I think the BCCI not only lacks in having experts in handeling cricket and manage its funds well for the development of the game and welfare of cricketers but it also seem to be blind to the legal position as far as the meaning of "pension" is concerned. The courts have made it very clear that "according to the Supreme Court ruling, the pension is a deferred salary and not an ex-gratia payment (that is, a payment made as a favour rather than an obligation). " So when these cricketers are threatened that their pension will be stopped it shows either the BCI has no respect for the rulings of the apex court or their legal bigwigs are only enjoying the perks of cricket collected due to the hardwork of those cricketers in yesteryears whom they are threatening now.
It will not be a bad idea of BCCI and ICL to work together and develop the much needed infrastructure for cricket rathere than fight each other.
Can you imagine that of the eight northeastern states not even one has a cricket stadium. What is preenting the two in joining hands and giving each state a stadium atleast with proper infrastructure and coaching centres.
BCCI wants coach for a player who has already proved that he is good enough to play for the country but they have no interest in sponsoring coaces in states and bring up the budding players and have not one senior team but may be all states teams and have tough indian circuit to in coming 5 years. Want more about organisation?
Indians don't need coach.don't understand why board is so keen on bringing foreign coach.If board don't know where to keep their money... they can donate to flood effected people of assam and bihar
