Leader Online Desk: In this year's Indian Premier League (IPL), Lucknow team owner Sanjeev Goenka slapped the team's captain KL Rahul on the field and sparked a debate in cricket circles. Now former Indian cricketer Virender Sehwag has also attacked Sanjeev Goenka.
All these traders…
Speaking to Cricbuzz, Sehwag said, “They are all businessmen. They understand only profit and loss; But there is no loss for the owners of the participating teams in the IPL; So what is bothering them? You are getting a profit of 400 crores. I mean, it's a business where you don't want to do anything. Either way, you're making a profit. So your job should only be to encourage the players. What happens is that the player thinks that there are other franchises in IPL, if I leave, someone else will take me. If you lose a player, your chances of winning are zero.”
“Owners should talk to the players to motivate them when they meet in the dressing room or in the press conference; But an owner starts raising questions about a certain player among team management members. It is important to see that the coach and captain lead the team. Team owners should avoid getting angry with players or backroom staff. Sehwag has also given this advice.
