ICA 2019 Election – Candidate Information Sheet

Name: V. Krishnawamy Post: Treasurer Key Agenda for ICA (Maximum 20 words): To present to BCCI the views of senior cricketers for betterment of cricket and the interest of senior cricketers in non-confronting manner.

Cricketing and Administrative Credentials (Maximum 150 words): I have played 42 first class matches for Tamil Nadu and south zone. I was also one of the local reserves for the Indian team in 1979 against Pakistan. I have played in the golden era of 1970’s with stalwarts like Pataudi, Bishen, Prasanna Viswanath, Gavaskar, Chandrasekar, Kirmani, Venkataraghavan, Brijesh Patel, Jaisimha and others.

Professionally I joined Indian Overseas bank in 1974 and served till 2012. I got varied experience in places like Gujarat, Kolkata, Ranchi, Bangalore, Chennai, Coimbatore, New Delhi and Mumbai. I served at Seoul, Korea, gained overseas exposure. I worked in various capacities in departments like foreign exchange, treasury (managing funds) human resources and business growth. I became General Manager in the bank. I was President and C O O of Karur Vyasa Bank from 2012 to 2015.

All these have given me vast administrative skills.

Personal Statement to ICA Voters (Maximum 300 words): Till now there is no collective voice of senior cricketers at BCCI. There has only been some sporadic representation to BCCI. This has not resulted in BCCI granting required benefits to all needy senior cricketers. Of course it is laudable that BCCI is extending medical reimbursement facility and pension benefits to certain category of cricketers.

However, given the stature of BCCI a lot more can be done. I believe that I, if elected as treasurer will work with other office bearers and directors to

1) Ensure that all benefits are extended to first class cricketers support staff and ground personnel. 2) Explore the possibility of extending these benefits to people outside the cut off of BCCI through their respective associations if needed. 3) Ensure that pension benefits are increased every few years in tune with inflation. 4) Increase medical reimbursement of Rs. Five lakh. 5) Ensure medical reimbursement to all first-class cricketers, support staff and ground staff also.

I also believe that we as past senior cricketers should play a very proactive role in unearthing talent in semi-urban and rural areas to compliment the efforts of BCCI.

All these might require us to manage the funds allotted by BCCI judiciously. ICA may also be required to raise funds for promotional activities for spreading the cricket to semi-urban rural areas and the benefits to retired senior cricketers. This will require financial acumen and contacts at various levels including BCCI.

Given my long stint as professional banker i feel that i am best suited for the post of treasurer to not only raise funds but also manage the funds in a professional manner within the IT regulations of the government and foreign exchange management act of Reserve Bank of India

I earnestly request all ICA members to vote in my favour to enable me to further the collective cause of senior cricketers.

I am so glad that the BCCI has initiated and established the Indian Cricketers Association for the welfare and benefit of all the former and current cricketers, who have been instrumental in the progress of Indian cricket. Indian cricketers needed to be heard for it to be taken even further and to give them a voice through the ICA is a wonderful gesture.

I will be truly humbled and privileged to be elected as a Member Representative in the ICA and my aim would be to help, assist, hear and represent the needs and wants of the former players.

Finance and health are two of the most important areas of concern for cricketers in their second phase of life. A good medical policy, adequate pension and a well-structured system would be my primarily initiative for the welfare of former cricketers. For me, it will be a pleasure to serve every cricketer who played and plays the game in India. Yajurvindra Singh

My experience across various areas of cricket, is a key factor which will help me in addressing our concerns to BCCI keeping in mind the best interest of cricketers. The outside world sees the glamour of Cricket. There are a fortunate few who were in the Top XI in their times. But there are countless others who have given equally to the game at grassroot levels. Most ex-cricketers, men and women, are struggling to make a living. We need to work with BCCI to help find and create more jobs for such ex-cricketers. BCCI has

done well for cricket for which results speak for themselves across national and International competitions. However, there are issues that need to be addressed regarding pensions for players and widows of first-class cricketers, insurance, Mediclaim, one-time payments, increase in existing pension slabs along with sponsorship for women and junior cricketers.

