this could be a troublesome season for manager Alfred Schreuder.

“I feel the way J. Robert Oppenheimer felt after having invented the atomic bomb: If I'd only known this plague that I've visited upon the world...."    – Dan Okrent     (Founding Father of Rotisserie Baseball)    Fantasy gaming is indeed a plague in the world now capturing the popular imaginations. Since this game includes an expansive demography ranging from the youths in their early 20s to people over 40s, both male and female- so fantasy sporting industry is now a booming business all over the world.    Not to mention, India as a developing nation, is not lagging much behind the global trend and being a nation solely devoted to cricket,  fantasy cricket   is a household affair in this nation.   Statistics show that the number of users who register and  play fantasy cricket  on various sites has been recorded to be no less than 20 million on March 2018.

Imagine walking into a party with a room full of unknown faces. Can you think of any better way to break the ice and bond with the people around, other than indulging yourself with any game they are playing? The Answer would be No. In general, sports and games are the greatest motivators that help in the creation of a team spirit, an overall friendly atmosphere and eventually a positive mentality in the people involved.  This brings me to the concept of the growing practice among the employers in India to involve their employees in Fantasy sports in the work place, especially  Fantasy Cricket .    India being a cricket worshiping nation has a gigantic number of viewers. According to the official report of ICC, cricket has over one billion fans globally, with the Indian sub-continent alone constituting more than 90% of them. Thus, with the amount of passion involved it would be more feasible and meaningful to  play fantasy cricket   at the workplace than any other games.
