Yes, that’s the newest controversy! Should our (fantastic!) cricket team sign the new contract laid out for them by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI).
The new contracts apparently have these new features:
* Payment for players will be based on their performance during the matches.
* There will be a limit on the number of endorsements the players can do.
Of course, as of now the team together have refused (yup) to sign the new contracts. That’s the team spirit boys!

Looks like they’ve taken up my suggestion without me giving it
they should all join the Zee team and give Mr Pawar some sleepless night, heh.

Fire ‘em all!
Me, Vulturo and Shiju can lead the team into its new lease of life. I think i can be the pinch hitter whilst Vulturo can be the fast bowler who bowls at over 100 mps(eat yr heart out Shoaib). Shiju can be the person who keeps the run rate tickin along with his quick singles (here’s where the football came in handy). Methinks Sakshi would be interested too.
Anyone else interested?

BCCI should also consider Rakhi Sawant’s advice for better prospects *see KWK for more info*

Well…I think I can do a better job than Yuvi, Dhoni, Ganguly, Tendulkar, Bhajii, Zaheer…definitely Agarkar. So yeah…count me in.

How do you expect them to sign it with such outrageous clauses like expecting them to perform in the matches?
May 5th, 2007 at 10:38 am
I guess they have no other option but to accept the clauses or else they have to sit besides the beggars at bandra station!!

@ Pensive: What a brilliant idea! Could I cheer lead?
@ Mehak: Yes, I heard about Ms. Sawants advice (via Saks, who else?!) - take the wives on tour so that the boys can be upto no mischief & instead actually practice! Very good!
@ Saks: Such modesty. Know why we get along so great.
@ Twisted: Yes. It’s a *@#$^@*( outrage. What a ridiculous clause indeed.
@ Tsu: Firstly, welcome to TVIMH! Secondly, I personally wouldn’t mind them sitting at Bandra Station. Would go by everyday to see them. True they suck at the game, but Dravid & some of the other boys are OH SO HOTTT…
