ICC Destroying Cricket

[Swaha]

Donot worry PCB has the fourth largest revenue at $55 million, out of all the nations playing cricket and this massive by any standards.

Problem is if India contributes in revenue, so does in football , there are European Nations, who contribute the most, do they make such stupid crazy movies like BIG 3, etc. This only happen in ICC, a corrupt institute due to England,and India cheaters inside it. Only Australia deserves to be the BIG 1, due to its consistent successes in Cricket and overall top class infrastructure and organisation of local cricket.

It was PCB that was trying hard for series against India, not the other way around. Also PCB will lose 60% money from the broadcast deal they just signed if there are no India-Pakistan matches. So we know how things are. If Indians are cheaters, then PCB should stop asking for such series.

LoL u r talking as if India and BCCI doesnot get anything out of the India-Pakistan series. Do you know, India's BCCI said, Pakistan -India series is the most profitable income source out of playing with any other country by 6 times. Money flows like a river in Pak-India Cricket encounters. You bet six times money earning stream for BCCI once India plays Pakistan...is it not true now...and vice versa. India is most welcomed to refuse the series.

Pakistani players are not playing in IPL, for more than 5+ years, did it make massive difference to us, ? nope, since Pak Won 72 overall over India's 51 matches. We are pretty relaxed about it.

Pakistan can easily do away with not playing India as it did before, for 10+ years during the 90s. It can do now.

Lastly, we Pakistanis do have serious issues with Najam Sethi and other incompetent lunatics in the PCB management.

The issue is the ICC, which many countries are now complaining, ICC am afraid has become a controversial organisation, and countries like England who can't pass first round in WC, speak as the bosses of world cricket, and where ppl are resigning and voicing concerns on.

$ 55 million? That's peanuts. Dhoni makes about $ 30 million every year.

"Under the current revenue-sharing model, BCCI gets close to 3-4% of the surplus earned by ICC. Under the new proposal, it is likely to get 21-22% of the gross revenue over the next six-eight years. If ICC earns anything between $2.5 billion and $3.5 billion, as reports say, BCCI is expected to get $550-770 million over the eight-year period. According to a report in South Africa’s Business Day newspaper, England and Australia are expected to get 4.5% and 2.9% of the revenue share, respectively. South Africa will get only 1.3% of the share. "

This is just the revenue from the ICC, apart from BCCI's media & sponsorship revenue as well as what the IPL gets.


PCB eyes $450 mn revenue from India series and ICC revenue share


MUMBAI: Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) chairman Najam Sethi has claimed that the cricket board could potentially earn $450 million in the next eight years due to the four-series agreement with the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) wherein Pakistan will host India and to the increased revenue share from the International Cricket Council (ICC). According to Sethi, the PCB is expected to earn an estimated $300 million from the four India tours and another $150 million from the ICC. India and Pakistan had recently signed an agreement on the sidelines of ICC annual conference in Melbourne last week to play a total of six series, with Pakistan hosting four and the remaining two being hosted by India. Sethi also admitted that without the clearance of the Indian government, the bilateral six-series agreement signed with the BCCI was useless. “We get the most revenues when we play with India and if all goes well, we are set to earn $300 million from the four series we host against India,” said Sethi at a press conference in Lahore on his arrival from the ICC annual meet. “I can say with confidence that in the next eight-year cycle we will get $150 million from the ICC. This compares to Pakistan receiving $10 million per year from the ICC in the last seven years,” he added. The BCCI is believed to have signed the bi-lateral agreement only after the PCB conditionally agreed to approve an ICC revamp that gives major powers to cricket’s ‘Big Three’—India, Australia and England. Sethi also said that the PCB would have been left isolated and gone bankrupt in two years had it not approved the revamp. The first of the series with India is scheduled for December next year, to be hosted by Pakistan but likely played in the United Arab Emirates for security reasons. “The agreement is now on paper and I hope that the day will also come when PMs (prime ministers) of both the countries clear it, then the two countries will also play in Pakistan. But at the moment, it is not possible,” Sethi added. Sethi also said that there will be no compensation if India does not play due to non-clearance from its government. “There was no compensation before, there is none now. This is not the norm in mutual series when government does not give permission.”

