Are we Indians shameless? Few days back a Congress journalist calls indians ugly, then a congress MP calls indians "bloody indians" and dogs. Next, they will say "Dogs and Indians not allowed in india. Only italians are allowed." We have become so shameless that no action has been taken against these.We have to raise voice against biased reporting. Google Search "Biased and Racist Journalism" and check the first link to understand how some journalists are fooling the nations. If you have any self respect share this with 10 friends atleast.
What a ridiculous waste of money!!! Why does the paying public have access to ONLY 3000 seats? who cares about the gymkhanas and Garware, etc? They are scalping the tickets they are allotted for sure.
Look at stadiums in australia, england or even south africa. Then take a look at the picture above or any cricket stadium in India. We have the worst stadiums in the world with stinking facilities. No proper seats, toilets and mainly no proper stands. Look at Perth, WACA, or SCG and look at our fate match cancelled at Eden Gardens due to under preparations. This just SUCKS and all the leeches are busy sucking money in IPL.

I agree with you. We have 3 problems. 1. Corruption 2. Corruption 3. Corruption
Unless that is eliminated, every country will laugh on us

Here is why is India the cancer of Asia:-
Over-corruptive Over-populated Over-conservative Overcrowded Poor Illiterate Dangerous Ine fficient Dirty Unhygienic Disrespectful Dishonest Intollerant Prejudiced Bigoted Racist Fascist Inequality Poor Human Rights Lack of Freedom of Speech Brainwashed (distracted with Bollywood, Cricket, Arranged marriages, modern-day enslavement, Religion) Dumb-down Democracy is fake (dummy) Terrorist state - (India buys defective and useless Weapons of Mass Destruction, from the terrorist states:- USA, Russia, Israel, France and UK etc) India will never gain anything from the foreign policy of the UK, Israel and USA. India cannot beat China and Pakistan if attacked first.

I think you guys have a brnding issue. Corruption is corruption only when it is not unfolded. If I am not mistaken staduiums in RSA, Newzealand, England - I see people have their ass on grass. Or may be a few bikini clads give you ungli main tingli.

Kumro, Those stadiums have open grassy seating area, for picnic like seating on a nice sunny day. Similar to Henman Hill in wimbledon. You cant compare that to the crap we have.
BCCI for some reason, does not invest in stadiums in India. They do contribute to funds elsewhere, but in India, they rely on local governments to maintain stadiums and loan it to them for matches. I would encourage them to build a few world class stadiums for cricket, but looking at what they did at Wankhede and Eden Gardens, it is pointless.
The dominance of bombay in cricket was due to the politics which kept away many brilliant players from team india,we had players like shashtri and gavaskar who played whole day and made 20-30 runs at that time,there were no killer instinct coming from bombay even the calibre of tendulkar does not beleive in winning,the later stages saw players from south india,north,and east providing the killer instinct and made team india what it is today.

What do you know about Shastri? He was one of the best one day player. I think when you started seeing one day matches Shastri were scoring in very low rate. That was his decline period. Gavaskar was one of the best players we have ever seen. During his time one day was not like todays. 225 run in 50 overs was a big score in that times. Please dont comment stupid things if you dont know anything.

Dear Anish, I agree with you that Gavaskar was one of the best batsman & Shastri also a good allrounder ut you will have to accept that both were made for the tests. If once Shastri has used long handle and hit six sixes does not make him a good one day player. Please do not take it other wise but this writer has a command as a spectator of the Cricket for the last more than forty years. Just for criticism one should not criticize. Regards BST
In what manner Wankhade and Eden Garden stadiums are different from one another as regards completion status is concerned as WC venues.
Only difference, is Wanhkade stadium has Mr. Pawars total backing, support and partonage which Eden garden doesn't, due to Pawar poltics with Mr. Dalmia.
Re: What Difference????
by Maximum on Feb 22, 2011 11:55 AM
What polotics can do is different But State of Stadium was incomplete is'nt that shameful for India
hey why sentimental? we should go for stadium with lakh seat capacity, it is sheer waste of money spent for renovation and it will no surprise to see sheer costly of ticket for seeing the match in final... IN SHORT IT IS WASTE OF MONEY SPENT.
What is the logic behind hosting a World cup final in a stadium with 33,000 capacity when there was Eden Gardens which can take about a lakh spectators!!!
Re: Why Wankhede???
by Maximum on Feb 22, 2011 11:58 AM
Because the beautliful stadium will start burning every time match changes its course and what if players go on strike on the day ??
