Too funny

[NoName]

Wait is this a comic report or is the BCCI actually serious?

[Ajfar]

What a joke. They can keep up this attitude all they want, sure they can try to kick a$$ at home, but even that's not a guarantee anymore against other top teams. They are only hurting themselves.

they might just ban England from future tours in India

I would hazard monster trucks. The compensation is strong in that one.

okay, now i understand the real reason behind why India does not invite Bangladesh in India...all this poor crowd, no sponsor, no money is bull crap then !!

[Night_wolf]

surely this is a joke or india tv type article

[Jadukor]

Right decision has been made. I mean how could BCCI the supreme ruler of cricket worldwide tolerate such transgression into their land? I think the punishment was not severe enough... In the future all touring national team players should be banned from playing in India and only the coaching staff and managers should be allowed to participate in the test and ODI series to even the playing field.

With so much at stake, BCCI can't afford to ...... Tigers, you know!

Now more like Zeeshan, I have to say, this thread made my day.

It's not exactly tit for tat...These are separate issues altogether...Although BCCI wants to tag it ...

Agreed its a different issue but still its a tit for tat, equivalent retaliation.

It took BCCI 1 week to find an excuse.
