My Opinion for DLF IPL (Indian Premier League)
Indian Paisa League
After 44 days of action and 59 matches, one may safely say IPL has been a success. Not since the Packer revolution, which fast-tracked cricket into the professional age, has an event challenged the status quo as much the IPL has. However, unlike the Packer one, it has ICC’s (grudging) blessings too. Be it entertainment, globalization of the game or unearthing a new set of star players, it seems to be have achieved most of objectives. But the real revelation has been the amount of money that has been splashed around.
The IPL or Indian Premier League for T20 is done and over with yet the hangover is still not gone. Evenings that for once were not about the K factor seem to have gone back to soap and reality shows. I must compliment the BCCI especially Lalit Modi whose brainchild IPL was for making such a strong statement for domestic cricket. I remember when people used to go and watch Ranji final they had enough space for them to lounge around, loll around walk around - but not at the IPL my friend. You will be lucky to get your self enough space to rest your backside. Anyways why would you need so much of space anyways since you would always be sitting at the edge of your seat.
The 1st edition has already been placed in the top 5 leagues around the world (behind a couple of European football leagues and the NBA). This may increase the next year given the talks of removing the 5 million USD cap. The BCCI has already made a staggering US$ 1.75 billion solely from the sale of TV rights ($908 million), promotion ($108 million) and franchises (approximately $700 million). The costliest franchise is that of Mumbai Indians brought by Mukesh Ambani (no surprise there eh..) for 111.9 million USD and the costliest player being MSD for an astronomical 1.5 million USD, making him on par with some of the costliest footballers in the world. And the infamous slap-gate affair cost bhajji a whopping INR 3 crore, making it easily the costliest slap in the history of sports.
One thing that impressed me was its Corporate feel, the promoters backed their teams like they would to their employees. There was camaraderie on the field, leadership, stars, excitement, pressure - you name it and it was there. More importantly it gave the seniors, juniors and the rookies from U19 an equal opportunity to excel and reap benefits out of it.
Lastly I was happy Rajasthan Royals won this tournament - it proved once again that in the hands of a good leader even the inexperienced can create wonders. Hats off to you Shane, you have my new found respect.
I’m a huge fan now of IPL and basically the T20 format it keeps my adrenalin rushed.

Уметь слушать тишину - значит быть способным услышать бесконечность, как говорил Моцарт, на вашем сайте тишину не послушаешь, но много интересного при этом подчерпнуть можно - за что и спасибо большое, удачного вебмастеринга

анекдот в тему:
Подруга рассказала:Вот как все было на самом деле: приходит как-то к московским ментам человек, и спрашивает: сколько будет стоить три машины со взрывчаткой расставить вдоль Кутузовского проспекта? Ну, менты переглянулись, репу почесали, говорят: тридцать тыщ баксов! Тут в кабинет врывается спецназ ФСБ, и кричит: «Всем стоять! Контрольная закупка! »

lol many of the commentary people write are such stoner remarks, again and again i question if they actually read the articles and reviews and reports before posting or whether they mearly skim the title of the post and post the very first thing that one thinks of. anyways, it is good to browse clever commentary occasionally compared to the exact same, old oppinion vomit that i ordinarily see on the net
May 4th, 2010 at 12:28 am
