Mission Accomplished
by Mahesh on Apr 08, 2007 02:49 AM

Well after what the Board discussed over the past two days, the net result was the following:

1. Greg - achieved what he had set out for - to
destroy Indian cricket altogether. He proved
that he is a true Aussie in letter and spirit

2. Sachin - the normally quite one - gave into
provocation from Greg and blurted out - in
the process incurring the wrath of the BCCI -
and also lowering his already sinking image
still lower

3. Yuvraj - yet to find himself as a real top
notch player - shot his mouth off trying to
play spokesperson - is also at the
receiving end from the BCCI

4. The earnings have been curtailed and the
endorsements have been made fewer

5. The proxy selection at zonal levels will
also fade away soon

6. The biggest plus point of all this is the
enforcement of all Mai-Ka-Lals playing
domestic cricket too

7. A coach for each stream of activity - now
that was not expected - hope they did not
end up fighting with each other - in the
process of shaping the team

All this because the Board looked the other way when the matters were getting murkier and murkier in Indian cricket.

There was one sour note to the whole episode - sidelining former Indian Captains - Wadekar, Bedi and Azhar - only because some people did not see eye to eye with them. Now this from we can say that if the head is not right - the tail is defintely going to keep wagging.
