Its about Money Making ... Players, BCCI.
by kumar r on Apr 02, 2007 11:21 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

Remove BCCI, Handover Cricket to Govt of India. I feel Govt of India can do a better job than BCCI. Atleast players will get a feel that they are Govt servants and are playing for India. No ADs, No endorsements. Let the Govt collect all the revenue. Increase prize of Khel Ratna, Arjuna award. Give those awards to eligible players, use the other generated income for the welfare of the country. Why Is BCCI, a private body allowed to make money in the name of the country 'INDIA'. Help Doordarshan to bag contract out of the revenue collected. Let the Common man enjoy sport. Sport should be played to make a country proud, not just for entertainment and money.

The players who tell that its a honour playing for the country, will surely play under Govt of India.

Then the Cricket produced would be much more worse - Govt. shouldn't come into picture at all. Answer is Private participation!!

Why?? Isnt Govt of India representative are also behind money??
Such a huge money is involved in Indian cricket that it brings saliva on everybody's tounge, be it player, BCCI people or Govt Of India. The only way to stop this much money is cricket is to stop watching cricket.
Or there shud be some accounting of BCCI's money.

Its better you trust Govt than a private body. Govt is accountable to its people but a private body is not. You have the power to chg govts, but not a private body like BCCI.

I too agree Govt is corrupt. But, I feel its better than BCCI, where a dozen of people make money in the name of INDIA.

I should get back to your suggestion
"The only way to stop this much money is cricket is to stop watching cricket."

When the whole country is behind money [Govt/Private], Its not easy to change the Indian System.
