This issue came up some time ago whether Team of Cricket instituted by BCCI should be called as Team India, as they have nothing to with India, because all the money that BCCI earning is not coming to government of india or its people but going only into the cofers of BCCI and they are becoming rich and they are governed by the politicians and hence benefiting from it. While other sporting boards in india have some form of govermental support or intervention or they are functioning under the indian government but only in cricket there is no such thing happening but only BCCI is incharge and they are benefitting. Even in international level it is the ICC that is controlling cricket on the whole rather any countries. Hence I feel that Team BCCI should not be called as Indian Team. What do you say?

Ya exactly you said it . In this scenario , BCCI is getting richer and richer , and not even a single person is gaining anything other than them and the players. Something should be done so that it cud benefit our country . Why cant the govt control our team ?

Government cannot control BCCI or our team, because government is run by politicians and the politicians have an hand in BCCI or will be kept quiet by BCCI moneterily and hence this situation is getting worse.
