Karnataka boys have taken over

[SachDan]

wow, congrats to both of them. This is historic!

[Mamu]

I hope this is the beginning of many things to come in all State Boards where influential families with political ties have been ruling the roost. Most of them dumb f**ks who have no knowledge about cricket. What the f**k does the Maharaja of Mysore knows about cricket ?

[Sir john]

good :clap: zumbo srinath prasad

Brilliant news. Congrats to the trio. But the real challenge starts from here. Expectations from the trio will be sky high and people will expect nothing less than the best from these guys. There will be hurdles along the way but I am sure with their foresight and man management skills these three will be prove to be the pioneers of professionalism that in cricket administration in India needs so badly. Time for the jokers like Srinivasan , Shukla and Niru Mama to take notice and mend their ways of working and thinking else get ready to vacate the positions soon.

[Sir john]

mallya also support them.:hmmmm: according to CI.

[Lord]

hopefully he can get some spinners from there

[cowboysfan]

my only wish from jumbo is that he upgrade the chinnaswamy facilities(or better yet build a new stadium).

[The Dark Horse]

good news :)

[Guest Hiten.]

This is brilliant. Ex cricketers vying for top posts in their respective state board, can only help India as a cricketing nation develop. Enough of the dickheads like Pawars, Dalmiya's, Manohars :wall:

[Desi Cartman]

Prasad :yay:

Congrats to Jumbo and the other players! Hope some good comes out of this.

[gsivak]

Time for a few good men to take over. However, don't see massive change in set up elsewhere. Can't think of anyone in TN who can challenge Srini :((

[Andy]

Thats what i wanted, Now SG should contest CAB elections.

[Dinx - the Jinx]

Too many corrupt politicians and corrupt industrialists in Cricket Administrations, all other states should start electing ex-players too

What difference will/can they make?

Kudos to the three. As Dravid pointed out, these three are at a stage where they could opt for potentially far more lucrative career options. Someone like Kumble probably easily land a coaching/commentating job in most places in the world. But they chose to ignore that all and dirty their feet in the muddy waters of cricket administration. But you can pretty much be guaranteed that a guy like Kumble will come in and clean-house. Good times are ahead for Karnataka cricket!
