BCCI’s Arrogance and Greed responsible for IPL Postponement!

[Ahmad-GERMANFC]

What was the reason for such inflexibility? Devi was the epicenter of the world yet they went ahead with the games in that city. Only a group of people blinded by their own arrogance can take such a tone deaf and idiotic step

Most probably just the greed not sure if arrogance will have anything to do with it. They were most probably fooled too by the Indian government along with the rest of Indians who were arguing here that corona virus was completely controlled in India and allowing crowds without masks etc in England series was completely okay.

 

[Savak]

Lol at arrogance and greed, it was their delusion that they could continue to flaunt their wealth globally to the entire world and that their unlimited money supply was the answer to everything

No it’s arrogance when you think you are immune from an airborne virus in the epicenter of the world

BCCI and it’s cheerleaders like [MENTION=152021]Rajdeep[/MENTION] and [MENTION=131701]Mamoon[/MENTION] deserve this humiliation

 

[big_gamer007]

Greed and incompetence in general by both GOI and BCCI.

As I said they were just all fooled by the Indian government over the years the Indian government has become very good at bending the media to their desired narrative etc and that has been reflected by the Indian posters here. Indian poster were criticizing me when i objected to crowds being allowed in England series.

 

[Ahmad-GERMANFC]

I hope a certain poster learns humility

LOL...even if World war 3 starts, IPL will still go ahead as per schedule. Some things in life is just too important to postpone/cancel and IPL is one of them. WT20 later this year can get cancelled though if Covid situation dont improve in India by then.

IPL will happen even if a nuke was dropped on delhi!!

Again, I want to retiterate - if anyone thinks IPL is just a domestic t20 league is highly mistaken. Its one of the most important cricket tournament, if not the most cricket tournament, in a cricket calendar. There is a reason why a seperate window is given to IPL because ICC knows there is only 1 winner in a straight fight between ICC & IPL.

You think likes of Ganguly or BCCI or players dont realize the risk of organizing a tournament in the peak of pandemic? If this was an international series, it would have been cancelled long time ago. But the stakes in IPL is just too high for it to cancel. Is it a correct thing to do? Perhaps not. But it is as it is unfortunately.

So it dosen't matter if NZ bans travel from India or WTC Finals gets cancelled or earth stops spinning...IPL will go ahead as per schedule

Not sure why this thread gets bumped everytime. As I said before, even if there is a world war 3 starts tomorrow, IPL will go ahead as planned. No amount of mental gymnastic can stop it bcoz its just far too important an event to cancel. If this was an international series, it would have been cancelled long ago and we wont even be talking about it. We may see the T20 WC getting cancelled later this year if the pandemic situation dont increase. But IPL cant & wont be cancelled. Its happening now as per schedule and it will happen again in Apr 2022 as per schedule. Adding any achronym or adjective like Circus, Tamasha league etc are good coping mechanisms but wont change the reality.

 

[Ahmad-GERMANFC]

IPL was suspended because it was becoming impossible for them schedule matches as players getting infected.

Not because of sensitivity towards pathetic covid situation in India.

 

[IMMY69]

What happened about western media being agenda driven and how reporting was false???
Remember that little gem?

 

[Technics 1210]

It is arrogance, and you only have to read the comments by Modi apologists on this forum to see why.

India was moseying along believing they could circumvent the covid storm with money, but instead decided to prop up their global image with hot air and promises - well, that bubble has well and truly burst.

It will take over 10 years to vaccinate 70%+ Indians - this story has many chapters in the pipeline.

The West is desperate to keep the fascist tinpot regime in power so they can get their China counterweight no matter the cost. They just didnt plan for Covid and as usual ignore the Higher power. If things continue the way they are we have to be very very concerned for the central govt in India and whether it will continue in its current form by the time this pandemic is over. Also will other states embargo travel to and fro? what about tourism and sports events? India wants to export its culture and over the last 15 years has done pretty well hoodwinking the world into thinking its all rosy and colourful. Will that continue?

My prediction is the west will continue to prop it up no matter what..the project cant fail..

 

[Amjad007]

In the end bcci was exposed as greedy , untrustworthy and lying . And hiding numbers of infected players. Next few days we will hear of more infected players .

Egg on face of bcci and goi

And a few months ago they were thumping their chests saying they are saving humanity by supplying the whole world with vaccines. Western researched vaccines .

It was lie. They only did it to make money and get foreign exchange reserves. Vaccine rates in Indus are 5%. You are right it will take 15 years off to vaccinate India. Better not play cricket there for 15 years. Lol

I think the cat is out the bag, and judging by how the UK broadsheets have been reporting on Modi's failure, and BJP's recent loss in local elections, I can't see BJP in power at next GE in India. Certainly the perception of India has changed based on user comments on articles.

