ICC is a puppet organization
ICC is a puppet organization which has forgotten the ethics of cricket and sports. ICC is just folllowing the Indian plans due to money. India is the biggest source of revenue for ICC. There are other memebers of ICC but they dont have say in this organization. All the memebers have to follow the dictation and plans of ICC which are formulated by Indian cricket board. It is compulsory for all the teams to spare the players for IPL (Indian Premier League) but if any big event of cricket like world cup or champions trophy schedule contradict with Indian cricket schedule then ICC must change the dates of events for India to be available for cricket. The teams has been seen playing international cricket without their key players because players busy in playing IPL. IPL dates are fixed, there cannot be any change. All the international cricket teams should formulate their schedules in such a way that IPL is not disturbed and make sure the players representing from those countries are free from national duty. Is this cricket? Is this gentleman game any more? I was browsing Yahoo answers and find the following question
Is ICC a puppet of BCCI?

There is a preferential treatment towards some members while some members are being totally ignored. The game of gentlemen is in the hands of wrong people. If the affairs of ICC will continue like this then the cricket in this planet will become the most disputed word. I am a cricket lover, intention of writing this article is purely base on sending message to ICC about the feelings of cricket lovers around the world. The former cricket players should come up to save the world of cricket.