Key Agenda for ICA (Maximum 20 words): To achieve all the objectives of ICA, by fulfilling all my obligations as ICA representative to apex body (Punjab) Replace with digital passport photo Cricketing and Administrative Credentials (Maximum 150 words): I have played first class cricket between 2001-2007. Moreover, I played for list A Punjab and also T20 for Punjab. Furthermore, I was the part of IPL league from the team “Mumbai Indians ( season 2009-2010 ) and Deccan Chargers ( 2011-2012 )” . Personal Statement to ICA Voters (Maximum 300 words): I as the representative of Punjab for ICA in Apex council would like to raise my voice for the promotion of cricket in Punjab so that young players could get maximum opportunities to play matches. I would like to extend my helping hand to the young aspirants devoid of facilities. Besides that, my prime focus lies in arranging various tournament for different age groups. I would like to be a voice for the ex-cricketers of Punjab who are struggling financially to make their both ends meet. I would like to make sure this all is not going to be done for gaining any publicity, I sincerely wish to uplift the standards of our youth and ex-cricketers so that they get a direction in their life. I feel arranging coaching, umpiring and other camps for ex-cricketers would genuinely be of great help for them. Highlighting the problems of young district level players who have the potential but cannot afford the first class training facilities neither during practice sessions nor ground equipments can serve tremendous help for their upcoming events. I would like to bring under the notice of cricket association that daily allowance or match fee of umpire,match Referees,selectors ,scorers as well as players and other officials is very less,Even the salary of groundsmen is below the collectors'rate. I would like to promote club cricket in Punjab.

It is important that everybody is given their space to explore things in life. The same applies to all the women out there as well,Let it not only be men's game,let the women explore and the world knows that how a woman can even excel in cricket. The bottom line is we require first class training and infrastructural facilities at both district and state level for the sustainability and longevity in this sport. Regards Ishan Malhotra

Name: Amikar Dayal Post: Male ICA Representative Nominee to Apex Body – Bihar Cricket Association Key Agenda for ICA (Maximum 20 words): Enhance capacity of young cricketers using skills of ex-players. Build networks between new and old players in cricket playing nations.

Cricketing and Administrative Credentials (Maximum 150 words): 1. Former Captain of India U-19 and India Youth Cricket Team (U-22) 2. Captained; Bihar U-15, U-19, East Zone U-19 3. Ranji Selector for Bihar-Jharkhand, 2006 4. Technical Head for Organizing Committee for World Cup match held in Patna, 1997 5. Regional Sports and Cultural Secretary, Food Corporation of India since 2017 6. Chairman, Amikar Dayal Center for Cricket Excellence in St. Xavier’s High School, my Alma Mater 7. Organises special coaching sessions for poor and under-privileged children 8. Member, Committee of Management, BCA as player representative, 2018-19 Personal Statement to ICA Voters (Maximum 300 words): I. Motivation; Meeting Sir Don Bradman in 1985 during the India-Australia U-19 test match was a defining moment in my life. During breaks, I sat with him in the pavilion named after him. He spoke about the grit and determination that sports people tend to develop as they walk on the ground and play in the presence of thousands of fans and critics. The hits turn them to Sport icons, the misses pull them to the lowest. That’s where characters are build. That was my learning lesson and how I have set my life’s goals, learning from my cricket life and taking successes and failures as learning lessons. In 1985 I opened innings with Sunil Gavaskar, in tournament, my most respected senior. In “Gavaskar’s Column” he wrote several times about my cricketing ability and leadership, which inspired me. While in my everyday life I use the opportunity of my cricket learnings to build network among cricketers, I also use that opportunity to train young cricketers in Bihar. Since 2001 after the bifurcation of Bihar, cricket absolutely ceased to exist in Bihar. It is my home; I had no option then. In those trying times I had thought to somehow keep the flames going. I took the initiative to voluntarily train young cricketers (both men and women) for free. Some of them went on to become national and international players in the limited resources they had. Now, I want to pool all the resources to enhance skills of aspiring and upcoming young cricketers in the region.

II. My Future Plans for Retired and Current Cricketers;

1. Creating cricketer’s clubs 2. Develop group insurance schemes 3. Conduct fund raiser tournaments 4. Building cricketer’s communities for education and training loans 5. Community building schemes for families of cricketers.
