Arshdeep shatters stumps worth ₹24 lakh twice !!!

[velu]

 

24 lakh for a stump is fecking travesty  

motion , touch or infra sensor wont cost more than 100rs each 

 

relaince or Bajaj can manufacture these for less than 20k

Why they spend so much money in stumps anyway? Is it worth it?

 

I know its LED and all but surely 24 lakh rupees is way too much money

Venkatesh Prasad too once shattered stumps,but that wasn't 25 lakh stumps

An INR 24L stump (or could be a set of 6 stumps + 4 bails) is like spare change for BCCI!

 

BCCI would be paying for both hardware and software.

Ask his parents, "paisa kon bharega??!! "  

 

When we shattered even a small glass pane worth 50 Rs in our childhood playing gully cricket, homeowners used to come out to yell.

The base price of some of the players isn't even that. Maybe they can grab a couple of these after a win or something and double their worth

[Lord]

For context Arshdeep was bought for 20 lakhs.

Could be … But those stumps do pack a lot of technology (sensors, cameras, etc. - of the best quality) that needs to be reliable (cannot afford it to fail at crucial moment). 

Also the (research and) development is done mainly for cricket, and stumps last for a long while. Many times, the broken stump could be replaced for free or at a nominal cost (esp. if some of the hardware is reusable).

 

To take pictures, one can get a regular point & shoot camera (or even use a phone) but professionals are likely to use high end cameras from brands such as Leica, etc.

The Anti Corruption Bureau Maharashtra should investigate this.

 

Someone has raised a false invoice of Rs 24 lakhs for the stumps which cost 20-30k and pocketed the rest.

could be 2 to 5 Lakh as there could be high resolution camera and some IOT device /sensors installed which has its costs. But definitely not more than 5 to 6 Lakhs.

 

if it is 24 Lakhs then I would want to investigate and deep dive in what was inside the wood of the wickets ??

A set of 6 stumps (+ 4 bails)  = 24-25 lakhs iirc

According to this article, 25 lakhs is the cost of a set of stumps at one end. i.e. 3

Also, remember that these stumps have to be manufactured to be precise. You can't really afford technology failures and also, due to the high cost, they need to be made specifically only for IPL and international tournaments. Hence, you cannot really offset the margin by casting a wider net and selling to end consumers. Regular cricket stumps can have lower margins as they are sold to the general public. 

 

Hence, with the precision required and the smaller market to sell, it is possible that they have a very high cost and the cost cannot simply be computed by adding all the core components that go into it.
