stupid schedule
by Sayandeep on May 12, 2008 12:58 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

when the chances are high of teams finishing on the same points after the league phase and the semi finalists being decided thru net run rate...how can the IPL committee schedule the matches in such a terrible manner...where for example, after the KKR's last match is over Mumbai indians will still have 2 more games to play for...
its a league format and as we have seen last sunday in EPL...all 20 teams played together at the same time, as it was the final match of the season.
I understand that there are television coverage issues related to it...but if all other leagues in the world can manage it...y cant bcci?

Kya Sayandeep Baba ... Kuch kaam nahi hai kya?? Any team ...not only KKR have to play out of their skin to prove their mettle... all team have to still play a total 14 matches... and still if they won identical points.... Run rate have to come in play .....
