The Unit Earning System
I propose a Unit based earning system for cricketers:
- Every run scored: 1 unit
- Boundary: 6 units
- Sixer: 10 units
- Wicket taken: 25 units
- Catch taken: 15 units
- Successful stumping/runout: 15 units
- Match won: +100 units
- Match lost: -25 units*
- Man-of-the-match: +25 units
- ...and so on, if i missed something.
Assuming Sachin scores 77; takes 1 wicket; and further assuming if India wins, Sachin would walk away with Rs.102,000/-.
And kindergarten kid wouldn't think twice to calculate if he ducks.
In case the team loses and there is a negative figure on any player; he would take nothing and the same liability carry forwards to the next match.
Then, what happens to the prize money? To be used as a pool to upbring new players.
That's how appraisals work universally, right? Then why spare cricketers?!
Fair enough?

Hi Bharad,
Saucy proposal, I must say. Thanks for your comments on my blog! I see that you are an avid blogger yourself. Why not participate in the cricket blogging contest that I am judging in association with Google & Blogger. Here is the link to submit your entry.

wonderful. nice proposition ..put it in the contest...good luck! ;)
Superb.
In the English Premiership the underperforming football clubs are relegated to Division A. Its like a step down the ladder. I really wish this idea of yours is implemented and every player is ranked at National level. At year end the trailiers are back to State Level teams, and the top performers at State Level move into the National Squad - automatically.
Oh... goodbye to Selectors Committee.
