Just after the auction,every body expressed that the Team Cochin lacked a genuine al-rounder and a hard hitting man down the order.That is proved now and that is not a big issue.But how this team’s management is conducting things really is.This has started on the Day-1 itself.Let us analyse the facts one by one.
1.In IPL,the teams are formed by theleague authorities and then auctioned.(Not the teams are formed by individuals or groups,then registered, performed in the 4th ,3rd ,2nd&1st and then promoted to premier league).
2.Players not contracted to the teams but to the IPL and then auctioned(a barbarian method).In this way both teams & players can’t decide up on their priorities(This might have done to avoid big imbalance between the teams & in future the system may give way to soccer league structures).
3.Cochin team is given to the highest auctioneers and their started the problem.No body new whothe owners are and this led to big controversies that resulted the rolling of two powerful headsin politics & cricket.
4.The way this owners(mis)conducted their business was dubious and their intentions to shift the venue was very clear.Their bad tastes showed clearly when they named the team,”INDI COMMANDOS”(read Indore commandos).
5.Luckily we got through all these, and finally we got a team with a beautiful city to represent(by Indian standards) and a state which is geographically and culturally (diagonally) different from the other part of the country,fans who are a class apart from their counter part of the other clubs, a good stadium to play home matches, beautiful jersey & good name and a sensible coach &captain.
It is too sad that the Keralitescan not find good promoters, raise enough fundand form a public limited company and own the club which were allotted to them generously by the BCCI.
Time is not lost. KCA can take initiative and even the Cochin Corporation & also State Government can interfere.
Other wise we will always be black by this “Gupthas&Shas” whom everybody believes to be in the undisclosed list which sleeps in a sealed cover at Supreme court.
(Tharoor, your Sunanda can try a Radia luck- As long as Ambani’s& Ravi Mammans are their in the list, and our Manmohanji is their in the hot seat, that list will not see the light)

Other wise we can get behind some professionally managed Club, who represents good values.
After all if there is match between Arsenal & Mohan Bagan, there will be some Indians who will dies to see Arsenal thrashing the Indian club 20-0
