Why couldn't they make an example out of Pandya?

 

I agree. Pandya is the most fraud cricketer... he hardly plays for India gets injured and then plays in the IPL. BCCI wont touch him as he has has the biggest IPL lobby behind him and he is their poster boy.

 

He should be the first to be kicked out

Players should focus on IPL. Everything else is secondary.... and mickey mouse tournies like Ranji are not even on the radar.

 

IPL needs to become its own independent organization and the owners should keep the BCCI mittens out of the IPL revenue cookie jar.

Will KL also be forced to play domestic cricket to make comeback to Indian team ?

Let's see how many senior players play the domestic tournaments after one month of layoffs from intl cricket.

This is just pure dramabaazi by BCCI.

Dravid wanted to kill competition for KL for WT20 so he got rid of Ishan by forcing a condition that he should play blah blah tournament and then it seems him and his buddies Laxman, Dada etc got in the ears of joker Jay Shah. Now only Jitesh is left who doesn't have any following so he will be sidelined easily.

What do you mean by "following"? All that should matter is T20 performances should it not? The IPL is right around the corner.....

What "should" matter and what "actually" matters are poles apart in Indian cricket.

Indian players have retired from ODIs and T20is before tests. Has any Indian retired from tests first? Obviously not counting those ODI and T20 players who were not good enough to play tests.

We got this answer in Jan only, when Ind team returned from SA test series, Shreyas Iyer was asked to play Ranji match before England series started but KL did not play Ranji match and there was no mention of any injury during that time as KL played the first test match.

Interesting you say that, probably something down the line in 10 years or so for sure.

Unfortunately the power of business owners are taking over cricket forever, BCCI and others can try but its too late to stop them.

 

Today Pollard left his PSL team to attend the wedding of Ambani's son. This kind of power cannot be stopped. 

 

The IPL owners are also now investing in other leagues and will even invest in county crickets. Players will always choose IPL over anything going forward and those plyers in good books of powerful owners will always have power, we saw the Srini/Dhoni combo, we will have Pandya/Ambani etc, soon These are more true for teams owned by Indian businessmen, for eg RCB owner company is richer then Ambanis, yet they wont interfere in Indian cricket. Indian owners are like kings and reward those who are loyal to them.
