How can it be "a great embarrassment to the nation" . Since BCCI categorically said in the past that Nobody controls them. They are a autonomous institution. Even they said in a cout, If I remember correctly So Something Bad or untoward happens.. These folks take the Nation's Name. Its Shame for BCCI Not for the others or for India
Dalmiya could be the most professional. He made BCCI the most richest. Board's action on coach selection and other pity issues may make him think optimist to regain power in BCCI in the near future. Power Sab may concentrate in development of agriculture in the era of WTO crisis.

I guess, Dalmia, though a very greedy kind of a guy, managed things very well and for a long time. The current board members don't know how to handle even a single issue. On every issue right from player's endorsements, coach selection, branding senior players as if they are creating problems, they don't know how to go about. They are probably the most unprofessional of all the people involved in the indian cricket. Though i don't like Dalmia, i still feel he is a better person to handle the BCCI. He has got better control and he is clear in decision making and very shrewed in implementing.

PAWAR IS GOOD TO START CO-OPERATIVES AND COLLECT MONEY FOR HIS PERSONNAL USE. IF YOU SAY HE IS VERY GOOD ADMINSTRATOR , I HAV NOT SEEN MUCH CHANGE IN INIDAN AGRICULTURE MAY BE HE WAS BUSY SCREWING DALMIA .. SO NO TIME ANYWAY THE MONEY AND POWER IS IN BCCI NOT POOR FARMER ??? THEY CANT GIVE THE MONEY WHAT PAWAR IS LOOKING SO FARMER'S NAME PAWAR'S KAM ??? THAT IS MAKING MONEY

There are two more buttons called capslk or Shift in the key Board. Please first try to learn how to use both of them well before expressing your opinion freely.
AS was evident from thepiles and piles of runs he has been scoring and proving that he is the best indian batsman and much much better compared to rahul Dravid, he is the new wall of indian batting order, as the earlier wall nowadays always crumbles ! ! !
He has proved all his critics wrong and made a phenomenal comeback to international cricket, he is the only man who deserves to become captain of this side in the present lot.
Rahul Dravid is useless and incompetent, and spineless and has no aggression, with him as skipper indian team is destined to go thru a much longer nightmare, just think of it, all present problems have happened in rahul's tenure and he is incompetent and doesnt command respect from the team!!!!!
It can be disastrous to continue with him, and then India would only feel good beating sides like bangla, ireland, scotland, nethreland, japan, kenya, zimbabwe, nepal, bhutan
Get DADA back as captain now, he was, is and will always remain the true and passionate cricketer who always plays with his heart and soul for the country. Come on DADA, blow the heck of the opponents wrong side.... great we love you and wish you everlasting GLORIES!!!!
You are the man who has hit max sixes, you are the man who was fastest to reach upto 9000 runs... you are legend

The problem with Bengali people are that they woke up saying Sourav,Sourav and while going to bed repeat saying Sourav ...sourav & sourav . These people are still living in 17th century and that is the only reason why Bengal is going worse day by day due to narrow mind of of the people like aatank.
One day a fourth-grade teacher asked the children what their fathers did for a living. All the typical answers came up -- businessman, doctor, lawyer, and so forth.
However, a little boy was being uncharacteristically quiet, so when the teacher prodded him about his father, he replied, "My father's an exotic dancer in a gay cabaret and takes off all his clothes in front of other men and they put money in his underwear. Sometimes, if the offer is really good, he will go home with some guy and stay with him all night for money."
The teacher, obviously shaken by this statement, hurriedly set the other children to work on some exercises and then took the little boy aside to ask him, "Is that really true about your father?"
"Not really," the boy said, "He actually plays cricket for India but I was too embarrassed to say that in front of the other kids.

Joke is in bad taste . This is not the right forum where young girls and boys also attend to express their opinion and see your dirty jokes . Pl clean your mind first .
1 - They ignore the most credible and interested candidate just because they think they have plenty of choices.
2 - Once that is done a sudden realization comes as to who else as there are none interested in working with these idiots.
3 - They use all their charm to call two gentleman from abroad with some coaching experience.
4 - Once that is done the idiots of BCCI and former players agains started showing their tantrums.
5 - June 4th meeting was a waste of time, as they can not take decisions.
6 - June 9the was scheduled as the next day for interviewing, but it can only start at 9 PM because these monkeys are not in theor respective cages and were roaming around thee circus arena.
7 - Once the interview process started look what they demanded from those professional coaches: 7i: Join us immediately leaving all your work. 7ii: We can only give you one year contract. 7iii: You can not bring any support staff. 7iv: You can not say anything to any of our star players, else they will go to depression. 7v: You can not bring in modern techniques because our players are not flexibe in learning. 7vi: Produce excellent result 7vii: What ever we do or how many times your are unduly blamed for different fracas do not open your mouth to the media.
8 - End of this tamasha they go ahead and choose one of them and declare the result.
9 - The professionals go back and did not even consider it twise before rejecting the offer

wow wow wow, wonderfully decribed "devil said" i fully agree yr words. Until this entire flop bcci officials and shastri/gavaskar thrown out from the indian cricket, we will not have any bright future for our young upcoming cricketers too. now i feel dalmiya team is far better than this bunch of fools
So the name Given for the Cricket Board of India is correct.It never develops Talent or even if somebody wants to develop also they wont allow. This was the case with ICL and also with Chappel. What Chappel said was exactly true ,u want ur team to play like Australia,but u run your cricket like Zimbabwe,now it seems Zimbabwe Board is better than our Board. Total unporfessionalism u can found in BCCI.Well Said Chappel and good decision By Ford.Otherwise after 6 months ,to save Ganguly & sachin they will make Ford as Scape Goat. God only can save Indian Cricket.
All this shit is because we donot have any good Marathi Coach left and these marathis will not let any other Indian handle the indian team. Cmon they can think of only Chandu Borde who is 74 years old and that too unanimously??? More, Ravi Shastri, Gavaskar, Vengsarkar, Pawar they all have taken the Cricket board hostage. Gavaskar and Shastri can not leave the lucrative career with Star but still keep on interfereing with the selection of team and coaches. By the way who are Shastri and Gavaskar to decide that we dont want Whatmore as cricket coach. Then they also decide ( although helped by so called senior players read Tendulkar) that they want non Indian as coach. They forget we have enough good Players Like Mohinder Amarnath who can prove excellent. Dont tell me I am racist bcoz I am not but these Marathis are. These people never say Jai Bharat they always greet each other with Jai Maharashtra have you ever heard Jai Tamilnadu or Jai Punjab. you cannot expect patriotism from them

you are 1000% right my freind. these guys screwing up the indian cricket. these guys taking things for granted and they think bcci and indian cricket is there own house and can do what ever they wish. god has to save our indian cricket.
RE:No Marathi Coaches available
by dev dath on Jun 13, 2007 03:53 PM
why not the so called great gavaskar give advise to his son and make him play some good cricket
u said rightly it is maratis have taken over so rename it as
marati board for control of cricket of india( by the way they are only controlling and not doing anything else much)
the modern india with high flying under 40's are the people to sort out the bcci..sorry those days have gone where we should tolerate idiots that are there by fluke and not results..i'd work for free to sort this bcci mess out..just £540 return flight to manchester and i'm happy..second thoughts..i'll pay to get over and do the work for free..
I think it is the right time to bring back the Jagmohan Dalmiya for the good of Indian Cricket. Sharad Pawar, Kiran More and Rahul Dravid has put Indian Team to enough crisis. let the real guyz come and takeover for the good of the game that we all love so very much
