Why Blame Cricketers
by Balagopal Ramamohan on Apr 02, 2007 04:47 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

Cricket may be a national Obsession.

But After all it is a sport.The Game and the players are independent.If we start blaming cricketers instead of the BCCI who (i.e the BCCI)claims they are (BCCI are)demigods,it is very unfortunate.
Dravid is a gentleman and he along with his team ,provided to him by BCCI has done max.job.

It is a BCCI TEAM and not to be refferred to as Indian Team.

They are being paid for winning the matches, not for loosing them. I think the Indian Team (especially 11 payers who were on field) are fully responsible for India%u2019s exit from world cup. If I don%u2019t do my job, doesn%u2019t show results at work and still ask for salary, my boss will kick me out. I understand that cricketer%u2019s job involve high visibility, pressure and expectations of the crowd because they represent the country, but this is already known to them and that%u2019s why they have been selected. But these guys do not bother about anything as they have multiple source of income.
