11 Case Study:
Mr. Bharat is versatile cricket player. He is playing for Mumbai Gymkhana Cricket Team for
last seven years. His record is remarkable and consistent. He is basically a batsman. He is very
talkative and open minded person. He is not afraid of calling spade a spade. He believes in hard
core merit and very vocal about it. Other players laud his cricketing skills but do not appreciate
his nature. He desired to be captain of the team upon his past sound cricketing record. But
management of Mumbai Gymkhana, preferred other equally bright candidate but junior to Mr.
Bharat. The candidate chosen by management is silent performer. He is not very vocal and does
not speak his mind to exhibit any prejudice. Mr. Bharath is shocked and surprised by this move.
He feels victimized by politics. Management thinks, it?s not only cricketing merit, but other
qualities also do matter in such decisions.
Questions:
(a) Do you feel politics has taken toll on the ambitions of Mr.Bharath? Elucidate your opinion.
(b) Is management right in selecting junior candidate for captainship? Write your opinion with
justification.
