You gotta THANK INDIA that we made it what it is!!! Neither the brits nor the asutralians have given the game half of what India has. Their incompetence kept the game in the gutters until we gave it the leadership it needed to become such a global phenomenon.
lol can you elaborate bit further?

Now I need explanation of why you think aside from financial backup what has BCCI done to make ICC more competent and powerful? and what has BCCI done for the game of world cricket in particular?

True the game of cricket was controlled by ECB for over a century and that is because of the reason that cricket laws were written by MCC (Marylebone Cricket Club) based in England. It had the power that even ICC couldn't dare challenge its ultimate decisions. ECB and CA were the largest or should I say sole source of revenue to the ICC before IPL ever launched and the money coming in from South Asian subcontinent too.

Oh you think so? WHo picked up the game from the dumps, introduced new formats, increased viership and revenues by a gazillion times. If we weren't there your cricketers wouldn't be superstars but poverty struck and diseased (think hockey and kabaddi for reference). Worse, your players will still be at the butt of racism from the brits and australians if we didn't throw our massive clout to squelch the likes of even racist @$$holes like John Howard (a PM no less) from running cricket. What's your contribution again?

I fail to remember any new format introduced by India. Can you shed some light on that?

As I said a part from financial advantages given by India and that too only after IPL was introduced... I see nothing extraordinary BCCI ever did to make cricket strong and popular. Please highlight all the achievements you are bragging about in simple English.

Increased viewership is not because of only India. Tell me who doesn't like cricket in the subcontinent? there has been equal viewership in all of South Asia with difference being left for the varied population of each nation. Sri Lanka is as much mad cricketing nation as India since 1995 when their team took major turns and they became a bigger team and won the world cup in 1996. Bangladesh is equally mad cricketing nation since 2000s as is Pakistan since 1950s.

Well our cricketers of 1970s, 80s and 90s were always super stars and we still proudly name them in all the newspapers, media and general discussion. In fact I was very proud to see when I went to Lords cricket ground for the first time about 15 years ago and found the names of Pakistani players written under the achievements column of different dressing boards and their photos alongside Australian, Windies and English cricketers. I was a child so there was another joy to check out almost 0 Indian cricketers achievements of those days. Now there is a long list of Indian cricketers too but only recently when the Sachin Tendulkar became great and other contributions became more evident.

Worse, your players will still be at the butt of racism from the brits and australians if we didn't throw our massive clout to squelch the likes of even racist @$$holes like John Howard (a PM no less) from running cricket. What's your contribution again?

oh yeah the Indian team used to get spanked by Pakistani team in 1970s, 1980s and 90s so Indian people may be less interested in cricket, I can't say the same for Pakistan. It is not wrong to say that Indian cricket only became a good team after Dhoni took over. Yes there were minor glimpses of greatness under the captaincy of Dravid, Ganguly and Kapil Dev but their records are still poor despite big names.

Earlier, they were always a competitive side but never actually a good team. The perception of most nations was that "oh we will win this match against India and start thinking about rest of the tournament". Just check out the stats and you will find out. Pakistan's win loss ratio for example was around 2.50-3.00 times when you change dates from 1970s to 1999 cricket recording. Check out the stats for most big nations and you will find out that Indian team used to lose most of the matches. Even drawing a test was considered a big achievement back in 1980s and early 1990s.

I can give you the long list of contributions made by Pakistan in the international cricket but not been able to highlight much about BCCI's contribution that you are bragging about so loudly. The one day cricket was changed after Kerry packer and it is not wrong to say that the most contributions made to ODI was due to Australia and it should be respected. All the formats of 40 overs cricket, 60 overs cricket, 45 over cricket, 55 over cricket and 50 overs cricket was more do about the mutual understandings between English cricket boards and cricket Australia. All the laws and inventions are still written by them so I fail to understand the contributions you are talking about. Even T20 was introduced by English teams.. What we have done is tried to neutralise ICC after addition of several nation cricketing nations in last 2 and half decades but if Big three idea would ever prevail... we are literally saying that we have gone back 3 decades and all the important work lost by this decision.
