On TV I've seen the Australian and South African grounds and they often allow spectators to carry things into the grounds and they also get a lot of comfortable seating arrangements... and including grass banks.
I'm truly amazed at how well they treat the paying public who come to watch cricket. These countries treat sports lovers with so much respect. Besides there are not so much restrictions on the things people can carry into the grounds. It's something to be admired and appreciated.
Why is it that the BCCI has such strict rules in India and why does our authorities treat the paying public like crap? Why cannot, for instance, we carry cameras to the grounds? Why, even water cannot be carried by spectators on a hot, humid day.
Not to mention the sale of black tickets by unsavoury criminal elements. Even in the recent tennis tournament which happened in Chennai, genuine tennis lovers were unable to get seats for the finals/semi-finals because of these louts who buy up tickets in black and sell them at 1000% profit.
Isn't it time that the Indian sports loving public protested? I think it's about time that we in India demanded that our own cricket boards treat the paying public like crap before we cry about other countries treating Indians with respect. I understand that there's a huge population of cricket lovers here, but still, the authorities here have to make better arrangements for the paying public.
Also the illegal sale of tickets in black has got to stop all over India. I think this is an issue that really needs to be highlighted in the media. What do you guys think?
