cricket

Dravid's decision to quit as captain is really surprising but what if the board accepts the resignation. The honorable president of the board should have also tendered his resignation and focus on his ministry and give charge to ex cricketers who can really bring talent and keep politics away from sport We should have a system similar to Autralia where the board is run by the professionals.In India it is like the film song it " happens only in India" that the board is having a commitee where there is no single cricketer of repute and it is more politically motivated.Its really shocking that instead of giving charge to ex cricketers our politicians are on the board and selection of the team in the name of the selectors look all humbug.Example is the selection of player like Agarkar who is still in the team inspite of underperformance.Our board should have professionals so that we can become number one country in cricket rankings like Australia.
