Here is another twist in the tale that may jolt the Indian cricket once again. India has been out of the of the world cup and the BCCI is busy searching for the cause of the Team India’s defeat in West Indies. Everybody is busy criticizing the Team India’s performance in the world cup.
Now, a Union minister and the president of Bihar Cricket Association (BCA), Lalu prasad has another ‘raga’ on this defeat. During his political campaign, he demanded a CBI probe into India-Bangladesh World Cup group match that was played on March 17. In this match, India had lost a crucial group match against Bangladesh and lost the hope to qualify in the super eight round.
Lalu has clearly told to media and people gathered in Lucknow that he has some specific information that bookies had at stake of Rs 6000 crore in the India-Bangladesh match. Lalu’s statement may add fuel to fire as the BCCI and Indian Cricket is going through a tough phase.
The coach has been resigned and board is searching for new captain. People are asking to establish more qualitative domestic play structure in the country to produce more competitive players.
Lalu said further that the Indian cricket administration requires a complete overhaul and a high level probe should be ordered in the irregularities. He also blamed the members of team India for lacking team spirit and the flawed selection procedure as the main reason behind the world cup debacle.
He said:
Why only Greg, sack the entire team. Maharastra, West Bengal and Karnataka lobbies have dominated the BCCI. The system needs a serious look-in is need of the hour.
The regional protests over non-inclusion of their players did not promise well as far as growth of cricket in the country was concerned.
He further said on the non-registration of BCA in BCCI:
I think the BCCI fear that my entry would demolish their caucus and would be detrimental to their ulterior motives and designs.
