Couldn't have put it better....eloquently and lucidly expressed!!
Owning a cricket team is not like owning a corporate SBU...in a corporate setting, the CEO/owners are in direct control of resources and resource allocation....when it comes to cricket, the franchise owners and the CEO can only watch from the sidelines and thus the result is not in their hands..
All the rules of corporate setting cannot be applied to a cricketing field!!
Once again, well put Charu and sure you will find a bigger role in the future in the IPL!!
