Its a pity Kapil Dev is waging the ICL recognition battle with fewer and fewer supporters. he was not even honored on the silver jubilee of the World Cup victory. Is this Team India or Team BCCI? Who gives BCCI men to not grant Kapil Dev the recognition.
I am very interested in knowing what is the qualification required to head BCCI affairs. Isn't kapil Dev a bigger person than the BCCI people? How is it even legal for them to ban Kapil Dev from anything?
Its today's sportspersons who are tomorrow's board members. Who allows BCCI to ridicule Kapil Dev, I find it so weird.

add to that, if mandira bedi (puke, puke) can be aa rage after xxxtra innigs, its a pity Mayanti Langer is a name people are totally unaware of. Shez pretty good understanding of the game (and of football too) and doesn't make silly comments when experts are opining. She talks sense, and is a skillin times hotter than Mandira Bedi (puke, puke)!
ICL has shown us few of the best 20-20 matches ever.....both semifinals were gr8....n evn tho Kolkata lost to Lahore....bt wt a inning by Klusener..he rocks evn today...wt a inning of 92 runs...gr8 man..n today's final is another gr8 match......nail biting truly...cheers ICL....
even after so much media bias and BCCI continued their work sincerely, and now results are here, the semifinals and today's final is proabably one of the best 20-20 matches, the fielding by Hyd Heroes was amazing, tension till last ball is all 20-20 about
What's up with such a little coverage to ICL compared ot the IPL. Is the media biased towards BCCI backed IPL with giving it so much coverage and almost none to ICL?

I have been asking Prem Panicker the same question for a while. His bais towards IPL and BCCI is amazing. He hates Kapil, which is clear from his writings all these years and therefore doesn't care for ICL or the hard working domestic cricketers. There is tremendous bais in people like Prem. There is no headline to even say that the Heroes won the first final. By the way ICL this tournament has been great...waiting for the ICL Indian team to be announced...will be interesting to see new faces playing for 'India'.
It was truly well contested and a nail biting finish. The match was any day much better than the main Indian teams wonderrrrfull performance against SA. I guess they forgot it was a test, let alone a one day...they finished it all off in in 20 overs - 20-20 Champions..forgot that it was a test. Anyways ICL has some real talent, Rayudu should have been on Indian Team a long time back except for the politics played by Shivlal Yadav and his Son in Hyderabad. Razzaq showed his truly world class again. Anybody would have written the match off after the 3 wides. But thats his class..he redeemed the confidence bestowed in him by his Skipper and produced a fantastic follow up to his 3 wides. all in all..an fantastic match to watch. Now Hyderabad Heroes face the lahoris at Home Turf in Hyderabad on the Sunday. Just hope its as good a match as today
