Now Kapil is feeling that ICL is a Lala's board, who is just washing his hands in flowing ganga, he knows that BCCI is a authorised body by ICC and if player will play for BCCI then it means he will play for India, bcoz BCCI is a parental body, which runs Test Matchs and One day International also, which is not possible for ICL. Here ,it doesn't mean that IPL has no disadvantage, lot of problems r also in IPL , first Ishant is playing for kolkata, Bhajji is for Mumbai, how they will play against Delhi and Chandigarh, it is matter of question, i think every player shud play for his city or his state, also it is not fare to sell the players in Auction, players are not the saleable things, as stated by Rahul Dravid.

why should ICC only become governing body of cricket ? What they did to Mike Procter for his excessive and biased decision ? What they did to Symonds ?
Why you expect such a biased body only to control world cricket ?
Whats wrong if some other body like International Cricket League (ICL) controls world cricket ?
What you are going to loose if ICC loose its charm and ICL controls world cricket making cricket better and unbiased, also holding its charm as gentleman's game ?

Where was ICL when there was no money in Cricket,Where was ICL when cricketers was not so rich, no sponsership was there,Who came first in Cricket , ICC & BCCI OR ICL, there when Subhash Chandra saw that there is lot of money in Cricket and he can earn lot of money from it, he made ICL, also BCCI and ICC are not a one man show, these are the governing bodies, in BCCI, in every 2 yrs, there r elections for presidents, nobody is the owner of BCCI as in the case of ICL where only Subhash Chandra is the boss, owner of the whole body

@ Mahendra
why you think its not possible for ICL to run 50 over matches and test matches ? If u really following cricket and have any news about it, then only try to comment or debate in public blogs inspite of killing others time unnecessarily.
ICL has already successfully hosted 50 overs tournament, that also won by Chennai Superstars team. ICL also going to host 4day test matches (like in Ranji). ICL is only 1 year old.
If you have patience just wait and see instead of barking. else just mind your business. Stop bashing ICL.

Mr.Mahendra,
We agree with you that BCCI is the parent body for cricket in India. But how can they use the name of the country while they maintain that they are not a governmental body like any other sports body/. Reason out please.....????
