RP Hall Cricket Team

Posting on behalf of a friend who doesn't have enough karma: I'm a boarder of VSRC, although I'm not a fan of cricket I went to watch one of our cricket gc matches. I saw a team batting in a blue red kit and they kept getting bowled out for ducks or getting run out in the most comical ways. It seemed that they had never played cricket as a team before. I was later flabbergasted to learn that they were the RP cricket team who had won the GC last year, defeating the mighty Azad team. I just couldn't fathom their spectacular fall from grace, getting squashed like flies by an admittedly chhapri team like ours. Don't they get more funds and if they do why do they waste it? The evident lack of practice and communication was also concerning, why bother embarassing your hall's reputation if you aren't willing to put up a fight?
