I thought that there is a limit ot nonsensical arguement but this has managed to surpass it. What is to stop others from having similar Centres for excellence. If the Kiwi authorities refuse to put in funds for a similar organisation, why show cheap jealousy against those who have one in place?
As for Tendulkar not having backing or support, that's a laugh. The man probably cannot fart without a dozen people jumping in support. I wonder if the poor guy has a private life because in India he certainly gets no privacy. I should know - I come from there.
