vvvslaxman Posted May 24, 2009 Posted May 24, 2009 Thats a really lame logic' date=' does that mean Test Matches are the best format for advertising? Its not about the duration, its about the viewership.[/quote'] ODI viewership is poor you mean to say? It has still lot of viewers. Come on even Test has viewers but depends on the Test. Just that crowd won't be there. But there is no proof One dayers are having poor viewership. That is one of the erason why they have 7 ODIs and 2 Tests.
Shane Posted May 24, 2009 Posted May 24, 2009 ODI viewership is poor you mean to say? Stop twisting words, T20 has more viewership than any other format. Its not about longetivity its about the viewership in advertising, just addressing your twisted logic.
vvvslaxman Posted May 24, 2009 Posted May 24, 2009 [table=head]Year|No of ODIs 2000| 34 2001| 24 2002| 35 2003| 28 2004| 32 2005| 27 2006| 30 2007| 37 2008| 29 2009| 10 [/table] I don't expect this to drop. Even in NZ they played 5 ODIs. I have no problems with combination of ODI/Test series . But i am not a big fan of exclusive bilateral ODI series either. But when it happens i don't fail to watch. Btw this is India's stats

Shane Posted May 24, 2009 Posted May 24, 2009 Why do you think they introduced a 7 minute "strategy break' then? To avoid the 5-ball overs, which plagued the LOI formats.
vvvslaxman Posted May 24, 2009 Posted May 24, 2009 To avoid the 5-ball overs' date=' which plagued the LOI formats.[/quote'] 5 ball ovrs? That is mainly an ad break. They could squeeze in a few ad that time. Not a single player like it. They still have it anyway. Why. it is all about money. One dayers will keep generating money . Recent one dayers were good to watch actually. Tendulkar/Yuvi plunder 69 runs in 5 overs power play. IT was all fun. It gives time to good players to settle down and attack. It is a better sight than class players trying to slog from the get go and looking ugly.

All i have a problem is the statement below. ODI means more commercials because it is longer. More Commercials, isnt what the Ad company is looking for, its max viewership. kthnxbye.
Shehezaada Posted May 24, 2009 Posted May 24, 2009 no thanks. If it HAS to happen, then hopefully it's a knockout tournament that lasts one week long, straight quarter final, semi final, final. Our cricketers need rest.
ViruRulez Posted May 24, 2009 Posted May 24, 2009 Not any more please There is anyways going to be almost two IPLs from now .. one will be IPL and one will be champions league... I dont want any more But at the same time I will also love to see AFL being a huge failure and IPL overtaking it .. India and BCCI could get cricket being famous in US and then it would be a huge money spinner .. but then he should also pay to India instead of going free without even taxes
Guest gaurav_indian Posted May 24, 2009 Posted May 24, 2009 Modi ke bache ek league football ki bhi karwa.Indian football ke baare mein koi sochta hi nahi.:mad:
ViruRulez Posted May 24, 2009 Posted May 24, 2009 Modi ke bache ek league football ki bhi karwa.Indian football ke baare mein koi sochta hi nahi.:mad: Whatever anyone would say I respect Lalit Modi from the depth of my heart. He has proved everyone wrong and made IPL huge success by his clever marketing. He is simple genius in marketing and he has been a great boon for Indian cricket. I hope he also starts helping schools etc. in India too like he did in South Africa.
Desi Cartman Posted May 24, 2009 Posted May 24, 2009 Modi said the IPL will be back in India next year and the cramped International Cricket Council (ICC) schedule does not leave any room for the possibility of a second IPL in a calendar year in 2010.
h4te Posted May 24, 2009 Posted May 24, 2009 oh, i forgot about Champions league. lol. we already have IPL & Champions League, why more now? haven't you made enough $$$, Modi? :whack:
ViruRulez Posted May 24, 2009 Posted May 24, 2009 oh, i forgot about Champions league. lol. we already have IPL & Champions League, why more now? haven't you made enough $$$, Modi? :whack: thats what I am saying .. it is almost like two IPL already .. Champions league is also his league .. I think CL will earn even more money than the IPL if it is promoted properly .. the viewership of CL will be tremendous in all countries IMO as all the top T20 teams will participate
fineleg Posted May 24, 2009 Posted May 24, 2009 oh, i forgot about Champions league. lol. we already have IPL & Champions League, why more now? haven't you made enough $$$, Modi? :whack: Not just L$M, even players play a part in controlling whether Test cricket and ODIs have a future or not.