West will continue to prop up India for sure (UK just signed a free trade with India albeit worth 1B) but I also believe the West is hoodwinking India when the end game is China for the west, but I don't think the West will be dealing with Modi for very long.

 

[Saj]

I think any sane individuals should learn from the PSL and the IPL fiascos and realise that holding any tournaments at such a time is a huge risk.

Differing reasons for both tournaments being postponed, but definitely a wake-up call for both Boards and organisers, players, officials etc.

 

[iniqbal223]

Conducting IPL during this time was itself a farce... There were media reports that suggested IPL must be suspended 2 weeks back, and GOI left it to BCCI to decide; some media houses even stopped covering IPL, but BCCI thought its too powerful..

 

[UzmanBeast]

Agreed, this is an eye-opener that even the PSL should be reconsidered given the current COVID-19 situation in Pakistan.

Fortunately, no players suffered greatly from the virus so far, and that is always good to hear.

Hopefully these players can return to their home countries and stay there.

I seriously doubt a T20 World Cup is going to happen this year.

This is much worse. More foreign players. Continue promises even after seeing what happened at PSL. Have a rampant variant in the country. Lack of oxygen and resources in country and they ate it up.

This is so much worse. Not even on scale of PSL. This is embarrassing. Ganguly likely needs to resign. This will forever be a black mark. Money over health. #IPhaiL

[MP2011]

Everyone except for BCCI and dictator's apologists cared for IPL to go ahead.

In any case, we had last IPL 6 months back. Why was it necessary to hold another IPL within 6 months and that too in current harrowing times?

 

[MP2011]

Another glowing example of feku's
gross incompetence after Kumbh and assembly elections.

 

[PakLFC]

Not arrogance but greed. Money not the safety of the players is the priority of the BCCI even when they are already loaded.

 

[Caved12]

A third world country will always be a third world country no matter how rich they get. Arrogance and greed are very small words to use for BCCI.

 

[Rajdeep]

Think its unfair to blame BCCI. IPL started on 9th April with preperation being made atleast couple of weeks prior. At that time the covid situation in India was not as grim as it is now. Hence BCCI decided to host it in India and expected it will run smoothly like the England series. If it was scheduled to start now, they would have surely hosted it in UAE. If anything credit must be given to BCCI for the way they run the tournament seamlessly for close to a month with everything that going on in the outside world. Dont think any sporting body can be this much efficient. But rhe situation is so bad now that its impossible even for mighty BCCI to continue with it. Also there are some reports that central govt has pulled the plug, so thats pretty much sealed the fate of IPL. I think the remaining games will be scheduled in Dubai just prior to the T20 WC. BCCI will do everything in its power to cover the 2000cr loss, thats for sure.

It doesn't matter which was worse, IPL or PSL - both were called off and have caused embarrassment for both Boards.

As I said, harsh lessons learnt for both Boards and I am sure other Boards will be looking at the 2 tournaments and seeing how not to do things during the pandemic.

 

[Junaids]

Desperation by a financially insolvent BCCI which has huge income but chronically over-spends.

Their economic extravagance makes them dependent on their income stream and on ICC welfare payments.

Ultimately the BCCI couldn’t pay their bills if they cancelled the IPL so they ploughed on with it out of economic desperation.

It may look like power and arrogance but this year’s IPL was all about BCCI weakness and insolvency.

Same reason why Real Madrid and Barcelona are the last two clubs persisting with the European Super League.

They know they haven’t got the economic solvency to buy Haaland or Mbappé. They earn a lot but they spend too much, so they need a Super League to ensure even more of the money flows to them. Without it they can’t afford to outbid Sheffield United or Aston Villa.

That’s why the BCCI endlessly tries to secure ever larger ICC welfare payments so they can balance their books.

It’s almost unimaginable that their income is so huge, but they couldn’t afford to postpone the IPL until they had no choice.

Players in the IPL are loaded anyway being much wealthier then Pak players. Imagine thousands of people dying in Delhi with Cricket matches being played in the middle. It is beyond selfishness to say the least. Anyone including Indian people who suggested for the tournament to be called off was accused of most ridiculous things. Now compare this to the Man Utd-Liverpool match called off some days back just because 200 people had caused some shenanigans tells us how stupid the BCCI are.

By the way india make a bigger loss than Pakistan if India and Pakistan don’t play. So it’s acceptable to me not playing india . We will loose maybe $20 million . India will lose $100 million .

Will you consider England series as a super spreader series just like Bengal election and kumbh Mela. Gujrat state is struggling alot in 2nd wave of covid.

