IPL Cricket – boon or bane?

Over at The Unofficial IPL Blog, Aditya does some crystal ball gazing in the new world of premier league cricket.

As the leagues started to become more and more popular, the salaries of the players started to proportionately increase, attracting even more talented players into the game, creating a positive feedback cycle that benefited everyone. As the teams got richer, they started investing their money in better facilities for spectators, investing in brand new stadiums and facilities for cricket. Undoubtedly, the several world class stadiums that we have today are a direct testament to the huge returns enjoyed by teams.

However, Rahul is worried

(With the entry of IPL and ICL)So many youngsters, will once again revive their dream(of being a cricket super star) strangulated under the debris of societal pressure. New kits will be purchased, clubs will be joined , practice sessions will stretch from dawn to dusk. Yes, yes, I know it’s great, great for the country’s infrastructure, revival(or rather arrival) of sporting spirit. But what will happen to those millions of youngsters who will feel dejected, frustrated at not making to their Ranji, u-19,u-12, IPL,ICL teams.

    Huge boon to not just Indian cricket, but world cricket. Infact, it is great for all sports in India as this money will revitalise the sponsors’ belief in sport. In fact, I have already done a long analysis on this at my blog http://www.cricketstatistics.in – visit it to check out the various rating spreadsheets available!
