ICC puts Sri Lankan board funding on hold

Cricketer Of The Year
Urgh super nationalistic cricket fans are the worst.

Well sledger's the worst. Those guys come a close second.

I don't like the move to cut SLCB's funding. I don't like the move to cut any funding. That just kills the sport in the country; it won't get those guys out of office. Get the member boards to agree to refuse to play SL until they have a proper board in charge IMO. A corrupt board won't stay in power for long if suddenly no one wants to play them.
Well SLC from 2012 onwards in particular has been absolutely farcical in terms of corruption and these committees were 'elected', if anything this appointed committee full of respected former cricketers had the potential to stop the rot if anything, so it's sad to see the ICC act so suddenly despite turning a blind eye to the corruption in years gone by simply because protocol was apparently observed until now

What have Indian produced? Don't be jealous on Sri Lanka.You might be a senior member here,but that doesn't mean you can come up with cheap comments.Murali is the worlds greatest spinner ever.His records will never ever be overcome.What has India produced all these years?Nothing.India got its test membership in the 1950s we got ours in 1982 and in 1996 14 years later we win the 96 WC.How many centurions do India have in WC Finals? No one.We got two in Aravinda and Mahela.We are easily ahead of Indians.We had Jayasuriya,Vaas,Arjuna,TM Dilshan,that too from a mere 20 million popularity when India have 50x the popularity we have.We all know how tough it is to resist when teams like Sri Lanka have developed in cricket in this short span.Something that India could never accomplish.Get your facts right before posting.You've got no right to criticize Sri Lanka.Could India even win a gold medal in an Olympic game? Could they? Having a popularity second only to China.Shame on India.

omg :laugh:

Anyway, look, I'm not joking around. I am a proud Indian, and for you to suggest Sri Lanka are better than India is just sad. You have no evidence for this whatsoever. Please provide something to back up your childish claims.

Owns does not mean produce. You could do without ever posting.
Don't delve into those nitty-gritties - that post was meant to be light-hearted (Kamal Rashid Khan is scientifically a human being afterall). Ok JLR isn't produced in India - it is rather owned by an Indian company who make another country produce it. Happy?

Now Sir, Get lost.
