This decision by BCCI is like playing in the hands of ICL. We all know that cricinfo and rediff are the most likely places for anyone to look for cricket news. IPL may have its own agenda but see who is gaining :-) ICL !!
This is a good lesson to Internet Edition of Times of India, Cricinfo and rediff and ALL other internet and media channels who did not give proper & deserved coverage to the ICL.
It was a pity to see, while TOI online edition has created a complete seperate section for IPL, on contrast they don't even report ICL match results even as a headline on front page. Users need to search by going into sports section to see if there is any news on ICL latest match and there you can find the news and that too without photo. Like TOI, same biased approach was adopted by Cricinfo as well without giving ICL its due headline coverage for its matches.
Now I am happy to see all these media sites and channels have been tossed by IPL losers.
I don't understand if IPL does not recognizes ICL then why these media channels have to show a biased coverage which was almost nil? Shouldn't all these media channels and sites have a responsibility to give a fair treatment and coverage to everyone?
Nice to see that IPL have stabbed them while they all were trying to lick IPL's ass.

So long, our top batsman score runs with snail speed, we can neither win nor draw.. we can lose .

yes.. we both are same person.. one is typing from left hand other one is typing from right hand
This is the effect of the 2nd test match at Hyd. Pathetic display by the Indians and theres money involved in IPL than the Test match. 3 days the test got over with India ought to have the home-side advantage. Really sad for Indian cricket.
