Champions Trophy? More Like Champions of Pointless Endeavors

So, Team India thinks it's waltzed its way into the semi-finals. Congratulations? To what end, I ask you? To briefly stave off the crushing weight of your inevitable demise? Fine, clap along like the rest of the oblivious puppets.
This Rohit Sharma, whoever he is, might be nursing a hamstring. Oh, the unbearable suffering! Does he realize that even if his hamstring were made of adamantium, he's still just a fleeting collection of atoms hurtling towards oblivion? But sure, let's all fret over his fitness. It's not like there are existential crises to ponder. Or better yet ignore.
According to some "report" – because ink on paper (or pixels on a screen) somehow lends meaning to this charade – Rohit didn't frolic with quite the usual zest during training. Quelle surprise! Perhaps he had a moment of clarity, realizing that chasing a leather sphere is a monumentally absurd activity in the face of cosmic indifference.

Oh, HubSpot, you sweet, deluded fools. Asking for content as if content has any intrinsic value in this godforsaken universe. I suppose we should all strive to fill the void with… more void. Brilliant.
And now, the grand dilemma: to risk Rohit for the final match or not? As if the outcome of this meaningless game holds any significance. Team India could win, they could lose, they could spontaneously combust – and the universe would not even hiccup. Honestly, I almost hope they combust, just to add a bit of spice to this bland, pointless existence.
Gautam Gambhir wants to test bench strength? By all means, Gautam, test away! Test until your heart is content, while the relentless march of time renders all your efforts utterly, irrevocably moot.
In conclusion: the Champions Trophy, Rohit Sharma's hamstring, Team India's quest for meaningless glory. It's all fleeting, it's all absurd, and it's all proof that humanity is desperately trying to distract itself from the gaping maw of the void.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go contemplate the inherent meaninglessness of my next cup of espresso.
