How much confidance do you have in the powers that be in world cricket?
At least my long standing doubts about his dodgy action have been vindicated !!Langeveldt said:I'd also like to clarify that the timing of this pole has absolutely NOTHING to do with the ICC recently branding Allan Donald as a chucker...
Tim said:Yeah but according to this survey even greats like Hadlee, Ambrose, Lillee etc were chuckers.
Because I haven't voted... I couldn't think of what was worse than that...Scaly piscine said:September. Then there's the Zimbabwe situation - How the hell am I the only one who voted for the couldn't organise a pi........... so far?
I think we say that because we havent seen anything different. Its like the monopoly of a state owned enterprise system. In India we had public sector companies that actually proved (with statistics) that they were amongst the best run companies in the world !!honestbharani said:I think the ICC have made a lot of mistakes and they might continue to make a lot of mistakes. But atleast, they keep things under some semblance of control. The Murali issue could have so easily gotten bigger than it already had. So, I think they are doing an average job.
I guess you may be right. But I am still willing to give them the benefit of doubt.SJS said:I think we say that because we havent seen anything different.

Came private competition and poof
They couldnt even survive let alone be considered anywhere near the best.
Its something like that. ICC should not be measured by their own (or MCC's) worse standards of earlier times. They can only be judged (for want of a better measure) by the efficiency with which they function, the speed and quality of their decision making and the professionalism that goes into the decision making process.
On these they will be found wanting by any outside (even non-cricketing) panel of management experts.
Whether anyone likes it or not, this new report has totally exposed the hollowness of earlier claims.garage flower said:Call me cynical, but has this thread been created as another thinly-veiled dig at Murali?
