Cricket-team of Board for Control of cricket in India-BCCI lost badly to cricket-team of Pakistan Cricket Board-PCB in final of Champion Trophy 2017 on 19.06.2017 at London. Various undertakings under central and state-governments race for awarding huge money and other public-assets to each member of BCCI cricket-team in addition to heavy award-money for even single match-winning performance. Each member of BCCI cricket-team got rupees two crores each on their winning World-Cup cricket-final when some of the cricketers found earlier declared rupees one-crore award-money insufficient. But if our money-minting ultra super-rich cricketers can be showered with enormous amount of award-money over and above normal match-fees and monthly and other allowances from public-funds, then they should feel themselves duty-bound to return the gesture likewise by donating adequate money for some public-cause on each of defeat from foreign teams.
Media should not over-project religious prayers made by certain groups for victory of BCCI cricket-team, since subsequent match-loss tends to shake faith of religious minded people from the religion.
