Candidate A:  Hello, Shyam

Candidate B:  Hello, Ram

Candidate A:  How is your cricket coaching going?

Candidate B:  It’s fine but……

Candidate A:  But….. What is the problem?

Candidate B:  I don’t have any problem but I am thinking about some of my friends.

Candidate A:  Your friends ! What has happened to them?

Candidate B:  Nothing. But they are just deprived of opportunity to get their skills in football and kho-kho sharpened like me.

Candidate A:  But, why?

Candidate B:  Because our school offers coaching in cricket and volley ball only

Candidate A:  That’s bad. It will prove a hurdle in their becoming good players. They may not be able to achieve success inspite of talent.

Candidate B:  Yes, it will certainly hamper their growth.

Candidate A:  We should convince the school authorities that coaching facilities for other sports like football and kho-kho must be started in the school.

Candidate B:  Yes, we can tell them that these extreme talented players will bring laurels to schools.

Candidate A:  Yes, we are going to meet the principal.
