Cheers.

Well I am also waiting for such a good cricket season where we would see some of the best cricket stars playing in T20 of IPL. I am looking for Indian players performance and also want to find some great cricket as we are watching ICL.

Yes, but IPL has got all the money and sponsors - plus they have a backing from BCCI. Also - the media will play havoc with presence of SRK, Preity Zinta, Deepika Padukone ... and many others.... Cool

I am sure that SRK would get the bolly brigade to pull huge crowds during his team's matches .Now I am not saying that he'd need any of that to fill in the stands because I will be more interested in the cricket being played than the side shows. Can't wait for April 18th to get here, I am already drooling,lol.

Well IPL is big moment for Indian fans and International too. If it will be turn into big hits than we would see many changes in world of cricket and it help to promote Cricket in few bigger nations like USA and China. But they have to make sure that we would see some good crickets.

There are some problems to in IPL since every player have to take NOC from their board to play matches and also many players bussy in their Cricket program.

Like you everyone waits for the IPL.Because everyone wants to see the 20-20 cricket because it is excited and no one knows when the game will change.

Ah well , I guess the game has already changed Smile

. Each country will have their own domestic T20 cricket tournys to pull bigger crowds , but it will be the international players that will make you the most advertising money and IPL has been the first to cash in ,in a big way. I say IPl and not ICL because ICL doesn't have the best players around the world playing for them. This model will be duplicated around the world , maybe not as big as IPL but at least T20 matches will be abundant and the present 7 T20 matches for an international team to keep the test cricket alive would probably be done away with keeping in mind the interest and drift of the crowd.In fact Texan billionaire Allen Stanford had already offered $ 20 Million for one single T20 match in the West Indies to the English,Australian and the Indian Board.

I am just waiting to see how they organise and how public responds to them ... This IPL is already hit but lets wait and see whether it proves himself as hit in its true sense or not ... because now every one is eager to see how it goes and indirectly this is putting extra pressure on organiser ... they just want to make it hit so in near future they can also organise same kind of tournaments and can earn money

This is really really big event and whole world is waiting for it. There are many reasons because of which everyone is waiting ...

1) India won Twenty 20 world Cup and every Indians still remember those crunching moments - Yuvraj Six Sixes, Joginder Shrma's last over

2) So much money involved in it and cine stars also joined so this is also curious point to public

3) Recent Controversy in Australia and maximum Australian players are playing ...

4) More important enjoyment of Twenty 20
