If Jayadevan was an Aussie or an Englishman would the ICC have thrown out his case like they did without a proper hearing?Let's turn it around;we are presently using JAYADEVAN'S method and Duckworth/Lewis come up with something new now.Would the ICC give them a fair hearing or treat them like how they have they treated Jayadevan now?If Shane Warne was an Indian or a Pakistani would he have been still allowed to play up to now?How long are we going to tolerate this horrible treatment from the ICC AND OTHERS??????????

ICC should be fair with the jaydevan. They should understand jaydevan's method. Duckworth-Lewis method is almost controversiol since it is launched. So, now lets forget about englishmen, try indian.

Interesting reading. The British still feel they are the the superior race. Since Jayadevan is Indian and brown skinned, how can the "white skinned" people accept that we are better than them? Such hypocrites. Even in this age, they discriminate on body colour.

Many instances can be written which will vouch for this discrimination. But BCCI remains quiet over it. As you have said in your interview, India has made a commecial success of the game and the riches it sees is because of us. Where was cricket going before Indian companies started sponsorships and started pumping in money into the game?

ICC should give due respect to talent and BCCI should make sure that that happens. But as history goes, it will never happen.

Lookslike S K Nair, Secretary, BCCI being from Kerala has not made any effort to promote a fellow Keralite in the international arena of Cricket.

D/L vs VJD

If everything writte in this article is true, then ICC's bias to D/L is ridiculous!!!
If VJD is indeed better than D/L in most cases, then it should be given a fair chance.
Now that we have an Aussie as the coach of the Indian team, we should try to bring some Aussie big names on our side and then go to ICC for yet another D/L vs VJD debate!! I guess that'll work.

Even though India is the world leader in software ICC feels otherwise due to its bias against India or any thing Indian.Whites never allow nonwhites to steal the show even if it is about sport. Besides accountability and transparency in foreign to ICC culture.It thrives on secrecy and camouflage.

Well said article to show racism prevails.

this doesnt directly leads to racism, but in an indirect way the ICC which is run by a group of english buisnessmen doesnt want a mathematician from india to get success out of its rules.

our BCCI the most irresponsible cricketing body of india, will sleep on this issue as usual, and the govt of india never even cares about any sports in india, just having a ministry for sports as a namesake.

what a way to say india grows in all fields except in sports, where their statisticians and players and coaches are undermined and neglected by a group of irresponsible humans in india and white men who still seem to rule the world in england.
