It was the BCCI meeting that every1 was looking forward to.... but as anticipated no major changes have been brought about. Strangely, the players endorsements have been kept a watch which is madness. If BCCI can earn, y not the team members ??? Taking the permission for endorsing sounds pointless. With the players contracts being scrapped, it'd be innteresting to see how the players would respond to this, as there is no more grade system. If a players plays well, he paid on par with any other senior player who plays well....oops not "on par", but equal.
Ravi Shastri has been made the team manager for the Bangladesh's tour and the team will not have a coach. But we do have a bowling coach in the guise of Venkatesh Prasad, who has coached the U-19 cricket team and the fielding coach as Robin Singh.

Indian cricket in a soup!!!
It was doom's day for Indian cricket, the moment they lost to Sri Lanka in the league matches in World Cup 2007. Utter disappointment was visible on all the faces of senior Indian cricketers. Back home at India, the supporters were shocked to see a dismal performance by the team. It all started with vision 2007 when the Aussie great Greg Chappel took upon the job of coaching the Indian cricket team. They'r many contenders for that position as Indian cricket board is the richest in the world. So Chappel was more than happy to bag it. Vision 2007 in an abstract view was to win the world cup. This propagated many changes in the Indian team. Youngsters were roped to perform and poor Pathan was the sufferer in the hands of Chappel.
Things drastically changed for India after Chappel took over the captaincy. They were high expectations among the public with the world cup in mind. The D-day however arrived and the Indians lost their first match to Bangladesh, a minnow, comprehensively. All the drama surrounding the vision was a damp by now, as there was no co-ordination among the players. The next match was with an other minnow Bermuda, like wounded tigers, the capable Indian team bounced back and amassed a huge score which saw them home. After this, the crucial match was against the SriLankans, which was a must win match for the Indians. But to every1's sureprise, the Indian team proved chokers. INDIA OUT OF THE WORLD CUP.
Back home at India, the public started their agitation towards the senior players who didnt perform well. They were allegations that the players were more interested in their endorsements to circket which caused the downfall. Things started getting out of control when the board was to answer for the world cup debacle. A report is awaited from the board now. Lets hope some senior players are dropped and the youngsters are given a chance to prove their mettle. We'r a country of billion population, but still the board is not able to get that perfect eleven for the nations most loved sport.