Nahi nahi Asianunion aap chup ho jao. You are wrong. Indians are the rulers maha kings of cricket. There is no cricket without bcci india.

@Bang Galore Najam Sethi as I said before is a controversial political figure in Pakistan, he has zero knowledge in Cricket, and by enlarge the article posted above is an old one, and a lie by any standards, It has no ground..nothing materialised as Najam Sethi said.. Najam Sethi and a few more in PCB management are not reliable persons to be quoting.

He also said Pakistan will be become BIG 4, while majority in Pakistan donot want to be part of BIG 3 set up any way.

Honestly, most Pakistanis do not want to be part of the corrupt ICC setup and donot want to be playing India, IPL and BCCI cheaters....especially with 72 overall win vs India 51...this is majority of Pakistanis view. You can judge easily by the dwindling interest in Cricket in pakistan nowadays, football clubs have sprung everywhere in country at town level. A few years more Pakistan will not remain part of the corrupt ICC or majority cricket playing nation.

Dunya News: Cricket:-Cash-strapped PCB to clear up TV revenues ...


No cricket with India costs Pakistan board Rs 482 crore
A senior PCB official says since Pakistan didn't host any home series against India in the four-year broadcasting deal, it lost out on an estimated USD 80 million from its total deal of USD 135 million (approx. 814 crore).

Karachi:

​

Blaming it on lack of bilateral series with India, the Pakistan Cricket Board claims to have lost approximately USD 80 million (Approx. Rs 482 crore) in its broadcasting deal with the Dubai-based Ten Sports that ended last month.

A senior official of the board told PTI that since Pakistan didn't host any home series against India in the four-year broadcasting deal, it lost out on an estimated USD 80 million from its total deal of USD 135 million (approx. 814 crore).

"In our agreement with the broadcasters there was a clear clause that we had to play at least two home series with India in a four year cycle and it would have fetched us an estimated USD 80 to 85 million of the total deal of USD 135 million," the official explained.

"But unfortunately since we have not had any bilateral ties with India at home in this four-year cycle it has cost us a lot revenues," he said.

The official said the tough part was that when the PCB invites bids for a new four-year deal in September, it would face the same problems as in the previous deal.

"Again broadcasters will want to have a escape clause if we don't play India in a home series and it will cost us estimated revenues."

The official explained that broadcasters had no problems in Pakistan hosting its home series against India at a neutral venue because of teams' refusal to come here after the 2009 Lahore terror attack on the Sri Lankan players.

"The issue is that the BCCI is not willing to even play at neutral venues since the Mumbai terror attacks. Political and other relations with India have also badly affected our cricket ties and our revenues," he said.

Pakistan toured India in December for a short one-day series, the first bilateral series between the two countries since 2007.

But since 2008, India has refused to play Pakistan or even in Pakistan and also cancelled a full tour in early 2009.

"To date we have still not got any compensation for that cancelled series from the Indians," the official said.

He said until recently, the PCB had made efforts to convince the Indians to give Pakistan a home series even if it had to be played in India but met with no success although both teams had windows in August

