Lorgat Suspended, To Be Investigated by ICC http://www.espncricinfo.com/south-africa-v-india-2013-14/content/story/681123.html Seriously ? Shameful stuff from CSA and ICC, the latter which preaches against corruption now being openly and explicitly involved in it.

Disgusting news. BCCI have gone too far. Bringing down a man who was doing his job. CSA and ICC too spineless.

Lorgat Suspended, To Be Investigated by ICC BCCI is like Reliance, single handedly destroying all competition :hatsoff: All hail Srini don, the Dhirubhai of cricket :hail: Dhirubhai Dhirubhai avya Che, dhoom dhadaka Lavya Che :bigboss:

CI also has this news with much more detail. They will not do so unless thoroughly verified.

Everyone in the world knows that the ICC is a joke. C'mon it is no surprise. No body will go against the BCCI because of money. I wish CA could but they won't.

[King Tendulkar]

Only 2 tests And we bullied them in to suspending Logat. Pathetic We really are mafia now i.e anyone who questions BCCI or even tries to do right thing, will be blacklisted. Scaring anyone in ICC to do or say anything Bullies. Way over the top

they might as well fire Lorgat. or just pay him the money he was due as CEO of CSA and get a new one. He is basically dead as a CEO

[King Tendulkar]

Bloody hell what did lorgat do!!! You would think he turned down a date with his son in law or something

BCCI hated what he did as ICC head with DRS and the Woolf Report.

^ Yes I know. But he was just doing his job. OTT reaction. You dont black list someone cos have different view, thats not how things work in civilised world. No you can see why our comms have to tow the line:hysterical:

Getting the taste of his own medicine. He was anti-BCCI. BCCI is anti-Lorgat.:giggle:

The rest of the world he is doing his job but to the BCCI he was targeting them well I assume they saw it that way. That's why all the Australian jornos are just puzzled at the ICC for doing nothing. I mean they are as useless if not more than the UN.

To be frank, why would CSA even hire this guy? You know that the BCCI are bullies and quite frankly high on ego and power. What they should have done is hire two CEOs one for domestic CSA cricket and other for dealing with all international issues. Deutche bank did that with Anshu Jain (international) and Paul Achleitner (Germany domestic affairs) at that time. CSA also stupidly assumed that Srini would be toppled and they would have a clean slate with the new regime. While BCCI are wrong and maybe bullies CSA really have backed the wrong horse in their calculations. At the very least they should have held off hiring a CEO after the India tour or after the India elections of the BCCI. This provides a lesson for all posters in the politics of the office. Back the wrong horse and get ready for the payback. If you are right or not is another matter. Look at Ajay Shirke within the BCCI. Stepped down cause he thought a revolution was coming. that revolution never happened.
