Badrinath-a victim?

The issue of Badrinath-the Tamilnadu cricketer was not handled diplomatically by the Indian press media. In fact the entire series of news seem to have been done with the sole objective of creating news and not reporting news.

First, they have reported that Badrinath will be considered for the one day matches when there was nothing from official sources. This had created a lot of expectation in him without any official indication from the cricket governing bodies.

Then, when the squad was announced and badrinath's name was not there, the reporter(s) had rushed to get an interview from Badrinath and naturally he vented his disappointment. I think he was vulnerable when the reporter(s) met him.

Poor chap, he was toyed by the media. He will be now regretting his public outburst.
