Clearly, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCC1) has little regard for our country. <br /><br />Cricketers and the management are swept by the commercialisation of the game. It's a matter of shame that advertisers are given so much importance. <br /><br />The colours of the tri-colour are just splashed on the jersey to make it look trendy. The new jersey needs to be redesigned.The tri-colour should be placed prominently on it. Our country's name should be printed in bold and in a bigger font than that of the sponsors Sahara.u00a0u00a0 <br /><br />The BCCI should realise that the jersey is a uniform for our nation's cricketers, who are not on the field to make a fashion statement. Also, the Indian cricketers should not forget that they are sports persons and not fashion models.

Don't miss Delhi-6
