The happenings post the world cup exit reveal what was so obvious a long time ago but no one wanted to see or ack it..Its a all about momey. The new committe of the BCCI on taking overspoke only of the momey they would generate...The players generate more money in sponsership than in playing fees.It is only natural that the sponsors ensure that the players they are intrested in remain in the team.How ?.Obviously money. The time is right to do some house cleaning now.The reght place to start is the BCCI..its selection procedure..ways of functioning and accountablity.Next is the selection committe.This regional quota system has proved to be counterproductive.We need to get proffessional and a bit more scientific.The committe should be transparent and accountable to the nation.next are the players..This aspect needs most attention..we need a well designed,fair code of conduct.All sponsership should be routed thrugh the BCCI.Selestion of players should be done based on their rating..rating based on their preformance which is updated every month.This with a lot of transparancy and accountablity. The rating should be printed on a nominated day of a month.The coach (who ever he be )needs to be enpowered more..to the extent that he has auth to send back a player mid tour in case he is not being a team person or playig well.Senior players should be given their due ... just their due not more, not less.A clear mandate of their auth should be laid down.
Let us not go into mourning over what is happening ..lets be ve and use this oppurtunity to do some heart searching and learn by our past mistakes.We must be honest in our efforts to improve the system.
