Age fudging - The Menace

[nsareen 137]

We all know age fudging being a big menace to age group cricket. Even though BCCI has taken corrective steps with bans, there are very less preventive steps in place to stop the Menace.
 
Latest case is of DDCA U19 cricketer Prince Yadav who has been banned by BCCI for age fudging!! Age fudging was of 5 years, presented age is 2001 & investigates age is 1996, difference is huge!!
 
How can people be demotivated doing age fudging ?

Article says case pending against Manjot Kalra as well... He scored the winning century in the worldcup final

[Oldhere 209]

North Indians are into it specially from states like UP, Haryana, Punjab, Delhi.

 

Before someone bring northie/southie thing, im from Haryana only and personally know multiple such cases.

 

One such example is Priyank Huda. He played a ranji season some years back.

 

Another is Sehwag. He had reduced almost 5 years.

It's pretty common in South as well specially the subarbs and rural areas. It's across the board regardless of the region.

Actually in case of Manjot the parents of other fellow cricketers complained to the DDCA about his age fudging, DDCA investigated & found discrepancies about his DOB. Delhi police filed a chargesheet against Kalra's parents as at the time FIR was filed he was still a minor.

Increased!!! Hain !!!!!

I am sick of people saying  "Does it really matter if he fudged his age ? See his talent. " 

 

Well. Fucck.. it does matter. Why ? Let's say......

 

If Shami (28y )  gets injured now and takes a year break and regains fitness , he'll be brought straight back into the team because he'll only be 29 and still at his "peak". 

 

But if he was 34 (which I think he is) , and regains fitness after a year, selectors will most likely look at a worthy young bowler to replace him, which means that by faking the age, they're not only deceiving the system, but also blocking a youngster to get a place in the team. 

 

P.S - I've nothing against Shami bhaai. I'm a big fan of his bowling and texting.

Lol at claims of Shami being 34. When was the last time you saw 34 yo pacer bowling at full pace in tests for whole year? 

 

Those claims are ridiculous.

Mitch Johnson was 33 when he blasted out England and South Africa back in 2014. And he was atleast 5kph quicker than Shami on average. 

 

Could think of many others like Steyn, Ambrose, Donald etc who used to bowl quicker than Shami in their mid 30s. 

[R!TTER 2,109]

34 does sound OTT, I think he's close to 32/33 right now & could have one last tour vs Oz in him.

Decreased, not increased, to make him play u-14, but he was 15, so reduced the age by one year.

You are spot on.Could not have said it better myself .Age fudging is a big problem.

[putrevus 4,540]

Our great Naseem Shah will now bowl his thunderbolts in under19 world cup.Does he look under 19 by any means.

No wonder his reflexes has gone down so much 

[ganeshran 93]

BCCI should crack down on this hard. No point in winning U19 competitions if these players are playing with other younger guys. It doesn't give selectors the right picture

Ambrose wasn't quicker at age of 34.

 

Steyn broke down. 

 

Donald was last leg in 2001.

 

Johnson had that spell at 32-33 and retired at 34.

 

Shami is peaking right now. Going to your examples only, he will be close to 30 than 34.

[putrevus 4,540]

What is the point in winning if teams knowingly help players who fudge their ages.
