‘Sports associations are ailing bodies’ – Supreme Court’s scathing statement

Published by Webster

The sports associations in India are like ‘ailing bodies’, Supreme Court remarked on Monday. The Bench of Justices Surya Kant and N Kotiswar Singh made the statement while hearing a plea by Maharashtra Wrestling Association against its de-affiliation by the Wrestling Federation of India. The state association moved the apex court in the country after the Bombay High Court had dismissed its petition, terming the plea to be non-maintainable. “All these sports associations, there is nothing like sports in them,” the Supreme Court said, as per Bar and Bench. “All are ailing bodies, we do not know they are grappling for what.” This observation from the Supreme Court comes at a time when multiple sports federations in the country are struggling with court cases across various courts in the country. A report in The Indian Express on Monday noted that over the last decade about 770 sport cases reached courts in India. Over 220 of those cases were related to governance and administration.

England suffered an embarrassing 3-0 ODI series defeat and 4-1 T20I series defeat at the hands of India in their recently-concluded tour, and legendary India spinner Ravichandran Ashwin has launched a scathing criticism on them. In particular, Ashwin expressed disappointment at how lightly England seemingly took the series, and also emphasized his disapproval of excuses used by England following their defeats. In particular, England opener Ben Duckett came under the hammer from Ashwin after he’d said that they don’t mind losing the series 3-0 as long as England beat India in the Champions Trophy. “If we lose 3-0 to India, I don’t care as long as we beat them in the final in the Champions Trophy. No one will probably look back on this series if we go and do the business in that competition,” Duckett had said after the 3-0 ODI series defeat. Ashwin sharply responded to Duckett’s statements. “No matter what Ben Duckett says, going into the Champions Trophy this series loss will create a big dent to their confidence,” Ashwin …
