IPL is a pure marketing gimmick, Lalit Modi & company are minting money in the name of Cricket . Sorry to say that we Indians are so obsessed with the English game that we forget our national game & other sports which a normal country patronesses. Shame on us, let us not become puppets of IPL (Lalit Modi) in the name of cricket.

Yes u r ryt , may other people understand soon.Manuplater..........U will soon see another Team or some of itz share sold to someone else @lalitmodi.His % fixed.Iski Topi Uskey Sarr.......
I cant understand for what reason Pinal Shah is in Mumbai Indian Team,Since every team has got a specialist wicket Keper-Batsman,MI has given chance to Pinal Shah ahead of Talented and Last year Proven Yogesh Takavale.Its Strange that Shah comes down the order at 9 or 10 th Place.Morever he seems to be very ordinary behind the wickets
I think its always easy for us to sit on a couch and find faults with the system. IPL is a wonderful move done by BCCI . Hats of to lalit modi for getting india on the global map of sports . It think we should appreciate their move rather than making a mockery of the concept

This was ICL concept BCCI just copied it, no great job done, only because BCCI was able to arm twist ICL it came out with flying colours...Money wins again...

Mumbai Indians will suffer the fate of SATYAM, and the shares may get delisted ... if their performance is any indication to go by. Better bracket them with KKR !!
Guys, be warned that this type of article is part of the hype that is being cleverly manipulated by the IPL to suck more money out of innocent and gullible public. The IPL has dangerous exposure being just a sporting event rather than a brick-and-mortar company. So, think hard before you invest in any IPL stocks.

IPL is following the same lines of soccer leagues..remember sometime back, soccer league companies were listed & people lost money in europe.. listing is a opportunity for the team owners to get thier money back
