this was IPL supported by BCCI, and Kapil dev's one was ICL. Kapil Dev was not promoting IPL but ICL. may be u got confused.

Dude there are two such bodies:

1. ICL: The Indian Cricket League, it is so called a rebel body because it stood in strong competition with BCCI and other boards (effectively ICC). Kapil is part of it & all those playing in this league are not allowed to play in any international or domestic matches related to official boards. The add you saw in aj tak might be related to ICL.

IPL : Indian Premier League, set up by BCCI is a much more rich organization. The bid was for players playing in IPL for one year.

Hope it clears your confusion now.

Those playing in ICL otherwise also can't get selected for their national team.It was a grudge league, a crude attempt to black mail organised Cricket!

Hi,

Kapil is a pert of the Indian Cricket League (ICL) - sponsored by the Zee Group. IPL and ICL are rival leagues.

and nothing is happening with the IPL...so kapil is now taking part in events in promotion of ICL!!! thats amazing....

Then I guess kapil himself might become a part of this one only!!!
