Why? You want to make them relevant? Dont you think they are irrelevant if one goes by the logic of 1 man = 1 vote? Dont these noble souls yak endlessly about democracy? Lets have it, 1 man = 1 vote, 1 cricket lover = 1 vote. Fck the goras using their own principles, why are you so scared of that? Or do you somehow want to believe that 1 country = 1 vote. If so, why not Nepal or Malaysia or Bhutan or Afghanistan or Maldives. Is nt that the aim of the ICC? To propagate the game across the world? Or do you want to watch silently like what happened to hickey -- taken over by the goras? If Canada and NZ can regularly play the highest level of hickey (the WC) and vote at FIH meetings, why cant Nepal play the WC in crikkit and be a part of the bloc that has power to vote?

I agree with Stan!! I think that Dawood has reached the next level with ICC now and thus we have all these stupid rules like DRS along with Dawood paying to the groundsmen to prepare glass pitches so that minnos can score runs. Dawood has picked the side to be with Whites while Desis are confused as ever since the times after RamRajya.

Watch out Ireland defeating India in next game! (if not then Ireland qualifying to at least semi finals and defeating pakis or somebody else). DAWOOD is back with revenge with his bollywood friends (DRS camera angles and Tikla Bhai of Bombay as third umpire).

I think India should play Nehra and Chawla in the upcoming match against Ireland, if they fail against the Minnows, they should not be considered for the QF, SF and F

Geez, you couldn't sense the sarcasm in it, it seems. The issue is, why are you not, even for a moment, capable of looking beyond the inane and imagined vote bank politics? If it does exist, our super-duper agri minister is party to it. No other board has abused its influence in world cricket as the BCCI has. Your prejudice reminds of the same CRams-esque logic that you were accusing somebody else of.

SBjawa,

You talk of UDRS as if it benefits only the whites. And what do you think of that impudent and babarous ban threat we got issued by the ICC against players wanting to play for ICL? Did ICL erode the players' talent or their faith towards their country anymore than IPL is? Lets accept it, BCCI is no messiah!

And who the eff is the Dawood you're referring to?

May be Pakis were asking Canadian visas from Canadians and they misunderstood for the Pavilion visa.

So if Kanada by the grace of Allah wins, would the Paki fans demanding investigation against Aussie,SL and English teams demand investigation against there own..
Hope I didn't jinx Kanada by hoping against hope.

Canadians getting kanada vijja with spin. Canadian pitches don't spin?

Typical paki fashion, umar batti-gul is showing his mardanagi to a Canadian no. 10 batsman! when faced with real men, umar's batti goes gul. I still remember with lolz when he couldn't hit empty stumps in T20 WC 2007 tie breaker.

Your prejudice reminds of the same CRams-esque logic that you were accusing somebody else of.

The problem as i see is: I love crikkit, more than I love the machinations of my crikkit board or the choo*** of people involved with my team. Get over it, if you are such a crikkit lover, you will always find a reason to do an == with everything. As MacArthur said in his famous movie, "You want the poor sucker dying for his country, not you dying for yours." It is NOT ok if others cheat the system, it is par for the course if the bcci gets away with it. Unfortunately, if you do a ==, you are exactly one of those seemingly neutral cricinfo commentators without a practical realization that men are NEVER born honest, they just act honest if the situation demands.

Ok, let me tell you a personal anecdote. Crikkit is a game full of money. Long gone is the generation that flocked to running the game out of pure love. If you take a look at the board composition, 99% of em would be industrialists. That is like taking moth to a flame. If you want to know, this moth to a flame behavior started pre-47. For example, the Madras Cricket Association started pulling in industrialists around 1940. The Association itself was started around 32-33, right around the inception of Ranji trophy. For the first 2-3 years, I know of a family member (who was a poor sucker btw) who ended up being the Secretary of the MCA (which is now the TNCA). I can still see his name in the TNCA webpage. Point being, he and his generation have been out-evolved. There is no time and sanity in this world for such (sorry to say this) idiots. The moment you bring in ==, neutrality, love of the game, etc. to something that is inherently capitalistic, inherently dishonest, inherently politics, you make the same ignoramus mistake of not knowing how the world works and going by this egalitarian, ideological bullshit. Life is not fair, that is a fact. Running a game means you have to be a choo****, that is a fact.

And crikkit in India is an ecosystem. If the game does nt run in India, there will be 1000s of people going hungry because there is no trickle-down economics. And India has more such people who need uplifting than anywhere else. So sorry to say this, fck your neutrality. I want the bcci to fck everyone else. And India to fck everyone else, not pull an == neutral bullshit that is ideological rubbish. Welcome to the real world, that should have been the first computer program that people wrote, instead they write rubbish.

language aside, agree with the sentiment in-toto. those who want to display generosity of spirit and prudish behaviour should do it in their personal capacity. a person being 'generous' with the fortunes of others whose responsibility have been thrust upon him is a scoundrel.

SaiK · Post by **SaiK** » 03 Mar 2011 21:45

The Canadians couldn't damn those afraid-eee-b@lls. mmm.. they came very close, and need more discipline in swinging their bats, and choosing the right delivery to hit. Well, we have weirder players than they have, so I should shut up there.

Stan, wassup budy? take it easy man. sometimes ignoring high acoustimasses or redirected resonance can solve both your ego and the confrontational kind. Perhaps challenge yourself on a yoga timeout would be something I can think off. Increasing productivity is not under rakshaks control. Sometimes, those fingers type the words can mutate and go beyond reasoning in the heat of the moment. Diversion for sometime can help for many BRite minds, especially those with higher IQ levels. /jmt

The PCB is behaving like a rabid dog demanding that every other match be investigated by the ICC.
Heard this from a very highly placed fish&chips waala. A lot of UK based PaKroaches were betting heavily on Pakistan scoring less than 200
