first of all remove people like shivlalyadav from all the associate boards of BCCI.yadav and his son arjun yadav had underplayed rayudu manytime which resulted in inconsistency of ambati rayudu .

exactly, they certainly tried and used every oppurtunity to undermine Rayudu who was so disgusted with their treatment and moved to Andhra team. Shivlal yadav at NCA and his elder son being the coach of Hyd team tried their best to push Rayudu out so that Arjun yadav could get into limelight. this one of those classic examples of what ' patronage' can do to talent'. i wish if Rayudu excels well in ICL and shows his class.

still dream of playing for India: Rayudu
by sweetsixteen on Aug 21, 2007 02:55 PM

How will you young guys ever get a chance when the older players dont want to move out at all. Sachin, Dravid & Ganguly will play till they reach 50 years of age.

WHERES FOOT BALL THAT ZEE GOT ON TO

AFTER ALL THE FUZZ THAT WE ALL CREATED & SAID THAT CRICKET IS GOING TO DIE IN OUR COUNTRY AFTER THE WORLD CUP2007. IT HAS GOT HEAD LINEs IN THE FORM OF "ICL". I THINK ZEE & SUBHASH CHANDRA SHOULD HAVE FORMED IFL "INDIAN FOOTBALL LEAGUE". WHICH WOULD HAVE BEEN VERY EXCITING & HOPED THAT WE TOO AS A NATION DANCED WHEN WE WOULD HAVE QUALIFIED FOR FIFA WORLD CUP.IN INDIA BCCI RULES & PLAYERS ATTACHED TO ICL EXCEPT OR MAYBE ONE OR TWO WILL MAKE IT TO INDIAN CRICKET. COMON SOMEONE FORM AN IFL TOO

Thats a good move or else he will just waste his years with domestic cricket as till this three buggers Sourav,Sachin,Dravid are there there is no chance for others to be in team as they are planning to introduce an ammendment that the retirement age for this player will be 58 years

2. Schedule and Venue
a. The proposed ICL dates clashes with the packed indian season where india will play with Pakistan, Australia and other tournaments. People will watch official cricket or thrown out/old cricketers/young novices??
b. ICL has not found any suitable ground to hold thier league. Any unpopular ground or city will not help their cause. How many grounds they are looking for?? Their league will be concentrated to only 1-2 cities. This will fail to draw crowds. Initially some people may come, but how many matches they will watch.
c. Will they get same support from sponsors, which official cricket gets? How long they will spend money from their pocket to run the league??

Still Kapil Dev and Subhash Chandra still think ICL will be a success%u2026 this will remain as a sweet dream only.

flop show
by Keshab Chetry on Aug 21, 2007 02:38 PM  | Hide replies

Subhash chandra opened a Sports channel with lot of dreams. those were not fulfilled. He lost all battles with other TV channels...and now in frustration he has initiated this step...and also he must have something to show in his TV channels. This much hyped Show will turn into flop show...why??

1. Team composition will be of old Warhorses and young players....
a. Old players will never going to give their 100 % ( They will not dive in the field, they will not bowl at their full, they will not run hard for extra run...)
b.They are here for money... they will be least bothered about their performance... ICL will not dare to throw them out for their performance
c. And above all what will motivate them.... their main aim is to earn some extra money at the twilight of their career.
d. Even if young Indian players have signed... "Whether they have done anything wrong" this will always remain in the back of their mind. With this mindset I doubt they can perform.
e. What will happen to an average state side Indian player if he fails to perform? Will ICL persists with him coz ..He has a contract of 3 Years.
f. What will he do for 10-11 month in a year? He cannot play any other BCCI sponsored cricket... They will lose even jobs with MNCs or public sector Units as they will be not eligible to play for their companies anymore.
g. What will happen if happen if BCCI increase the match fees and yearly contract money for first class cricketers in India? After all BCCI is a rich

This is a new concept and I am sure this will be good for players and also for the viewers as long as they stick to 20/20 format. People now want to see small games and don't have time for test matches. Even craze for one day game is coming down. How does it matter as long as players get money. Anyway they don't get chance to play international cricket. I feel like international football leagues, these leagues will also be successful and eventually one league cricket will be the future. You don't want ICC to tell which country to play. You want good players whether it is from US or Vietnam to play. So cricket leagues give opportunity for the players.

one more format is 15-15, then 10-10 and 5-5 or just 10 hits or so...

time for faster action...

like fast food or fast cars, just fast cricket.
