BCCI's misplaced priorities & a lost opportunity
by Bhavesh Shah on Jan 09, 2008 12:28 AM

I feel that by agreeing to having the tour go forward after the sacking of Bucknor, the BCCI is sending the wrong signal out about its priorities on this matter. For me, the bigger issues were the Aussie behavior on & off the field & Harbhajan's ban - both of which were deliberate actions designed to humiliate the Indian team. Bucknor on the other hand was a case of sheer incompetence. While he deserved to be sacked, I think that the perception now will be that all that the BCCI really was after was to get Bucknor sacked because they somehow blame him for their defeat. This was a great opportunity to make the Aussies pay for their behavior, instead we have let them off the hook again.
Prem - would love to get your take on this.
