5 hypothetical scenarios if Donald Trump became BCCI President 

And I am at it again. It is indeed true that once you begin doing something, you just can’t stop before it finishes you. In my case, I committed a major sin a few weeks ago when I wrote a slideshow talking about five things that would have happened had Donald Trump become the president of FIFA.

That day, I swore to myself that I would never make people contemplate something like that again. However, once you start something, you just keep doing it until it consumes you.

So, just like how I repeatedly break my promise to never disappoint the ones that love me and place their trust on me, I have decided to shatter my vow and do a piece hypothesizing what could possibly happen if the POTUS becomes the head of the most powerful organisation in cricket.

#5 Objectifying women cricket

Tighter kits would be the trend under Trump

Same thing, different slider. With Donald Trump on board, you could always count on him to do something to put the women under his jurisdiction in a spot of bother and cause them some embarrassment. And there are obviously reasons to make this claim.

This is a man that claimed that women would let you “grab ‘em by the p***y” if you are a “celebrity” – so this just about tells you what he thinks of women.

Other than that, he formerly owned the Miss Universe pageant and there were reports of him actually humiliating the girls that he didn’t deem beautiful enough. That’s not all. There is a video of him where he actually brags about hiring a girl for a job in his company, despite her not being qualified, just because she was pretty.

It is safe to say that this is a man who loves objectifying women and he would do the same in cricket by asking the players to wear revealing outfits. And since BCCI has the most power among all the boards, it would be made mandatory for all the women's teams to wear such outfits.

#4 Bollywood actresses in cricket

A potential Indian women's team captain

In some countries, it is compulsory for a person to serve in the military for a few years. Donald Trump might decide to be a student of that school of thought and arrive at the decision that every girl aspiring to be a cricketer must act in a Bollywood movie first.

Indeed, without a Bollywood movie on their CV, no-one would be eligible to play for the national women’s team. As for the Bollywood actresses themselves, the A-grade ones would have free access to play for the Indian women’s cricket team.

Which could mean that there is a possibility of us witnessing Anushka Sharma as the captain of the Indian women’s cricket team should Donald Trump ever become the president of BCCI.

Wouldn’t that make Virat proud?

#3 Ban Pakistan

Pakistan might be banned by Trump altogether

Donald Trump loves to blame everyone and everything, but himself, for his failures. He could drown a car in a puddle of water on the road and still come up with a way to blame the crevice on the road instead of his own driving.

It is for this reason that Trump refuses to believe that his time as the president of the United States of America has been anything but successful.

Indeed, the multi-millionaire doesn't shy away from calling himself one of the best POTUS' in the history of the world. As the POTUS, he almost always blames Mexico for the problems in America, which is why it would be safe to say that he would do the same as the president of BCCI.

And which is the easiest target? Pakistan, of course.

It is not that the BCCI isn't already blaming the neighbouring country as it is, but with Trump, the aggression would be vocal and, hence, more apparent.

If one day, as the president of BCCI, Trump goes to take a dump and the flush doesn’t work after he is done, he would immediately call a press conference to blame Pakistan for it and insinuate their ploy behind the flush’s failure.

As a result, he would subsequently find a way to ban Pakistan from cricket altogether and given that he would be the president of the most powerful organisation in cricket, it could be something he pulls off.

#2 Cricket matches on golf courses

Classic drive from Donald Bradman Trump

Donald Trump may not have looked after the needs of the people – especially women – treated other countries with respect, handled the North Korea issue with maturity or, in general, run the country well, but the one thing that he has done with great diligence is play golf on his private golf course.

His love for golf is more apparent than his lack of respect for others and he runs off to his private course the moment he gets the slightest chance to do so. It is for this reason that one can almost safely claim that he would attempt to make cricket happen on a golf course.

I mean, there are a lot of similarities. For one, a bat is swung and a ball is hit. So, yeah, just about makes sense doing that. Imagine the rules that would have to be implemented or changed for this to happen. All the shots that go in to the hole would be considered sixes, I reckon.

#1 BCCI Twitter lit

Trump tweeting furiously

Apart from spending most of his time on his golf course, Donald Trump loves to take out his phone every now and then to post a tweet that you would generally expect from a 5-year-old. For instance, he openly bragged about helping Puerto Rico and that no-one could support them like he did, despite most of the area being without electricity at the time.

Most recently, he took to Twitter to claim that the allegations made against him by the widow of a fallen soldier - that he struggled to even remember the name of the martyr – were false, and that he remembered the name very well.

This type of insensitivity is only possible for someone who just loves himself/herself way too much. And it is for this reason that we would see him take over the Twitter handle of the BCCI and make it the most controversial cricket-related Twitter account in history.
