What about the rest before and after 15 ? Even Sachin’s name is there ! Don’t they also have similar contracts, conflicts of interests. etc..etc.for sure .? Are they also hounded by their respective media the way Indian media is after Dhoni ? In a country where it is very common for rich and powerful people con PSU bank loans in hundreds and thousands of crores at least this fellow has earned all his money through his efforts and his own money. Is the media hounding him because of his closeness to Srinivasan who they think derives his powers from Dhoni’s brilliant performances on the field ? Why was it that during his failure in ENG and Aus no one talked about his pvt. contracts, conflicts of interests etc.? Main problem seems to Dhoni doing well and Srini getting the advantage of it . With Srini stepping aside, Boria Mazumdar feels ‘there is change’ and so the Indian captain Dhoni will have to speak sooner or later. More important Boria is happy “…not all roads will lead to Chennai any more…” .So the first objective is achieved. So far so good. Obviously CSK , the world beaters is the next on the firing line to be followed by Dhoni himself. This Dhoni fellow is actually not just Srini’s strength but is also bettering past supposed to be best captains ! That cannot be allowed to happen at any cost.

Cricket has virtually NO Competition in India when it comes to endorsements . Tennis players on other hand face competition from F1 Golf, Football etc in Eorope, and U S. Nadal for example, faces competition from - F1, Football in his own country. With just 20% market left for Tennis in Europe, No surprise Nadal trails Dhoni who gets alomost 85% India's sports Market. It's Locality( Area) advantage for Dhoni.
