Cricket cannot afford to throw up meaningless games before its benefactors, which is what spectators and television audiences are.
Among sportsmen are the noble, the diligent and the caring, as there are the callous, the cheats and the criminals.
One of the reasons you study at great institutions or aspire to work in great corporations is that you hope to acquire the values they stand for.
For its health, cricket needs to look outward to the sharpest minds, to people who sustain and nurture brands and often take hard but necessary decisions. Cricket cannot be bound by cricketing minds alone.
