Disclaimer out of the way, now about the Riyan Parag vape video, BCCI’s rap on his knuckle for what the press release called “conduct that brings the game into disrepute” and how with time perceptions change. What was once a casual act that mostly went unnoticed or made heads turn is now an eye-raising scandalous taboo. This IPL week, there was outrage, and also virtue-signaling, when the camera caught Parag smoking in the dressing room. This wasn’t how it used to be. Back in the day, cigarette companies poured money into cricket, Wills and Benson & Hedges billboards dotted stadiums and a player seen smoking in public inadvertently multiplied his machismo and mystique.
