Cricket time again..... the idea of sending our team to a place whr they know very well that the condition is voltaile is stupid.... i wud like to see india play pak but not at the players risk... if teams like Aus and WI go for a neutral venuw ...why not us?... I'm pretty sure that the ratings of the channels won't vary much.. but there is less likely to be an impact on the "Peace" process as the politicians want it... I find the fate of the cricket team deciding the upcoming general elections so ludicrous... and demeans the intellect of the indian common man....(well u just can't buoy the mind of the indian masses... i guess they wudn't schedule a match on the election day).... The worst part is if the star players opt out and we get hammered, I will hate to see the opposition commentator brag abt themselves.... To BCCI... send a full strength team ....send it to neutral venue... I hope the series doesnt turn to be a damp squib....
