THREAT TO GLOBAL CRICKET GOVERNANCE?

The Board of Controlcontrol for Cricketcricket in India (BCCI) and


the
International Cricket Councilcricket council(ICC) are both different
governing bodies in cricket, but they serve different purposes and
operate at different levels. The basic difference between them is that
BCCI was formed in 1928 , headquartered in Mumbai and governs
cricket in India whereas ICC was established in 1909 , headquartered in
Dubai, UAE and governs world cricket . The question arises here that Is
BCCI’s BCCI’S influence a boon that enhances cricket’s global reach , or a
threat to the sport’s fair governance ?

Everything heard about the Indian Cricket Council is made up to such an


extend extent by different parts of it , making it more powerful!

Controlcontrol for Cricketcricket board globally and hence it influences
ICC significantly. This dominance is mainly due to the fanbase and
a
huge number of people having an interest in cricket and also the
commercial success of the IPL and hence it impacts revenue
distribution.
Every coin has two faces hence the cricket clubs have their positive as
well as negative sidesides.
BCCI’S INFLUENCE – A BOON?

financial strength has led to an increase in sponsorship and media deals
which further benefits ICC and board members. It also offers global
players financial stability and exposure.

well-grown
well grown farm. Infrastructure development has also improved ,
which is setting a height for other nations.
Increased global reach- India’s massive fan base has expanded global
reach. It is also boosting interest in the sports worldwide.

BCCI’S
, limiting their financial and competitive opportunities .
⮚ Revenue distribution remains unequal.

⮚ Weaker boards struggle to get viewed .

⮚ Decisions are made for the betterment and are mainly financially
driven rather than understanding the needs .

about smaller nations.

WHAT CAN BE CONCLUDED?

BCCI’S
undeniably benefited cricket’s growth , overrated over rated
dominance can threaten the sport’s integrity .
✔ A balanced approach is needed , where there is equal
distribution of revenue and everything else is fair .

depends on collaboration , transparency, and a decision that
prioritizes the game’s actual result rather than financial
strength and bribesbribe.

WILL THE ICC ACHIEVE THIS BALANCE OR WILL
