What do you think IPL was for cricket or for money?

nope i dont agree with you man.the local youngsters are getting a chance to play with the experienced and dear we are dealing with the cricket stars ....there is no use negotiating with them in terms of money .especially in india....i think you got your answer..

dear raghwagh I am not fully convinced with your views. Earlier it was everybody's mind that IPL is for money making, but later it has been proved wrong. From the IPL tournament few good things has surfaced like we have seen /explored the talented cricketer from various region of India such as Rohit Sharma, Yusuf Pathan, Balaji, Wridhhiman Saha etc. who can be accommodated in the national team. Second thing is that it is an unique to see different country's players under one roof, which will enhance a better understanding and friendly relation. Thirdly IPL really catched the eyes of many country's who are thinking to hold such style of game. I can assure you that t20 is the only game in the near future who will receive enmass support. pkc3000

i dont agreewith you completely man.we are dealing with cricket stars and they dont come cheap and you are forgettin that every team has atleast 4 under 19 locals...So the youngsters are getting a chance to perform....just think bout it once more....

I think you will agree with me this. This IPL cricket tournament itself was conducted as a competition to ICL cricket tournament. The idea being borrowed from Kapil Dev's ICL. If there was no ICL tournaments then there would have been NO IPLt20. There would have been no big money playing if Zee Sports had not poured big money and attracted some star players to ICL. BCCI was forced to put more money into cricket because of this ICL. The quality of umpiring and other things in ICL was far better compared to IPL. I only think more of opportunities might have been given to the local state players then to the other state players and foreign players. The money might also should have been circulated among our own players rather then to foreign players. This way our hard earned tax payers money does not go out of our country.

yes..you are right..In this IPL match all the players are playing for money..money...and money only...i couldn't see any other sporting in that. It is only for the businessmen, players & BCCI, not for the viewers. but they are trying to attract people by some other way except cricket such as cheer girls, fun...etc..there is nothing for people...Thanks...

Cricket my friend is about money for the investors. Cricket is an enjoyable game. In olden days there are alot of players who do not make any money. But these days it is all about money. The joy of cricket is loss because of the money that these investors/players are looking for in return. I do not pay the IPL much mind. The culture of India was demolish to me because of those half naked girls who are dancing that is not the India Culture I know. Well maybe next time it will plan better. This was a hasty IPL because of the other league that was form but wasn't approve by the Indian Cricket Board. So maybe they will see the wrongs that was made and right it.

in my opinion money is the main factor rather cricket......

At first I thought it will be all for money but never the less I enjoyed the whole series and we all saw some good cricket being played. The best part was that I was not sad when any team lost because they all our teams.

IPL tournament was for money because no one will play with the team which they have the dog fights continously. They came here because the owners of the team were giving them lots of money .

IPL is only for MONEY..........this is new business for making fast money............As cricket is very popular game in INDIA and the input is low whereas output is very high...............so it is a good way for mAking money

money is everythin... retired players are lured into here because of money... everythin there is money...making money in the name of cricket...
