^ people complain about corruption when Mama is making money off BCCI powers. 

People dont find any issue if BCCI itself looses power and relatively massive amount of money to ICC and Pakistan, and thats not even corruption for them.

Friggin incompetent egomaniac corrupt lier CoA and anti national Manohar. I cant even comprehend how people can be opposed to Srinivasan considering what happened in last 2 years

ICC asks BCCI to pay USD 23 million or lose hosting rights for 2023 World Cup

ICC demands the money from BCCI after the government did not waive off taxes as promised for the 2016 World T20 in India.

 

Probably that was breaking Point. Now Mama is back

ICC’s softened 2023 stand amuses BCCI members

The ICC’s remark that the 2021 Champions Trophy and 2023 World Cup will not be moved out of India because of tax issues has caused more amusement than relief in the BCCI circles.

 

:hysterical:

 

Do hell to holier then thou people. Mama can stay and do whatever he wants with Indian cricket. I have complete faith in him.

 

Those who thinks honesty is needed for management. here is a small article

The only way India could have brought ICC back to the negotiating table was to threaten to pull out of the Champions Trophy and other ICC events. But CoA members spoke irresponsibly that India would not boycott the event, come what may, and thus diluted BCCI's options. They later claimed that they said so in their personal capacity but the damage was done.

India could have used the threat to renegotiate a better deal especially as 80 per cent of ICC's revenue came from India. The country also spends a lot more on spreading, developing and playing the game. For instance, India have 37 state teams playing Ranji Trophy. On the other hand the Australian domestic format has a paltry six teams! The same number as New Zealand while Bangladesh have four teams competing.

Thus, India could really use the money for developing infrastructure. coaching camps, academies and its various state teams in the u-23, 19, 16 sections in both men and women's groupings.

This really was the biggest blow for Indian cricket and unless BCCI issues are quickly sorted out there could be more trouble when the next tranche of rights — 2023 onwards — comes up for negotiation.

In fact, the ICC after tasting blood even threatened to take away the next lot of World T20 and World Cup hosting from India if the Indian government did not give them tax breaks. However, probably sensing that Indian cricket circles had wised up and things were a lot different from when they had a free run just before the 2017 Champions Trophy in England, the ICC has lowered its tone substantially. But the fact that they threatened India while the CoA meekly accepted their diktats is a dark chapter in this on-going tussle.

These apart Indian cricket is facing a crisis to even run at current levels. There is a glaring shortage of grounds, curators, umpires, match referees and the like caused by the sudden explosion of matches following the inclusion of nine new state units. These can only be developed over a period of time. Expertise will take a lot more time and effort.

The problems are already showing: Far too many Ranji Trophy matches have finished within three days. Some, like the semifinal between Kerala and Vidharbha, inside two days as the quality of pitches were horrendous. So too some of the umpiring.

One of the coaches said that it would be worthwhile to check the number of LBWs among bat numbers 8,9,10,11 in junior cricket.

"Some of these umpires don't have patience and want to wrap up the innings quickly; thus the glut of lbws among lower order batsmen. Additionally it gives a false picture about the success of a bowler," he alleged.

One cricket association official said that state units were not running state academies to desired levels as they did not have money. The CoA was not releasing funds for development of the game, he said.

"The Virat Kohlis, Shubhman Gills, et al were developed patiently over 15 years. The last couple of years have hit scouting, training and developing young talent pretty hard. This will have an effect in the next four to five years."

"The CoA releases funds for matches. But that does not take care of overall wages, salaries, water, electricity, grass culture, fertilisers and soil. These are being done on a 'need-to' basis. This is one reason why pitches and outfields are in such poor shape in many centres. The situation at junior levels is very bad. The game is slowly being squeezed dry," he alleged.

Another pointed out that "there were ridiculous disputes like the one with MP cricket association over complimentary passes. MP refused to host the West Indies match unless they could dole out a greater number of complimentary passes to various service providers. That game was shifted to Vizag."

The issue concerning Puducherry where eligibility rules for local players were first relaxed and then withdrawn after other associations protested was shown as yet another example of CoA goofing up.

Detractors were also unhappy that the CoA's poor running of the game had caused confusion and angst in the selection of women's team coach.

"Where was the need for the CoA to get into this scrap? That was an administrative matter that the cricket committee ought to have sorted out," a cricket association official said.

State associations, the backbone of BCCI, are reeling from lack of clarity, direction and funds. Some are struggling even to pay salaries. In such gloom how can they work to promote and develop junior cricket, asked one official.

The general consensus is the last two years have been bad for the development of Indian cricket. The overseas victories by Kohli's team is driving and sustaining interest. But CoA disunity, fights and mismanagement is hampering the development of the game.

"Not a single worthwhile camp, academy, ground or initiative has come through the last two years," an administrator pointed out.

Perhaps the last word on CoA and these past two years should be with Justice RM Lodha himself. In a recent interview he said: "They are making a spectacle of themselves...If they can't function together, they should stop functioning and report to the court that they can't get along. ... You can't play with an institution like this. I don't see light at the end of this tunnel."

Only negative is Dhoni  stays in team and in white ball cricket we play multitude of csk players and tamil nadu player like Shankahar. Small price to pay india team sucking with csk/tamil clique if we get money from others and can bully them!

Disagree there. He has earned his shot through consistent performances on A tours and he has looked like a very good bat. Yes not an allrounder
