BCCI: What a bunch of retards!!!!

As if Rajiv Shukla's pathetic excuses weren't enough comes another howler from another top honcho Srinivas himself. Any hopes we had of BCCI waking up and smelling coffee are over:

We will beat Australia at home: Srinivasan! Link

After drawing flak from all quarters following India's disastrous performance in the Test series against Australia, BCCI president N Srinivasan came out with a bizarre defence of the team saying all top teams would lose when they play on Indian soil.

"England won 5-0 in England. They came here here within a month or two and they lost 5-0. Last time, after our loss to England, I had said that we will beat them when they visit India," Srinivasan said in defence of the team's dismal overseas performance in the past one year which has seen Dhoni and Co lose seven consecutive Tests.

Srinivasan reasoned that Australia did well as they used home conditions to good effect.

"It is a case of Australians played better in their home conditions," he added.

The BCCI president who is also the owner of IPL team Chennai Super Kings feels that once India plays and beats teams like New Zealand, England and Australia in the coming months, everyone will "feel very happy."

"Next New Zealand is coming to India and it will be followed by England and Australia. We will beat these three teams on our own soil. They cannot beat us here and we will feel very happy."

Seriously, if this is BCCI's reaction to our problems than God save Indian Cricket.

This clown was using the excuses of Eng ODIs to offset 7 test defeats in Eng and Aus. Can the thinking be any lower than this?

Why not invite WI, NZ, Bangars and Zimboks for a 5 test series each to India, and prepare rank bad turners that wrap up a test in 3 days with Bhajji taking 20 wickets every test?

very angry

Obviously the concept of being competitive away from home is a difficult concept for him to grasp.

I don't think he grasps concept either.

Here's a concept he should have shouted at him, loud, long, and repeatedly...

FLAAAAAAAAAAT... TRAAAAAAAAACK... BULLIEEEEEEEEES.

What a moron that man is.

The moron in question owns the Chennai IPL team so no surprise really. All Dhoni and co. now have to do is score some great pajama runs off the IPL in next couple of months and he will be deliriously happy again. As far as Srinivas is concerned, the real trophy was the one his IPL team won off the T20CL. Only in BCCI would such conflict of interest be allowed where administrators are allowed to own league teams and pull strings about where he wants cricket to go to suit his own corporate interests.

Incidentally this BCCI President has no idea of our recent track record. India lost the one day games in Eng 3-0 [rain marred matches] and not 5-0.

On topic, as long as the sport's so ingrained in politics nothing can be done about clowns like this and I'm not speaking about Srinivasan but the likes of Rajiv Shukla, Vilasrao Deshmukh, not to mention the opposition leaders in their states.

Absolutely f*cking ridiculous. Who do you think you are kidding Mr. Srinivasan

I read somewhere on Twitter that he withdrew the statement, or it was misinterpreted.
