Indian cricket controversies

We didn't start the fire!

Indian cricket is currently going through 2 major storms (Tsunami, if you may). One is the reaction of the media over Sanjay Manjrekar's comments on Sachin. The second is regarding the book that John Wright has written (John Wright's Indian Summers) about his time being the coach of the Indian cricket team and the selection biases that take place in India. I always felt that this was just a way for the media to keep printing some sensational stuff since there is no "live" cricket going on nowadays. Here is Sambit Bal, the editor of Cricinfo, on his take on this issue - it is indeed a smoke without fire!
