IPL is a total nonense.It will destroy the true spitit of the game.We all Indians should come forward and see to it that IPL is a total failure.This step will be good for Cricket and Indian sports.Otherwise all the major events will be influenced by Bollywood and Our Corrupt and spoilt politicians.I am sure our great Prime Minister Mr Manmohan Singh will also agrre to this

fully agree with Kishore....this game is now being infused with so much of moeny and glamour that it will impair the total game...at least test cricket wud go into testicles...
"how many bums are on seats" If he had really blurted those words, then by watching IPL we are really proving George Bernard Shaw right. U know the one about 11 fools playing and 11,000 fools watching...

I don't think there was anything wrong in his quote. He didn't mean any disrespect to the people, and just casually used the brit synonym.

its true that there should be people who have played cricket at international level running this kind of tournament. otherwise they should be atleast part of it indirectly
what Bindra actually saying is we will armtwist the boards for releasing the players, we will pressurise respective cricket boards to adjust their timetable with IPL as a priority, we will screw PCB also allow shoeb akhtar to play. WE will make pots of money from IPL and distribute to you , so release the playes, lets make hey while sun is shining!
Ultimately Indian cricket and players will be controlled by drug, media dons and underworld mafias through khans, zintas and many other vagabonds. The Indian facilitator of mafias is heading the BCCI now and no wonder it is happening at supersonic speed.

Right Politics. Outspoken is correct it is not any bias against anybody, rather SRK and Zintas r the most vocal for IPL publicity, thats why they hv been targeted. Ultimately, the issue is IPL will kill ckt with the help of money just like the way fixing saga stripped excitement off ckt matches.

Good, buddy. U R True reprentive of ur culture. keep it up this good language of ur mother tongue.
Saurashtra has won the Vijay Hazare trophy, one-day version of ranji trophy this year. This is done with another achievement of reaching the ranji semis this year. They r the emerging team of the year. Cheteshwar Pujara (man of the series during the previous junior wc), Ravi Jadeja (hero of the current junior wc team), Rakesh Dhruv, Odedara, Jaydev Shah r heros of the team alongwith veteran Sitanshu Kotak. Why bcci is not selecting any player from Saurashtra? Is it due to biased selection by Vengsarkar?
