The way Pakistani batsmen chased the target is beyond my understanding, there was something fishy. I don't know what, but anybody who watched this match will vouch for it. They never tried to chase the target. Infact the way they were playing was very surprising.
Can any one unaware why ICL is not covered up by media?
Why there is no great Sponsors?
Why they couldn't have great (Current)players? Even international players?
Its just a Politics... BCCI is the biggest revenue making firm... ICC can't omit BCCI. If it does, it means they are killing themself. Sponsors will pay more only if BCCI team plays. Media covers only if it gets heavy money.
Who dares to lose sponsors? What if BCCI says Pepsi can't be a sponsor for BCCI if it supports ICL. Else, they have COKE!!!
Remember, there are thousands of companies willing to put Ads while "BCCI Team" plays.
Important, BCCI is not having just IPL but ODI, Tests and great ICC. Think of the number of matches, number of players(Actors named as Brand Ambassadors), number of Hrs. Number of Ads, Number of Coverage, Number of people watching it...
No sponsors can step against BCCI.
Do you people have any Idea of how many sponsors were willing to promote ICL when this theme was announced? the coverage from press? BCCI's opposition...
But.... Money Rules, Power Dominates, Politician Ruins...
Until the man spelled PAVAR is there, ICL will have a tough chance... But I suppose, any one claims power will do the same... Killing the competitor.
Long Live India, Long live Politics, Long Runs Ruins.... MERA BHARAT MAHAN....

yes if you see the same paki bowlers who can boll great yorkers bowled every boll short. even when batting what was hasan raja trying to do is just beyond my cricketing knowledge.
icl do not organize test matches .without playing test matches a player can't become a good player .bcci organizes test cricket mostly and very less amount of one day matches.icl has organized 3 t20 tournaments in 5 months thet are just looking to earn money and destroying world cricket
Look at the fielding standard these ICL India guys display. They can certainly beat the current BCCI Indian 20-20 team without a fuss. There is an overall maturity in the way these chaps play.See their commitment on the field...Especially some noteable good cricketers like Vignesh, Murtaza, Binny, TP Singh, Satish etc...infact each one of them fit into this team so well that it is hard to point out one match winner in this team...ICL ROCKKKKKSSSSSS !!!
this shows us that there are lot of players who are capable enough of getting into indian side and I really would like to see this guys representing the indian side

this chap Ganapati Vignesh is definitly India material...but our stupid & so-called "promoters" of the game in India are only turning a blind eye towards such talent..we need to realise that this loss is not a loss for vignesh or the other talented players, but its actually a loss for india & indians as these sportsman can go on to serve the country well....