[Snowflake]

It was a high risk high reward approach by the BCCI and they ended up on the wrong end of it.

Problem with India is that it is a country which is obsessed about its global image. It would go to any length to protect and also create an image of itself that is not even close to reality. That is the reason why you would hear Indians make such a hue and cry whenever the international media highlights anything that does not show them in a good light. Examples include, Abhinandan incident when the Indian media was up in arms as to why international media outlets were touting pakistan's version of the events, or the recent coverage of COVID where many, including a poster here, were insinuating that the international reporting is a conspiracy against India and things aren't as bad as they are shown to be.

Just like that, IPL was meant to prove a point to the international community that India is safe to conduct a high profile cricketing event; disregarding the ground realities.

India needs to stop obsessing about how other people perceive their country and should be a little introspective.

I wanted IPL to be postponed two weeks ago, and I am not part of BCCI/IPL administration. I don’t see how this is embarrassing for me.

The only thing I find embarrassing is the kick Pakistani fans are getting out of this. They feel relieved because their sole interest was to see IPL sabotaged.

They couldn’t care less about the well-being of the Indian public and the well-being of the players.

All those fake tears are to divert attention from the fact that their only interest was to see IPL disrupted.

I can understand the jealously though. IPL has become bigger than Pakistan cricket itself without contribution from any Pakistani cricketer.

It is the biggest cricket carnival in the world that Pakistani players watch from the sidelines and absolutely no one is bothered about their exclusion.

Our players would publicly lament their exclusion from IPL until PCB came up with a low budget, cheap imitation called PSL, and the tragedy is that Pakistani players today would have a happily trade their PSL contracts for IPL contracts if they were given a choice.

Keeping all that in mind, I understand why we are jealous, but having said that, it won’t hurt us if we could at least pretend to be nonchalant about it.

Overspends on what?

 

[Colorblind Genius]

2000 crore (INR).

Some experts say it’s 3000 crore INR.
But I think that should be petty change for BCCI, no?

What’s the biggie here? It’s only 3000 crore INR.

Folks at BCCI must shrugging it off as a drop in the ocean.

 

[Junaids]

Overspends on what?

It’s all in the BCCI published annual report.

Most of their money is disbursed opaquely to the state cricket associations, with no requirement that any expenditure be itemised. In effect, it allows the people running those associations to live like kings, and ensures their loyalty.

That’s the thing about the BCCI. Most of their money is squandered on buying off domestic support, and they live from welfare paycheck to IPL payday because they waste almost all their income.

You really are a sad individual and a pathetic excuse for a human . You really need your head testing.

You constantly talk about jealousy. We don’t give a flying F about that sham fixed league called ipl. The only person who is jealous here is you. You are jealous of Pakistan as a country , you are jealous of Pakistan cricket , your are jealous of Pakistan players (esp of babar azam) and you are jealous every time Pakistan wins. That’s a fact and everyone knows it on here. You know it yourself but can’t admit it ..

You say we don’t care about Indians dying. Yes you are right. Why should we ? They are not our problem.
If the Indian government was not so incompetent and corrupt then 100000 people would be not dying everyday. Holding superspreader events at kumb mela , election rallies and countless matches at that so called modi stadium with massless fans was the reason india became a huge cremation ground. It was all self inflicted. So why should we care ? They can’t even provide oxygen and people are dropping dead on streets like flies . This disaster have been accentuated by modi and his cohort. People voted for him and now the chicken has come home to roost .

Thank god in Pakistan we don’t have the same numbers of infections and devastation as next door. I’m sure you are upset about that too.

Ipl was a monstrosity , and a sham. Music being blasted inside empty stadiums whilst smoke from burning bodies was billowing into the ground.

Indian parallel universe league been finally put out of its misery. Lol . Finally foreign players can escape . Lol

Time for some reflection Mamoon. Just replace IPL with PSL and you’ve described your own behaviour. It’s a multi step process to find inner peace, you’re on step 1 but you’ll get there soon.

 

[Amjad007]

He’s incapable of rational thinking. So I won’t hold my breath if I were you mate.

 

[Savak]

Karma. I would replace the title and add the arrogance of the Indian Cricket fans at large

 

[Savak]

You should make this your signature, so that you do not have to copy paste this high fantasy in every thread.

You are calling someone out on copy pasting? Is mehngai in Pakistan so high that you can't afford a mirror?

I wanted IPL to be postponed two weeks ago, and I am not part of BCCI/IPL administration. I don’t see how this is embarrassing for me.

The only thing I find embarrassing is the kick Pakistani fans are getting out of this. They feel relieved because their sole interest was to see IPL sabotaged.

They couldn’t care less about the well-being of the Indian public and the well-being of the players.

