    SLC should be transparent and follow accepted procedure.

    Ten Sports owner and New Chairman are very close friends. Why can't you help?

    This is all to the Gallery... Now they are going to appoint some one who is 30+ as the Captain of the Test team who is still not among 30 man pool. This is in the name of infusing young blood by taking revenge from Sri Lanka's two primier batsmen.
    We will not have cricket if this is done to even sell our T.V rights.

    boru sobana !! Wait and see Tensports will get the contract once their commissions are paid

    Lobo Thursday, 07 February 2013 11:45 AM

    Why? Does he want to keep it for Carlton Sports Network?

    mark anandappa Thursday, 07 February 2013 12:01 PM

    This is just "show off " it is like" you skatch my back i will skratch yours". Iam sure this another way to demand a commission to get the deal .

    Please Have A Better Minister For Sports Especially Cricket. He Doesn't Know A Thing About Bat And Ball. You Have To Deal In A Professional Way. Take An Example From England And Australia
