Exactly. And stop living in denial that all that matters is the Ashes. The public cares about Ashes because in it atleast they come second.
:hysterical: The bitter truth.

Sky have the rights to the IPL in the UK watch the ECB change their tune based on viewing figures. If plenty of asians in the uk get sky for the ipl or watch sky (who are existing customers) there will be a change in (A) England's schedule (B) England players availability in the IPL

Excited for IPL' date=' would have been more interesting with Pak players but entertaining nonetheless.[/quote'] Atleast ask your cricketers not make politically/religiously motivated anti India comments and then may be we can have them in IPL.Its too much of a risk now to include Pak Players. During the IPL,report to the KKR Team Thread :kkr:

Lol maybe we can ask hazharoon to do that since he actually talks to some of the players. I really thought things would become better after Pak toured India in 2012/2013, but guess not. Anyways, Kings XI was always my team because of Priety Zinta :giggle:

I wonder who would be selected for the IPL. The competition among overseas players is intense. Morgan and KP are already there. Stokes, Moen, Hales might have some chance..

I have soft spot for her. And lmao and that is exactly why I don't support Uncle's team. He is Sixer and Bullet Drive.

:cantstop: Don't they have their own league? Why does that not help them?
Pretty much every analyst today was of the opinion that the current T20 system in England has to be done away with and something similar to IPL has to be brought in. Sweet, sweet justice!!
