apocalypse Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 Time to bump this thread!! You may have been right on the money Kabira. Just like 1983 BCCI has awarded the players in the semi finals itself(of course back then it was lot less than 1 million). So keep your fingers crossed gents, Kabira might be onto something here. xxx what was the reward? Link to comment

Lurker Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 what was the reward? Oh back then in 1983 WC it was a Rs 25,000 bonus for each team members..sounds pretty much a pittance now, does it not Apo? Link to comment
apocalypse Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 25k was of great value during that time Link to comment
kabira Posted September 24, 2007 Author Share Posted September 24, 2007 >so kabira did you danced like sreesanth? its diwali time here...fire crackers in middle of drizzle...I can still hear fire works... Link to comment
apocalypse Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 yeah I will be in India to celebrate Diwali Link to comment
Lurker Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 25k was of great value during that time Yes it was. But compare it to 1 crore that Yuvraj received today!!! 10,000,000/25,000 ~ 400 times that number! And thats within 2 decades or so. Tells you how cricket has taken off in India. Link to comment
apocalypse Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 yeah and considering the fact also that BCCI is the richest sporting body in this world Link to comment