All those fake tears are to divert attention from the fact that their only interest was to see IPL disrupted.

I can understand the jealously though. IPL has become bigger than Pakistan cricket itself without contribution from any Pakistani cricketer.

It is the biggest cricket carnival in the world that Pakistani players watch from the sidelines and absolutely no one is bothered about their exclusion.

Oh the blatant desperation. Tch Tch Tch Tch Tch Tch.

You keep mentioning psl being a cheap imitation . Psl is the 2nd biggest t20 league in the world based on viewership and soon resources. The only reason why ipl is the biggest league is because india has a massive population of 1.3 billion people . If our population was even 1 billion , we would wipe the floor with the ipl. It’s just their population. And you know it. I never hear you calling BB, vitality 20/20 a cheap imitation. Psl being the 2nd biggest t20 competition is hard for you to digest. And calling it a cheap imitation is just sour grapes


Ipl is a grotesque spectacle and a monstrosity .

Great day for cricket and humanity today. &#55357;&#56837;&#55357;&#56837;&#55357;&#56834;&#55358;&#56611;

They are probably one and the same person. Bjp spokesperson mamoon aka Joshilla trying to change the narrative by dragging psl into the conversation . Desperate futile attempts to malign psl and Pakistan players. We see right through his ametureish attempts lol &#55357;&#56834;

The tears we are shedding today in and the faces of Mamoon and Joshilla are enough to solve Pakistan's water problems

See the issue is that you do not utter a single word of criticism towards India and BCCI who were wrong all the way in handling of the IPL. This is what gives the true impression of being biased. Instead you shift the discussion towards jealousy and what not.

Joshila let us know you are safe and well in Ahmedabad mate !

 

[Amjad007]

Ipl being cancelled is a bigger body blow for bcci than that infamous 36 all out &#55357;&#56837;&#55357;&#56834;&#55357;&#56834;

 

[sam_ahm]

There were multiple cases as now it is learned that apart from Saha, even Hussey and Amit Mishra had tested positive. So BCCI didn't have an option honestly, they had to postpone the event. Still some people are making it sound like it's a sensible move by the BCCI and they've done it for safety of players and all that ****. Hell, they just DID NOT have an option.

It was indeed arrogance, not just to keep it in India but also to be adamant and keep it in hard hit cities like Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore, Chennai, Ahmedabad. They ignored calls to keep it in less impacted cities. Then with scores of people dying everyday, they wanted to keep playing for humanity!! I mean how exactly is playing in such an environment related to humanity!? Why did they even say that?

Iv been saying on in here for days that bcci are lying about numbers of infected players and staff. The number of cases that the bcci are sharing with us are just the tip of the ice berg. The are hiding the true extent of the problem . I guarantee we will hear of them admitting to more cases in next few days.

Criminal case should be filed against the BCCI. People are underestimating how professionally and swiftly the PCB reacted to the last two pandemics in the PSL

Don’t worry some some eagle eyed Indian lawyer has already filed a case in a Delhi court this morning against the bcci. Soon we will see bumbling ganguly and orangutan jay shah in the dock . Their defense hinges on the argument that we continued on with the ipl to save humanity and put smiles on faces . Sounds like a cogent, watertight argument to me lol &#55357;&#56834;

 

[Rajdeep]

Will you consider England series as a super spreader series just like Bengal election and kumbh Mela. Gujrat state is struggling alot in 2nd wave of covid.

You intentionally skipped the 'Road Safety Series' just bcoz it was organized in Congress state and dont serve the agenda even though the state of Chattisgarh is suffering worse than Gujarat. Also, your NDTV being non bias channel was a classic give away

Anyway, IPL has just been postponed and the remaining matches will be played in Dubai in late September just prior to the T20 WC (which will also be in Dubai). So BCCI will not lose any money.

 

[Bewal Express]

The BCCI have gone out of their way to hurt PK cricket, and although they will recover from this loss, its still a massive loss. What's that word I am looking for?

 

[sam_ahm]

Yeah that stupid Road Safety series with full crowds was another reason for this outbreak.

 

[MP2011]

Ganguly, being BCCI prez must be equal party to hold IPL in India. Or has he been completely side stepped by Jay Shah for refusing to join ranks of papa Shah prior to WB polls?

Either way, doesn't look remotely good for him or his tough guy image!

 

[MP2011]

These devotees think that everyone is a devotee of someone and would treat their political masters with kid gloves.

If something is bad, it's bad irrespective of the ideology.

Absolutely. I have many friends who were die hard supporters of present government and would go to any extent to support them, but to my surprise a lot many of them are strongly criticising the govt. now, probably because now most of them have lost their loved ones. You don't feel the pain until you experience it.
