"Get ready to get out of here with broken arm"


However, there are times when the 'victim' manages to turn the situation around. In a match against Zimbabwe, the great Australian pitcher Glenn McGrath tried to bite hitter Eddo Brandes with the question: "Why are you so fat?". Brandes' answer was blunt: "Because every time I shoot your wife, she gives me a cookie." For his part, the Australian Rod Marsh was the author of this comment to the legendary English player, Ian Botham: "How about your wife and my children?" Botham's response? "My wife is fine, but the children are retarded."

What would Gale, the defender of mental control, the courage and the nobility of cricket, say if he were alive to hear such confrontations between the 'gentlemen' of his beloved sport?

The first penalty was given to a player

There are many more examples of a practice that is not new to the world of cricket. Already in 1873 the first penalty was given to a player, Ted Pooley, for "selling a game", by betting against his own team in a match in which he played  PSL Live Cricket 2018 . Moreover, according to cricket journalist Aranubha Sengupta, the manipulation of results for bets had already risen to unbridled levels one hundred years before the punishment of Pooley. The playing styles used in the field have also damaged the chivalrous image of cricket. For example, the edition of 'The Ashes' played between December 1932 and February 1933 produced one of the most infamous episodes in the history of cricket. In 1930, the Australian team had won the trophy in England, led by a magnificent Don Bradman, the famous batsman who appears, along with legendary names like WG Grace, Shane Warne, Sachin Tendulkar, Garry Sobers and Viv Richards, in the best eleven of the history chosen by the respect...

Football $ 31 million One might think that the most prestigious soccer tournament in the world, and perhaps the most prestigious sports tournament in the world, and point-to-offer the most money of the prize to its winner. It is not like this. But the booty is not bad at all. Spain also won this title in 2010. 4. The Super Bowl Football $ 15.5 million Much could be thought that this would be the sporting event that generates the most money, but as we can see this is the fourth place. Field marshal Eli Manning took the New York Giants to the exciting victory 21-17 over the New Patriots England in February of 2012 and now the current champion are the Ravens who beat San Francisco with an unusual Super Bowl event, as in the half-game the light went off in the New Orleans superdome.

Millionaire Leagues In terms of income, I share some examples of what tournaments and cricket leagues enter the year for sponsorships and television rights: The "Premier League India" receives about $ 165 million dollars, followed by some international tournaments with $ 68 million, the English league $ 66 million and Australia $ 57 million. In India, the main sponsor of cricket is the financial sector, followed by telecommunications and non-alcoholic beverages. PEPSI is one of the main sponsors of the "Indian Premier League" and pays for this $ 14 million dollars per year. In addition, this league has the support of other companies such as Vodafone and Yes Bank.

In the leagues like the English, the Australian and the New Zealand, the main sponsors are banks, brewers and car manufacturers. We can find other sponsoring sectors suc...
