Unfortunately, its the media who just to sell sensationalize and add masala to sell their story I never realized this even after I knew them separately The fact that racism exists is highlighted in the match-fixing scandal, where Herschelle Gibbs, Mark Waugh and Shane Warne all played cricket even after being pronounced guilty in the affair. None of the Indians mentioned in the CBI report came close to the cricket ground again. Thank you rediff for trying to bring the other sides of a story.
Sir, If we go on blowing our trumpet against the racism that it exists.Why we shrug our shoulders in accepting the fact that the casteism in cricket also exists in an equally great extent.Almost all of the cricketers come from upper caste background majority of them come from well to do families.To play cricket in a country like India requires either a lot of money or political support.From coaches to the members of selection committee all come from upper class as well as upper caste background.The way cricket is often referred to as the gentleman's game in the west in the same vein one tends to feel that cricket in India is the uppercaste's monopoly.Unfortunately the Govts never try to tap the budding talent in rural India.We only concentrate on those white elephants who do nothing but reap benefits arising out of sports.Sports like cricket,badminton,tennis etc are always dominated by the rich class.For playing these kinds of sports one needs to have a lot of money without it one can only dream of becoming a sportsman.Try to implement the reservation policy in the sport as well atleast it will give access to the marginalised.If they are good they are in if not they are out.
