It is only after Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal's sensational claim on Tuesday that DDCA's top officials have allegedly been seeking sexual favours from a senior TV journalist's wife to field his son in a Delhi team, the issue has snowballed into a major controversy.

But why did DDCA not act when the same incidents were reported in 2007 and 2008? It was reported in 2007 and 2008 that a senior DDCA selector allegedly demanded sexual favour from a 13-year-old aspiring cricketer's mother to play the boy in a sub-junior team.

When the boy's father learnt about this, he hired a prostitute for Rs 5,000 and presented her as his wife. This, according to the boy's father, was far less an amount than what selectors demand.

Interestingly, during a selection trial of Delhi's sub-junior team in 2007, one of the selectors allegedly made vulgar advances towards the mothers of several young aspirants.

Having come to know about this, the father of this 13-year-old boy took the selector out for dinner, along with his wife. Midway, the father got an urgent call and left, asking his wife to drop the selector home. The mother and selector exchanged phone numbers and private dates before she returned. Soon, she allegedly obliged him to get her son into the team.

But it took this top selector one full year to eventually find out, till the time this boy came to Delhi's team trials in 2008, that the woman he had met and dated was not the boy's mother, but someone who had been paid to do a job!

However, no action was taken against this selector (who is still holding a top position in DDCA) even after the story was published.

In most of the age-group selection trials, many a DDCA selector and officials have been found offering a package deal to parents.

"The ongoing rate for an Under-14 team starts from Rs 4.5 lakh. It goes up to Rs 10 lakh if you want your son to play all the matches," said a senior DDCA official, on condition of anonymity.

In fact, it was only a few days back that a player was reportedly included in the Ranji team without the knowledge of any selectors despite the fact that he was not even in the list of the first 33. He eventually played for Delhi against Andhra in the one-dayer amidst murmurs about his selection.

Shocked to hear about the extent of corruption in UP Cricket. Young talent being curbed by corrupt agents asking for favours. Hope @ShuklaRajiv ji ensures a fair investigation and justice to the young talent & helps restore UP Cricket.I stand by all those who have been exploited

 

 

Corruption has been the root cause for the sad state of UP cricket and it stands exposed today. Shame that the future of young talent and UP cricket is compromised for personal gains. Hope fair investigation would help restore the the dignity of the sport to its former glory.

The sad thing is he is asking corrupt Rajiv Shukla to investigate things who is a thug and has links with underworld wasn’t there an article where it was mentioned that he met Dawood in Lahore in 2004 during India’s tour of Pakistan.Ye corrupt politicians kya fair investigation karainge.

Cricket has become like other profession. Bribes for selections, match fixing by players, sexual scandals for jobs. It will go on spreading more as cricket becomes more lucrative profession. Governance has to be set for cricket as well rather than the internal BCCI governance team which may or may not be there. BCCI has to come under the ambit of other governing bodies.

He can't do this so brazenly without the blessing of his higher ups.

In salon ko nanga karke, kaalik potna chahiye. These people deserve to be stripped of their so called dignity, in Parliament they act civil but outside everyone knows what they are!
