Today after the world cup debacle, the team is being blamed. Rightly so. But why is there no questions raised against the people running the BCCI ? These are the real culprits for the downfall of cricket in our country today. It may be noted that today most of the BCCI members are politicians. President Sharad Pawar and the Vice Precident Dayanand Narvekar. How much cricket do they know ? And what are they doing there ? BTW is the BCCI not an office of Profit ? The vice president is being openly talking against the team, which I also beleive is against the BCCI code of conduct. It suggests that the senior players ask their conciousness and retire. Very funny. I pose the same question to Mr. Narvekar. Why don't they ask their conciousness first. We have people who cannot walk and talk on top posts. Would they like to retire from politics ? Would the Australian player dare pushed Dalmiya. Guys these are the serious questions that need to be answered first. Let BCCI be a proper corporate body and it will perform. But unfortunately, this looks like far from happening. Until then wait and watch till India wins again :)

I strongly feel this is the right (high) time for:-
#1 Take over all the Sports including BCCI & hand it over to a Private Partner(s) to develop more (more Results, money would come on it's own!).
#2 Mandatory participation is needed right from the School level.
#3 Benefits of the Sports should be taught to the people (importantly, parents) by media. Good performance in sports does help the nation's image & pride!
#4 Minimum financial guarantees should be provided for the retired players (many sports persons suffer due to this!)
