The big breach of trust

Amidst a lot of criticism the big man gave the notorious turn coat a chance in one of his first official acts. That too was a position of immense responsibility. The reason the latter was a master in the big man’s alma-mater. However the big man blew his top when it was revealed the turn-coat was involved in a huge shady deal behind his back. Still the big man had sympathy and let him continue in the same position after a terrible shelling.

The delegation
Is it true that a delegation of players met the big man upon their return to island, and complained about the behaviour of their captain. They say that when the side is losing, the skipper also loses his cool and picks on certain players and abuses them verbally in very unparliamentary language.

Wasn’t it a waste?
They say the sports ministry spent over rupees three million on the lawyers to represent the infamous female athlete in Switzerland.

Kasu-Kusu
There is also an accusation that a lot of senior umpires are unhappy over the assignment of umpires to the local twenty20 inter-provincial tournament fixtures.

The latest move
It is said that the captain has lured the dashing opening batsman who went to the West Indies to replace the dashing opener who joined the ICL along with latest spinning sensation to his club at Maitland Place.
