It%u2019s happening at the right time!!! It%u2019s high time for India to have real professional cricketers (like Australia & SA). To have parallel League, which is already followed in many cricketing nations & also in other sports such as football (UFA, champions league etc..) which is much better option then only having just 1 first class competition like Ranji Trophy! Surely will be an exciting competition to see not just between players but also between BCCI & Zee!!! ;o)
Reasons of failure of team India. by Indra Sengupta on Apr 03, 2007 07:33 PM | Hide replies
Reasons of failure of team India. a)Cricket is a team game. If you remove the Captain mercilessly just when he started recovering from a bad patch with a predetermined plan.From one day, from test and then from the team altogether, you disturb the rythm of the team. b)You with vengeance start serching for an alternative to a person who still has a few years of cricket left, then your intentions are clear.You do not think about cricket or the team, you just have a petty agenda of blocking somebody's chances of redemtion, corrections and improvements. c) This petty agenda gets you out of focus. All your energy is concentrated on a negative agenda.You cn not see positive feel positive.In such a situation you can never be a role model. Other players canot accept you as a true leader. d)You also are not consistent in your planning. You go on testing players till the eve of the cup. Instead of encouraging the players going through a bad patch, you abuse them and drop them. You try very mediocre players from the domestic circuit. Here also you do not bring in the most prolific run getters of most wicket taking bowlers from the domestic cicuit. e) In a word you create an air of uncertainty among all the players. The old the new and the not so old. f) In such a given situation you can not get the best from your team. All the members become shaky and uncertain. g) You ruin the team in the process and your expection that players would give their best out of fear psychosis is a wrong theory.Negative incentive is not as rewarding as a positive incentive of appreciation from your coach or captain. " You didnt play? Okay never mind. Actually you should have done this or should not have done this. All right better luck next time, we are with you." h) This is called team spirit. This is called man management. I understand Chappel Rahul combination totally failed to consider this aspect of Indian cricket.They thought they would carry on experiments, drive out all legacies of the past captain and somehow put up a disjointed bunch of brilliant players who will perform for them. This is nver possible. The team spirit left by Saurav legacy continued in the first phase of Rahul Chappel era and won some matches. It evaporated too soon. Too much of experiments and ulterior motive ruined the team and the resultant humiliation for a nation of 125 million followed. This is clear logic. In the circumstances I see only one person standing above the rest to lead India for another two years required for grooming a new leader. This interim Captaincy must go to Saurav Ganguly. Obstinates term me as regionally biased, but it is only a coincidence that he is also an Indian hailing from the East.
Zee Tv Mismanagement story 1- Zee cine star ki khoj ---- its still a khoj. 2- Zee Business baazigar - is it telecasted? I hope it would be. 3- Parallel cricket league - Yet to be start. I hope hoon jaye.
Request to Subhash Ji - " Presenting Idea and ceating corpus of money cannot create exitement in market but Implementation of idea is real art. No doubt it is a good idea and its like slap to BCCI but I hope you are having a team for its implementation.

I agree with the above suggestion. To add the list Zee TV itself is bogus and revolves around few crab serials. However, this gives light to many others to open a Cricket league. The Cricket stadium in cities lies vacant for years without effective usage (Other than party thrown by top notch members). This is good time to explore this like NBA and NFL.
look at this in this way now we might even hav two eams representing india in the comig world cups, so that can in some ways increase our world cup winning chances, a few decades later we might even hav a world cup in which all the teams ar from india and finally india will hav a record 100 % winning rate for the world cupo
i guess Zee TV people have got crazy. this is again another gimmick of the media and tv channels to cash in on the current slump in indian cricket. we should not encourage these wild and killing ideas. i think i am very clear in my mind that here after i would watch only test cricket. no one-day cricket for me any more.
People never bothered this much when tsunami struck India and Pakistan attacked India. As long as these petty things become national issues, these businessmen never miss a single opportunity to exploit people. This time it is Zee TV trying to make money in the name of Cricket blaming BCCI of killing, rather than nurturing, fresh talent in cricket. Why Zee TV is not bothered about the poverty poor education pollution and crimes, which have been damaging India%u2019s future

very soon u will find lot of other organisations lined up to start their own league. our marketing guys just need a small oppurtunity and they go till the limits and u know what ultimately the fan and the game is the looser
This is great news. But Subhash Chandra should seriously manage this league. It should not turn out to be a total failure after a big start (like few of the ZEE TV shows). The greatest hurdle will be BCCI (gang of politicians) along with few senior players; they will try their level best to see how this league becomes a flop show. Secondly will he manage to get some star international players who can boost morale of our youngsters who will be playing with them in this league? What about 2 national team players per team, who will be ready to play in this league, they (national players) will definitely face resistance from BCCI. Will these players be selected in national side based on their performance in the league. If this plan of launching the league succeeds then: We will have players who will compete any team at any destination. This will be becos of exposure of young talents to the technique and talents of international players. Becos of tough contest, the game of those national players who would be playing this league will improve remarkable. Becos SURVIVAL OF FITTEST matters

Zee will not let 100 crores go down the drain. I hope they get the membership of BCCI cancelled (hopefully), and then we can get the real Indian team.
If international cricketers of indian origin will lead the side in the new format we will not enjoy it rather we will protest against it these players have done such a thing in world cup so that we can not forgive them, they should be banned for their future. We all are panalised for our mistakes why don't these players who done these big mistake knowingly.
