BCCI is taking steps to make team selectors accountable. To make selectors more
accountable, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) on Saturday decided
to put national selectors on its payroll.
Senior selector will be paid INR 2.5 Million and junior selctors will be getting INR 1.5 million. The selectors cannot hold any other position on BCCI. This indeed is a good step in theory.
One thing and main thing I wonder is how it is going to make them more accountable. Is it that by paying them hefty salary they wouln't ask for under the table cuts?
On the contrary, I think, that they would become even more corrupt, now that employees of BCCI. It would be their right to take bribes now. Would you audience agree with me?
If BCCI is serious about making selectors accountable, they should impose penalties along side hefty salaries when selectors make mistakes. You are right, how would any one know if they made any mistakes - there are not measuring criteria.
BCCI, if you are reading this article of mine, please have criteria to measure selctors success or failures in order to impose penalty.
