Cricket Board of India

i truly agree that the board must be run by the professional cricketers rather than by people who look for their financial advantage. The Board must work in a transparent manner.

BCCI

Dear Sir, Instead of trying to regulate the BCCI, a competing organization should be formed, which will select its own teams, which will also be allowed to represent India....Or maybe, two, or three more such organizations...Cricket is such big business in India, with a lot of profit...So why not allow other people to establish entities which can also be private clubs , not answerable to anyone but themselves, and share the spoils?
Another approach would be to establish an organization comprising all individuals who have played professionally, have bought a ticket to watch a game, either in person, or on TV. These are in effect "the stockholders" of a Corporation, which can then function like any other corporation.
Gone are the days when Cricket was played by, and watched by a few people that belonged to the "Madras Cricket Club", or another such a club. The game is watched by millions of fans all over the world, and they should have a say in how the organization is run.
Good luck in trying to get some reform!

Key role in selecting players
by vijay on May 13, 2005 12:39 AM

Hello Rediff

BCCI Should select the experianced players from the County cricket. By the time they play a test cricket for india they will have confidence and flow. So better to select a good player who is well establised in the State level. Getting youngster and firing them if they dont do well in the first match will not only loose confidence in the players but also it will effect new comming player who can play well. So I request the body to select an experianced guy then a fresh guy.

About Captain Ganguly, i dont know when is he going to get rid of his weakness. Why is BCCI still looking to play him. He was a good player before but people know his weakness. So I dont consider him as a player any more. Try to get rid of him totaly and search for a batsmen who can bat like Dravid, sachin, Sehwag, Jadeja.

Thanks
vijay
