World's best players like Roger Federer, Andy Roddick or Cricketers of other countries and 500 sporting bodies worldwide have signed the clause and respect anti doping.
WADA code is draconian only for Corrupt and selfish Indian cricketers only because they take banned substannces and fear being caught anytime. Their actions prove that they are guilty and running for cover.
BCCI and its cricketers are so irritated with the code and now making execuses of privacy.

Dude,BCCI is nothing but a betting syndicate that whips up the national sentiments at their convenience.How else can you explain the interests shown by the folks like pawar,modi etc in this game.Is it because they love the game? A marwadi business man like modi is not going to spend his valuable time for the game ..just coz he loves it. or our union agri minister who in the past was known to be close to D company.. or the crook who is heading BCCI now.I read somewhere that he was responsible for the stadium collapse in Nagpur few yrs back.They made sure that ppl are crazy about this game and now they are just reaping the benefits.

Cant say as Saurav himself was propped up initially by the biggest fraud - Dalmiya.There are ex cricketers who are excellent managers/administrators.They are capable of running the show.But it seems like the entire stuffs is now being controlled by D-company as its a multi crore business for them...just look back at the Woolmer episode .. how pak govt stepped in to hush it up.
Re: Re: Re: Re: Why Indian Cricketers are so irritated?
by Patriot on Aug 09, 2009 02:19 PM
it is true that dalmiya was no better than pawar and his cronies. but the cricket board would be much better if we had ex-players i.e. players who have at least played some first class matches , to run the show here. I doubt if Pawar can even differentiate between in-swing and out-swing bowling.
Re: Why Indian Cricketers are so irritated?

Dude, most of the jokers in the BCCI haven't played cricket in their lives or were pathetically incompetent even if they did.(Ask Rajeev Shukla, Sharad Pawar, Shashank Manohar and the other fatsos to run 10 meters and they would collapse because of exhaustion). The cricketers are even worse, they want to play only for money. Now they are scared that skeletons would fall from their cupboards of they complied with WADA rules.

You are right.Cricket is a casual,lazy game which can be played by unfit people and just about anybody. Remember the fat man Gooch with a large stomach.He was a common sight in cricket matches a few decades back.Or our own Gundappa Vishwanath,the fat slob.

hey mr jacob, u dont know how to play cricket its not our fault. cricket is not just a game its a thriller story full of action drama, art and emotions. angur khatte hai naa mile to. its easy to make comments and critise the game rather playing urself.

The rich and wealthy cricket board BCCI which brings 80% of money in cricket has been using its influence thats why no Indian cricketer was ever caught.
But the way Indian cricketers are reacting to WADA code, they are actually proing their guilt.

the older cricketers arent that dumb as bhajji and yuvraj. these guys are bound to use cocaine and meth.
Why the fuss from Indian cricketrs? Are they for dope or against? What is the harm to indicate whereabouts to WADA?Change the place and send a msg. It is time the ICC and WADA take a strong stand and disqualify Indian cricketers. They feel that they are bigger than the game and the country.Knock some good sense into them.They are not invading anyone's privacy. To know where u are for the dope testing is important as sports and lifstyles have to be rid of dope. K Ramani Mumbai

At least Gooch and Vishwanath were talented players. Harbhajan is more interested in abusing and being a racist freak.
You will go for buying vegetables? Where? Which vegetables? May be long brinjal, if you are a section .....?
Whom you people are trying to fool? WADA is not Australian cricket board to believe your monkey comment as Maa-ki comment? Even that comment showed your culture, way you were brought up, your respect for fellow sportsman.
You are only empowered by the money power of BCCI and the nadness of Indian cricket fans, nothing else.
Re: Bhajji - You are a real cheater
by chakravarty devulapalli on Aug 09, 2009 01:14 PM
He wants to buy vegetables once he is out of the team!! so y should WADA bother him then?? Fair enough! I agree Bhajji! Unless his aanewaaali biwi wanted WADA to test him regularly!
If only people stopped treating cricketers as demi-gods,we would have been no.1 in cricket long back.Instead a country like SA is no.1 now overtaking the mighty aussies. It is shameful that a country like SA which was banned from playing intl.cricket[due to racism] for so many years had overtaken India to become no.1. It is because of cricketers like these that India has never been no.1[in icc rankings].
Re: demi-gods
by msgblogger on Aug 09, 2009 01:20 PM
Ajai ..SA even during the apartheid days had arguably one of the strongest teams with the Pollocks,Procter,Barry Richards,Clive Rice etc and had a very strong domestic structure.So its hardly suprising that they are on the top now.Where has BCCI believed in dictating their terms and conditions to their fellow cricket boards.So just dont blame the players alone.For me it seems a bit suspicious.IF one says we have objection to testing, the cat will be out of the bag.So the work around is that we cant allow testing to be done during the off periods.And WADA wont change the clause for a game which is played in just a handful of states.So you have to read btw the lines here :)

Well u can argue performance enhancing drugs might increase the speed with which a bowler bowls. But for that I feel a routine drug test before or after the events is enough. I again say to you that WADA code is simply draconian

Most of the other sports do not have any hallmark championhip trophies conducted every year. The only dream they have is to win an olympic medal. But cricket in it\'s own way is a big game. I don\'t think any cricketer would ever dream of winning an olympic medal. Just a thought!

u can ask Md Asif or Akhtar. Even Akram and Waqar smoked pot in WI during the 1990s - those are drugs too. And WADA testing would prevent all these personal choices!

Yuvi and other Indian cricketers are not against dope tests. Infact, they are routinely tested when on tour. I hope u remember Shahid Afridi was tested just after the T20 final. So testing isn’t new to cricket. The issue is different. I am very romantic about cricket and a die hard test match fan. .I often enjoy test matches with a peg or two of whisky and puffs of marijuana. I mean to say to you that these guys are mortal and how they spend their leisure time at home or anywhere shouldn't raise anybodies eyebrows. So what if a cricketer lazes around with puffs of marijuana when not on tour. The WADA is nobody to judge how a cricketer should spend his personal time. I think BCCI is absolutely right by supporting the cricketers. Moreover, cricket unlike other personal events is played for a longer duration. The shortest version of the game takes twice the time taken to play a football match. In athletic events like swimming, running where the game spans a mere few seconds it is more probable the outcome of a game can be ruled by consuming performance enhancing drugs. Another important perspective which you should consider is running or swimming or even cycling involves similar body movements throughout the entire span of events But in cricket sometimes u run at others u jump to hold a catch. Even when a batsman bats he puts forward a repertoire of shots that involves different body movements. Well u can argue performance enhancing drugs might increase the speed with which

this guy sux! bhaaji is an overrated player and talks filth and thinks street fights are the way to go. He also thinks being a punjabi gives him the license to say anything and get away. He was 100% GUILTY in those racist comments against Symonds (I agree Symonds is not saint!! -but racist comments are not acceptable). Thnk goodness Bhajji is not captaining India!

Roopesh ..that was his thanksgiving. Saurav backed bhajji when he ran into trouble with his bowling action.He was kept out in the late nineties due to suspect action ..then Saurav backed him to the hilt.

So how can you prove Mr. Chkravarty's comment to read in between the lines. The bowling action issue was happend long before and if i take your word that bajji is still supporting saurav for this, he is the only person who has some moral value and he values the relations nad he never forgets the help being provided by others

by msgblogger on Aug 09, 2009 01:09 PM
Well I commented on the ur Saurav - Bhajji angle.Bowling action issue came in around 98 or 99 not before that.In fact he was brought back by Saurav in 2000 if I remember it right and hence the gratitude .. which is good in the sense that he didnt forget his past.