Cash-strapped PCB pins hopes on India
February 16, 2013



KARACHI - The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) is pinning its hopes on the BCCI agreeing on play Pakistan, at least at a neutral venue, in August this year in order to boost its financial position. "In the future tours program India is supposed to tour Pakistan in August. We are hoping that even if they don't tour (the country) for security reasons, they should at least play us at a neutral venue because we badly need revenues from this 'home' series," a source in the board told PTI.
He pointed out that when former Chairman Ijaz Butt left in 2011 there was about 4.2 billion rupees in the PCB coffers. "This was mainly due to an amount of $15 million that we received as our hosting and compensation fees from the ICC for the 2011 World Cup," the source said.
He, however, added that since then while expenses of the PCB had increased, revenues had dried up particularly since international teams stopped touring Pakistan. "Recently the board has received $3 million as its share of the last ICC T20 World Cup. But the expenses are increasing everyday and the board now has to issue fresh central contracts to the players for 2013," he said. The source said that expenses had increased because the board spent a lot of money supporting the regional teams in domestic cricket. "Lot of expenses are involved in supporting the regional teams. One example is that each player in a regional team now earns around 18,000 from a match as his fees and daily allowances."
He said administrative expenses, which included central contracts of players, their fees and other benefits, payment to support staff, accounted for a major chunk of the annual expenses of the PCB. "From the recent Indian tour each player earned approximately Rs2.5 to 3 million as match fees, bonuses and awards. The board also has to now look towards hosting three series starting with India in August, South Africa in October-November and Sri Lanka in December-January and in all likelihood we will have to play these series at neutral venues. In India's case if they don't agree to play at a neutral venue, the only option left is to tour India that is if we get to keep the revenues from the series," he said.
The source explained that when the board hosted teams at neutral venues like UAE, its projected earnings were slashed by 30 to 40 per cent because obviously earnings from ground rights and other sponsorships were higher if the series was held in Pakistan. "That is why the board is now hoping that BCCI will understand the financial position of the PCB and respond positively to play our 'home' series in August. As it is we lost a lot of money when India refused to tour Pakistan in early 2009 after the Mumbai terror attacks," the source said.
He pointed out this was one reason why the PCB had agreed to play the recent one-day series in India without any monetary benefits so that the BCCI responded positively for the August series.
The source conceded that hiring of consultants and other expenses for the planned Super League T20 tournament, which has now been postponed, had also added to PCB's expenses.

LOL this above post is not relevant to this thread which exposes ICC, but a complete mockery article....no wonder as the world considers, Indians make joke about themselves for others to laugh at. The last article is from 2013, and now Pakistan Cricket Board revenues are far more higher and greater with increased TV rights, it is definitely not making any loss...i repeat no loss, as it also have successful domestic T20 tournaments with big Pakistani brand sponsorships competing in city teams which gives a boost to PCB income, which is not counted in overall incomes of $55 million.

As I said, majority of Pakistanis does not want to play cheater India and ICC, its Najam Sethi and corrupt political gang in PCB after money, Pakistanis are now happy not playing in fixed IPL, and ICC events.

India losses 4 times more money than Pakistan, if it does not play against Pakistan. Indians are more desperate to close the 72-51 ratio with pakistan, while it has a good current team. A loss to India is FAR, FAR greater to BCCI than Pakistanis. Calculate India's LOSSES and you will see, the truth behind what am trying to say, Pakistan losses are far less than what India and BCCI losses...which you never count them in and its 4-5 times more than PCB, i assure u ?

Do bother Calculating India's Losses, ?

As I mentioned earlier, we can afford to not play Pakistan. BCCI isn't cash-strapped like PCB and doesn't need to play Pakistan for generating revenues. India's matches with Australia also generate the same kind of interest and money...not to forget IPL, broadcasting & sponsorship revenues. So we aren't losing anything, but PCB surely will lose a lot if there are no India-Pakistan matches.

Lol. ICC has turned for the better.Useless chuckers have been banned,should have started long back.Umpires have the courage to stand up

it has a become a game of batsmen and bowlers are getting screwed..... while it doesnt matter to pakistan becuase we have the best bowlers in the world regardless becuase of our fitness...its the rest of the world that will suffer... soon india will as well becuase their bowlers will be complete trash.. they dont have the genes to make decent bowlers.

 

[Asian.Century]

Cricket has lost its charm, due to Indians, English (a below mediocre team) continous unwarranted involvement, that is given for sure. Cricket has become more bias, corrupted to core and politically dirty, because of these two countries India and England, that is 100% confirmed.

These countries have gone so low life, that they are targetting certain countries to achieve thier lowly aims.

Wat a shame, true spirit of cricket in shambles.
