Pitch Fixing !!
A new terminology and new dictionary word coming out of Cricket Textbook, a sad day for cricket for sure.
Media will now frenzy how the curators mint money and try to find out few more curators to make it a point....
Be ready for few more Breaking News
😀
One needs to go beyond and look at the lives of these curators, normally they are the past cricketers who could not make it big in the sports world and end up doing these type of jobs which give them satisfaction to be associated with the game and also ensure bread and butter.
The man at the centre of controversy (don’t want to conclude Pandurang Salgaokar guilty without even knowing the details and background but if it has any iota of truth i would definitely feel sad for such a great cricketer) , though had never seen him play but had heard lots of good stories about his bowling through my old knowledge books and understand he had the misfortune on the lines of Paddy Shivalkar of never making it to the Indian Cricket team .He however remained as one of the stalwarts of Maharashtra Cricket.
BCCI conducts charity matches for top notch cricketers who have earned huge money, have good future as coach or commentators. Instead, Why can’t it come forward and make it a point that each and every Ranji player has some mode of retirement benefits so the old age is secured for the players. It also needs to take care of support staff including the curators . These guys need to be taken care off and well enough to sustain the livelihood. They are the ones who nurture the pitch throughout the year , match or no match and are the background boys for making a success of the match and players isn’t it? They ensure any cricket match happen in the right earnest. Being the richest board, BCCI can afford it without much trouble to its balance sheet !!
Remember one thing , to make it as sports person , one has to keep aside all other goals of life and trust himself/herself for making it to glory and if failure hits badly , then all those goals which had taken a back burner ensure success will elude the person for a long time .
Nonetheless spur of moment for such decisions and greed in any form is not justified !! And instead of Breaking NEWS , one needs to look for the root cause eradication.
