Muzaffarpur (Bihar): Eunuchs in Bihar have joined the wave of angry cricket fans looking for creative ways to express their disappointment with the Indian team after their loss in the World Cup.

They are out onto the streets and come up with an innovative way of making money.

“We are collecting this money for Sachin Tendulkar. After the World Cup debacle how will he make a living,” says Salma.

From railway stations to marketplaces in Muzzafarpur you can see them crying shame after India's pathetic show in the Caribbeans.

Meanwhile, people are supporting these unique protestors because it echoes well with their feelings.

“We had high hopes from the Indian team. They should all be sacked. Why do players fix matches? They make enough from the game,” says a cricket fan, Rakesh.

So while cricket fans across the country are burning effigies of cricketers and shaving their heads, these eunuchs couldn't do better. Apart from rubbing it in, they've also used it to make some quick bucks.
