The cock-eyed ICC
by CS Muralidhar on Mar 24, 2005 10:15 AM

I wish to portray the opinion of the majority of the cricket-following public who are ultimately the "consumers of the game" and whose money alone, I repeat and emphasise in capitals,ALONE keeps the game going and evolving.And there is absolutely no monetory contribution from ICC whatsoever.On the other hand it is a pure beneficiary.Moreover almost 80% of contribution is from India.Yet,it is the minuscule,non-contributing,racially biased Australia,England and NZ that seem to determine the course of the game.One abominable development is the obnoxious,most reprehensible proliferation of use of vulgar language,tongue-lashing and display of offensive and ugly body language by the bowlers,fielders and w-keeper against the batmen.This animalistic subculture practiced by the Whites against their opposition, especially when they are losing a match, has been further encouraged by ICC by giving it a euphamistic 'technical' name,"sledging".It is plain rogue behaviour and makes the spectators and TV viwers in India vomit.But ICC's henchmen are more worried about bowling action.The truth is Warne,Lee and Mcgrath are pure chuckers.But Indians never complain about that.
