G_B_ Posted May 7, 2013 Posted May 7, 2013 yeah bhogle is laying in big time into Jarrod Kimber. quite a spar. I think its fair that players dont have a union in India. Ranji pay and all other types of pay have rapidly increased in Indian cricket way above inflation. Who would want to form a union in such a case>?
King Tendulkar Posted May 7, 2013 Posted May 7, 2013 Nice, keep these comms on BCCI payroll. Look after them etc etc Give them perks like promote them for roles in ICC. Ensures their cooperation while in comms box. No criticism but constant praise with microphone in hand. Pathetic
Zap_Brannigan Posted May 7, 2013 Posted May 7, 2013 The entire thing stinks. Let’s start with the process. So only a captain is allowed to vote. Who does the captain represent? Is it just his thoughts? Or the collective voice of his team or his board? If its the team, then did he talk to each and everyone of them? If it just his thoughts, then why is a captain of a cricket team on-field allowed to represent players off the field? FICA is raising a big issue about how BCCI exerted pressure on other boards but did the same with the Aus, Eng, SA captains. Only they call it lobbying. And about conflict of interest, I am not sure how a FICA head (which represents only 5 boards) deny having conflict of interest with a post that represents all 10 boards. If a situation arises that is good for Aus but bad for WI players, does he represent FICA or ICC? In this sense, a BCCI paid commentator is a much better choice commentary has nothing to do with his ICC job. Both parties are in the wrong. Only one is being a sour loser.

jalebi_bhai Posted May 7, 2013 Posted May 7, 2013 BCCI threatened boards for Sivaramakrishnan's ICC appointment: report :fear: :hysterical::hysterical::hysterical::hysterical::hysterical:.......Should've put a gold chain around his neck....
Crookbond Posted May 7, 2013 Posted May 7, 2013 And what does Srini/CSK have to do with this? :giggle: Srinivasan has everything to do with this, quite pathetic behavior by the BCCI. No doubt the other boards are also pussies but BCCI as a bully (in particular since the time headed by Srinivasan) can't be discounted.
Crookbond Posted May 7, 2013 Posted May 7, 2013 FICA call for ethics enquiry into May's ICC exit http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci-icc/content/current/story/634439.html "In light of media reports that five ICC full member boards applied direct pressure on their captains to amend their votes in the recent elections, FICA's official stance is that these allegations must warrant careful and independent scrutiny," Smith said. "Especially because we understand ICC specifically instructed the Boards not to interfere in the voting process. "The actions, allegedly instigated by BCCI, are a timely and stark reminder of the very serious shortcomings in governance at ICC highlighted more than a year ago by the Woolf Report and about which ICC has done nothing in the intervening period. "It is further apparent from statements made by unnamed ICC Board sources overnight that they are trying to position the involved Boards' actions as 'lobbying', but there should be a very clear distinction made between a candidate lobbying for a vote and an employer threatening an employee to change their vote."
