Rude competition

The current trend in finding talent bu television channels have become rude . This i think was started by American idol . In India Sony's Indian idol copied it . The zee TV which was famous for finding singing talents also chose format which is being rude to contestants. Only difference in zee the judges fight a lot . Now Star's show is trying the same .
But i think the rudest show is MTv's roadies and Gordon Ramsay's Hell's Kitchen .

Performance based payment to cricketers

BCCI decision to pay players on basis of performance will harm Indian cricket on the long run because players will become selfish . They might start plying for themselves . This system is good in case of club matches but not in international matches where patriotism is important .

ICC back to IMPERIAL ways

ICC without thinking much about cricket crazy fans of Indian subcontinent increased the number of teams in the world cup . they know that we will watch the matches and earn them advertising revenue . It reminds me of pre-independence era when British looted India . They further made last 8 league format rather than knock-out one . ICC in trying to capture new markets are ignoring older ones . With craze of soccer and other sports increasing in India it is time ICC takes notice.
