I agree with everything guha wrote 

 

I also believe he is a good guy with best interests of Indian cricket at heart 

 

 

He may be a good guy who wishes well for Indian cricket, but his email is petty, selfish and naive.   Its one thing to wax nostalgic about the value of test cricket, while writing pretty prose but when it comes to administration, you can't afford to be a delusional fan.   Did Guha give up his writing gigs on cricket while he was with the CoA? Wasn't that a conflict of interest on his own part?

Looks like the rantings of someone out of his depth & with zero knowledge of sport.

 

Ridiculous appointment in the first place.

dude btw while you are at it.

 

Explain why the * does your state have a state flag.

The only states in Indian republic that have seperate state flags - Jammu and Kashmir and Karnataka. Why exactly ?

 

No hate just curious.

Because he was getting out numbered against other three members of CoA.

So he should have added that to the letter too. 

Asli baat to kahi nahi ...purani katha suna di.

And there's whats wrong with Indian cricket.

 

Every word he wrote was the truth, seen by himself at first hand quarters but deemed to be petty, selfish and naive.no much wonder he felt he eas hitting his head sgainst a brick wall.

That's the most stupid thing of all.

Regardless of Dhoni is involved or not.

 

This test cricket is the be and all belongs in the 80s mentality.

 

Say if Bumrah develops of this trajectory for another year as limited overs bowler.Then he will be just as important as Pujara or any other test specialist even if he never plays test cricket for us.

I find this constant Pujara mention like he is a endangered gem that needs to be preserved  quite stupid.The guy did not get to play Ipl one year and suddenly he needs to be wrapped in cotton  and worshipped.

 

How is Pujara more talented than a Rohit or even a Stokes?

 

No matter how much the oldies want, kids won't espire to be Pujara...they want to be Kohli , Warner ,Stokes or even a pandya.

If Guha is so concerned with Indian cricket, why is he resigning.  He could have made his concerns public without resigning.  He is shirking responsibility after it was given to him by the highest court in the land, while trying to portray himself as this clean angel.   He has basically taken petty potshots at the rest of the Committee because they didn't agree with him and bypassed some of his obstructionist objections.   And taken his one-sided whinings to the media.   

 

His resignation is selfish.  Releasing his email to the public is petty, and some of his expectations are naive.   To expect that Commentators should divest themselves from their business interests is naive.   To expect that top coaches should somehow be excluded from the most lucrative cricket league in the world, if they want to make their services available to Indian cricket, is extremely naive.

Are you even serious, beetle? Pujara is 100 times more talented than Rohit Sharma. Stokes is a different beast though.

Different talents or say different limitations.

Why resigning? Because he is realistic not selfish.

 

Many many many people have something to lss by the BCCI and Indian cricket being sorted out, they wont allow it to happen. It will become a legal mine field for years.

 

Taking your advice i just informed my boss that i am taking two months off because i can get more money else where. When you serve your country its a priveledge to do so not the other way about that the country is privileged to have them

So he is somehow the only person of integrity now.  Even the likes of Diana Eduljee etc are corrupt.   Ego and arrogance are vices not limited to the corrupt.   Even self-righteous blowhards can succumb to it.  Especially Self-righteous blowhards.  

Oh bhai.. some time you need to read yourself on what you are writing.. you come to strange conclusions.

 

Anyways.. i think Guha is just the first one to quit. I expect the reaction from others as well.... may be they won't quit but they may go hard on following rules and regulations on integrity side of it..

So because Rahul Dravid works for Delhi Daredevils during the IPL season, he shouldn't coach the u-19 team.  Whose loss is that? Dravid's? or the Kids in the u-19 team?   And if Dravid wants to give back to Indian cricket and work with the young Indian players, he has to sacrifice his earning potential?   Your logic is massively flawed.   Your company gives you a paycheck, and it doesn't entitle them to demand 24/7 of your time does it?   The Dravid example is a very good instance of Guha's Naivete.   And your silly attempt at analogy showcases your poor understanding of the situation.
