- I played cricket at school, and currently play in a league against my son and my mate Derek everytime it rains at a Derbyshire home match, so I probably know more about cricket than Modi does
- While I wouldn't sniff at some extra cash, it won't be my main motive for running the IPL
- I could really use some extra cash
- I'm Australian and care about the fate of current cricket that is not IPL, so I will consider a ruling about current players getting involved and will try to tone down some of the bling of it all - we Aussies like our cricket pure, lose the damn cheerleaders and the stupid electronic scoreboards with their crass statements every time there's a boundary
- I'm probably going to lose my job in the next 3 months, so I'll have the time
- finally - it doesn't look like the BCCI are actually going to reach a unanimous decision to sack him, so surely another contender putting their hand up can only help matters
Seriously, though, if Modi is the VP of the BCCI how is said BCCI meant to come to a unanimous decision (quoting Pawar) about his IPL position? Will he have to sit outside the room like a kid with detention and play on his DS while they talk about it?
That would actually be quite cool. Can someone take photos?

Sid...don't jump the queue. I left my brick before you.
My CV will be available for approval in IPL's Governing Council meeting on 26th.
No mention of why I should be your assistant then? Like that is it? Cool, that's cool....
...I'm just gonna go work on which of your dirty little secrets I will be releasing accidentally on purpose to the press when you get the job.
If you get the job, I want to be a co-owner of Deccan please.
Oh ok, Som. You and Shridhar can share the job but I want to be your (highly paid) assistant. Purna can be co-owner of Deccan, so long as she frequently greases our palms and Stani - you can be our janitor.
OK then, we're sorted.
If you get a job I bet you would
not be able to do 5% of what Lalit Modi has done for cricket. You out of all an Aussie fan thinks that Aussies' cricket is pure? One suggesstion please look at the history and you will find a lot of things that Aussies should not have done to play pure cricket. Please think before you write.
I could handle all the celebrities, it would make your job easier :P
I can't believe it took 6 comments before that post annoyed someone - I need to work harder!
Rish, you're on. We nearly have a whole board set up. Now Modi just needs to go.
Lalit Modi has done for cricket? Please wake up! BCCI need to get rid of this egomaniac and start making the IPL pure again so people are not commercialised by Modi's capitalism.
...by the way Sid, I quit! Janitor? Honestly?!?!
Now where did I put that list....
Sure dump the cheerleaders, most of them are watching each other's feet they are so new to the job, but I love the silly quotes on the scoreboard. It is perfect for 20/20, so cartoon-like as it is.
But you'd be a great janitor, Stani!
