Refusal of Graham Ford to accept offer of being coach for Indian cricket team after first showing willingness by being interviewed is result of unwise BCCI step of interviewing Graham Ford and others as coach for Indian cricket-team without having signed necessary bonds from aspirants. The episode has not only embarrassed BCCI but has caused insult for the country in the cricket-field. Indian government should interfere in cricket-management by handing over BCCI charge to management-professions and veteran cricketers. Over-occupied politicians should not have any role in cricket-management which requires persons exclusively devoted for managing cricket-affairs for this country.
