Verdict is out: ICL a complete flop

[SachDan]

It seems like we are watching a cricket match on DD in the 90's. TV coverge is absurd.About the outfield least said the better..Tony and company is trying to hype too much but I think its in vain.

[Guest Hiten.]

all the cricketing facilities have been blocked by BCCI what are these poor chaps suppose to do ? Moreover, they forced other boards to ban players who participate in ICL.

[beetle]

I am watching it more than the boring one sided test match.....thatsays a lot. Too early to pass a verdict.......it's better than I expected. BCCI has done it's best to stop them....

[King]

I still don't understand why the BCCI opposed to ICL. They are hardly going to play a month in a year. Moreover ICL did mention they would release the players for international duty if any. I think BCCI got a bit too nervous for nothing.

[beetle]

Too much politics too...Ravi... One reasoncould be.....All anti pawar politicians came out in support of ICL......

what rubbish. i found the night games coverage better than test match coverage. and the field looks alright dont compare it to eden gardens compare it to green park

[Cricketics]

dude its not that bad.. i am also following it..

[varun]

yeah it's not that bad.. Today's match with Inzi/Razzak/Mahmood was interesting to watch. They just need a slightly better ground and a better pitch (I think they play one more match on this ground and move on). Hope the other one is better.

[Cricketics]

^yes indeed.... though the games have been low scoring, the team batting 2nd has made sure the game get more interesting..

[talksport]

Its Good, Very Good. Especially the performance of the youngsters.... There is Professionalism every where

[The Outsider]

Cricketics and others, didn't get a chance to watch these games. Can someone tell me how fast Abid Nabi was clocking on the radar?

[Cricketics]

good job apoco @shweatabh, abid nabi wasn't that fast really.. and i heardl commentators were discussing he used to bowl consistently around 140.. man 145 toh apna agarkar he maar jaata hai..

I am not comparing it to Eden Gardens but.. Any way they are spending too much money why don't they care about TV and ground,two vital aspects of the game? Where you will see a cricket ground in India where International match is played?

[flamy]

They will be playing all the matches on this ground. I really would give them another chance to get a better stadium, but I dont think the general public will be as forgiving.
