The BCCI Monopoly!!
Reading an article yesterday made me think. ICC has said it has a stance on ‘unauthorized’ cricket. BCCI has barred players from playing in the ICL. And all along I was under the impression that BCCI (and ICC for that matter) were there to develop the game. So what is unauthorized cricket??
Why is Ranji Trophy, County Cricket all authorized and why is ICL not?? Just because it is run and organized by people who are not part of BCCI, Or is it because if they allow these ‘unauthorized’ tournaments they will loose out from the multi-billion dollar market of the Indian Cricket.
In the name of developing the game, BCCI has the monopolized the business of cricket. The self-proclaimed authorities of cricket have deemed anything that does not link to them but has revenues as unauthorised. Galli Cricket is not unauthorised, but wide scaled and organised tournaments are!!
Is it just me, that feels this is monopoly and unwarrant abuse of powers (both muscle and money) or it just does not get into me??
Sometimes I just get sick of the way people distort facts, cook reasons, just to make there point!!No matter how invalid it may be!!
