Go ICL!

[Online]

How many of you are looking forward to ICL here?! I am looking forward to it for sure - have had enough of BCCI's monopoly. A nice article abt ICL http://content-usa.cricinfo.com/icl/content/story/321270.html Meanwhile BCCI is putting pressure on Lara not to join ICL

The organisers told the Indian Express that the Indian board had been "building pressure on Lara to cancel the ICL contract for the board-backed Indian Premier League (IPL)".

Good article Online. Thanks for sharing. It doesnt surprise me when players like Robin Morris or Rajesh Chauhan complain that no-one from BCCI ever approached them. It is widely accepted fact that BCCI is highly inept. Which further makes the ICL think tank's effort that much more commendable. Still early days and all but atleast some of our fringe players get a chance to make some money and rub shoulders with classy, if old, International bigwigs.

I will be surprised if ICL survives beyond the 1st season.

I thought so too - but then ICL has awarded 3 year contracts to a lot of cricketers. so hoping it is alive for at least 3 years

I think IPL is going to run over ICL. But we must thank the ICL in forcing BCCI to come up with IPL. ICL were the real initiators.
