a game as old as cricket cannot be controlled or patented, registered and trademarked. the game belongs to the culture across continents - it does not have any owner.
what icc/ bcci is doing is illegal. they need someone as a counter balance. bcci's bull headedness will one day cost india dearly.

This is because of clash of personalities. Kapil is the initiator of this concept of 20 over cricket and BCCI and ICC are being totally unfair to him. He is a selfless cricketer and maybe he is not liked by the powers that be.
BCCI tried everything to make ICL an unofficial cricket event by putting enough pressure on ICC. Can BCCI stop American Premiere League by putting pressure on USACA? Can Lalit Modi do that?
Greatness can't be define except one person on earth .. Sachin Only Person played cricket more than half of his life..He is 36 now & has 20 yrs of experience under his belt..

Sometimes males can be given the title of "Diva" (or as some prefer, "Divo"). Elton John, Tom Jones, Sting, Justin Timberlake, Andrea Bocelli, and Enrique Iglesiashave been "crowned" with this title.

A diva is a female opera singer, but now the term also refers to a popular female performer of non-operatic works. The term was originally used to describe a woman of rare, outstanding talent. The term derives from an ancient Italian word meaning "goddess", which, in turn derives from the feminine form of a Latin word divus, meaning "divine one".
this cricet battle between ICL and IPL is essential battle for money ...there is no cricket involved. This is the reason politicians like pawar and shukla are in it

I DO AGREE WITH YOU. BCCI AND ICC MUST NOT DEPRIVE US ( THE CRICKET LOVERS) FROM WATCHING SUCH EXCITING EVENTS. LET "IPL" THRIVE. BUT AT THE SAME TIME LET US ENJOY "ICL" TOO AND LET THE BOTH THE CRICKETERS AND CRICKET LOVERS ENJOY THE BENEFITS. BOTH "ICC" AND "BCCI" SHOULD REMEMBER THAT BECAUSE OF WE CRICKET LOVERS AND WATCHERS THEY ARE SURVIVING ON, WITH HUGE AMOUNT OF EARNINGS.
