I felt like an ancient Roman, watching the gladiators fought for their lives at The Colosseum. I’m no visionary of the past, rather the soar history is getting repeated in front of us at the ICL 20/20 cup matches. I really felt pity for these young gladiators from India, who are really fighting for fulfilling the dreams of their lives, to get the recognition in international arena. But the strange reality is, their efforts and dreams may go in vain due the rivalry between the  ICL organizers and the so called the apex body which controls the cricket in India-the BCCI.

The foremost aim of the ICL is to give opportunities for the young talents from all corners of India, to display their talents to get selected in the National team. Till then the selection process adopted by BCCI was so biased, that got reflected during the world cup performance of the “Men in Blue”. The BCCI wants to crush ICL, and they developed a parallel league IPL and try to bully and display their supremacy, by pumping in unaccounted wealth. The worst part is, they refrained ICL talents to join the national team, and also influencing other cricket boards to do the same to their players, who are participating in ICL matches.

” What is the recognition BCCI is having as an apex body taking responsibilities of cricket in India?”

” Why Indian Government’s State for sports is not taking control of the Cricket in India?”

These are questions remain a mystery to the fans of the sport. It is quite evident, that the BCCI is managed by politicians and hypocrites,who don’t have any relation with the sport, playing the dirty tricks in so called gentlemen sport, as they consider cricket as a source of wealth, outside politics. It’s high time for us – the fellow indian cricket fanatics to stop enjoying like an enthusiastic audience of ancient Rome, encouraging the gladiatorial brutal barbarity, rather raise concerns and let the Indian Government dissolve BCCI and be the authority of the sport. Otherwise the dreams of these young talented buds will be fired down.

Note: I don’t say that the current national team members are not talented, rather trying to raise my voice, as a true sport lover who wish to have an unbiased National team, irrespective of linguistic, political and cultural barrier.
