Indisciplined DDCA kids?

Do Delhi 14-year-olds have the temerity to make a pass at an air-hostess? Cheaply Live suggests that the kids are always overaged in cricket, especially Delhi cricket, so it could be 16-year-olds making a pass, and that’s normal.
Sometimes, Cheaply speaks a lot of sense and I admire the channel for that.
But honestly when the three kids were hauled up for eve teasing in Srinagar while they were touring for Dhruv Pandove Trophy, I was shocked and couldn’t help and exclaim, ‘bloody desperate losers’.
So it happened that they too were packed off after the two coaches had been packed off a day earlier for trying to discipline them.
Now, whatever transpired. I spoke to one of the members there.
“See the kids were in a room close to air hostess’s and were shouting ‘bhootni, bhootni’. The dame mistook it for something (wonder what could it be…oh…shit!) and complained. Now, Raju Tandonji (the man who’s fighting for a piece Gautam Gambhir, and rightfully to some extent), who was with the team as a coach went berserk and shouted at the kids. He lost it and just kept slapping one of the kids, a 12-year-old who, honestly, didn’t deserve to be in the team but was backed by the Cricket Improvement Committee. The other coach got embroiled in it because he ticked off (read hit) a kid while on an outing.”
Now, Cheaply says all this is confusing. He says that it is a matter of two groups who just keep fighting. A solid reporter’s analysis, who just doesn’t want to dig deep.
But man, I tell you these 14-year-old kids. Bunch of despos!!!
