Ironhide Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 Good news everyone, Shahsank Manohar has made sure that Indian cricket is undermined at every level under this new structure, losing 1000s of crores and no longer having the chance of boycotting India-Pakistan series without losing points. Important Quote: The duration of the series will be up to the members - even a one-off Test can be considered a series. The system of how points will be awarded, given that each series will not be of the same length, is yet to be worked out. The home and away stipulation is such that, if, for example, New Zealand tours Sri Lanka in the first two-year league cycle, then in the following one Sri Lanka will tour New Zealand. If one team refuses to play another - as has been the case with India playing Pakistan - they will forfeit points. http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci-icc/content/story/1080769.html G_B_, tweaker and Rasgulla 2 1 Link to comment

This has nothing to do with Lodha committee. Manohar had these same idea from way before he became the ICC president. The BCCI knew his ideas from before. New guy 1 Link to comment

moniker Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 Only fair, sports and politics shouldn't mix. If one team has an issue with playing against another on a political basis in a league system then they should forfeit the points. Well, that's fair in a league system, yes. But that's why many here are against having a league system in the first place. The Indian government won't allow one particular country to tour (many fans don't want them to tour too) and we don't want our points to be docked because of that. Link to comment

A particular country is a scum terrorist shit hole the only game India wants tp play with them is some automatic fire and alm under a su or mig. India will just extend IPL and punish icc , ICC is not strong enough to imagine forcing Indian govt to have any relations with pak. I find it laughable bcci is busy with indian SC at the moment,each offical behind this will have a cost esp Shashak Manohar. Link to comment
Vilander Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 Bcci needs to do a few things. Develop a second side by design with less charismatic players to be used with ICC formalities. Identify development territories in other potential countries like US Canada Afgan etc and develop some tournaments etc, it will be tough but we gotta break free from this ICC politics.

No its about Pakistanis Killing Indians and then hiding the masterminds.There will not be any cricket with Pakistan.The ICC will be literally going to war with the Govt of India if they try to force this.

Vilander Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 BD and Afghanistan will benefit. It won't take much time to set up mutually beneficial exclusive tour plans with eng AUS sa afg bd bcci already has will and SL. This won't get passed from a commercial angle Link to comment
Sandeep99 Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 BS. India will right royally continue ditching our bitches. And the ICC/world won't do anything. King Tendulkar 1 Link to comment
Pollack Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 (edited) So let us loose! What's the big deal.They are just freaking points.Let's not start playing for the sake of points. Edited February 5, 2017 by Pollack G_B_ 1 Link to comment
King Tendulkar Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 Nothing wil stop our finanncial power and nothing will stop us running things But more money for poorer countries is great thing. Windies and SL for example great if they can pay players more and invest more in infrastucture. Great if Irland get more money etc Dont worry lads our boys will still be top of the pile . We wint lack for ££ The panic here is hilarious ps we can not play pak whenever we want . Lose a few points no more Link to comment
chewy Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 Better to forfeit points then entertain a terrorist nation and help them make money Sandeep99, Ironhide, Sidhoni and 2 others 5 Link to comment
