It seems to be about the very current situation. Kumble, Ganguly, Dravid don't influence things as much ... which is probably what is being reflected. Whether SRT has that much influence (more than the BCCI admins and Dhoni is questionable).

Is this a poll or a jury? Can understand if it is a poll. Else no way Sachin would come over a Kalmadi if it is about influence in *sports* ...clearly, the latter has a lot of influence in anything other than cricket.

Sachin Tendulkar gave the muhurat clap for 'Awwal Number' - that apart, he hasn't done much wrong in the last 20 yrs!

i think the most influential person in sports now is the deadly duo of lalit modi and sharad pawar. Lalit modi who always follows his heart like he says in a popular commercial and influences everyone from the pitch curator to media moguls over broadcasting issues all because his heart is asking him to cash in on the frenzy whilst it lasts. The second chap in this duo being sharad pawar who spits so much crap that it has left a permanent mark on his face apart from the time he assumes the part time role of minister of agriculture.
