What is being done for them. and all this shameless rich cricketers, what do they do in return for all the money they get, thanx to a cricket country nation. How much money and effort do they put back in looking after the poor people of our country. we are such a greedy senfish bunch of morons, and lets leave all the charity to angelia jolie and bill gates

why should aus, srilankan, paki, eng players look after INDIA when our players and board do nothing for the country?
The india cricket board is wasting millions on these players when im sure they would have signed up for a quater of the amount. Do people realise our money is going overseas?
I find it amazing that so many people (You guys should Jingoes) criticize this! What is wrong with this process? Players offer themselves...now it is up to the Franchisees to select whom they deem fit for their teams...and of course there are limits like max 10 players plus a $ limit of 2m USD. Millions of Indian are working outside India and what is wrong if a few foreigners want to work in India??!!
This a drama of the indian cricket and faltu IPL organiser to make money specifically to utilize to spend for politics through sharad pawar's political party
IT'S QUITE UNFORTUNATE THAT SUCH THINGS CAN HAPPEN IN INDIA, WHILE ON THE ONE SIDE WE HAVE ECONOMIC SLOWDOWN, PEOPLE LOSING JOBS, SUFFERINGS EVERYWHERE, ON THE OTHER SIDE WE HAVE BCCI IS ENJOYING BY HAPPILY SPENDING THE MONEY OF INFINITE VALUE, OF COURSE CO0NTROLLED BY POLITICIANS WHO HAS IMMENSE ILL-GOTTEN WEALTH. NOBODY CARES!! NO POLITICIANS WORTH THE SALT, INCL PM IS NOT WILLING TO QUESTION THEM?? IS IT LARGEST DEMOCRACY OR HYPOCRISY IS OF THE HIGHEST ORDER?? PEOPLE FIHT ON VARIOUS ISSUES, BUT THERE IS NO POLITICAL PARTY FIGHTING FOR PEOPLES GRIEVANCES?? ARE THEY REP OF PEOPLE, IT'S A GREAT SHAME ON INDIA, N IT'S UNFORTUNATE THAT WE'RE BORN IN THIS COUNTRY. WE ARE ALSO EQUALLY A FAILED STATE.

PPL of India have faced enough from these porkistan`s cowardiness. Pak players should not be allowed to play for the time being. ( I do agree players r innocent.....but the name pakistan is boiling in every patriatic Indian blood)
