Bedi's comments

This man known for his all the time opposite comments makes some interesting points

"We will watch cricketers do a jig from April 18. That's Twenty20 cricket for you," Bedi said.

"ICC is toothless to the core. Cricket was much better organised when England and Australia enjoyed power. For BCCI, it is only about votes. Votes can be bought and sold in a democratic set-up."



"I do not see any reason why an umpire cannot call a chuck a chuck. ICC and BCCI have done absolutely nothing about checking the menace. In India alone, 17 chuckers were pointed out last season."

This fella is one of those good for nothing crazy gone old making irresponsible and provocative statements now then to get media glare(if u have seen his program Who is the Criminal? on Star News after each india match then u can understand my view)

While saying India alone had more than 17 bowlers last year with suspect action he completely forgets the pro-active work done by Umpires and BCCI(finding the wrong and sending them for action correction)

I agree that there are many chuckers these days(at least at domestic levels) and also on VOTES being purchased in ICC

Its a fashion now to criticize BCCI/ICC for anything and everything so i am not surprised at his comments about umpires and ICC(also BCCI)

To be honest, the old man does not even deserve a thread. He is an attention seeking sadist. He must be spending hours imagining what statements would get him some footage on news channels.
