Chennai IPL News

The latest in the Indian Premier League News is the growing concern that BCCI is simply steam rollering the rest of cricket world. Well, there are no opinions about it. BCCI is the richest cricketing board and one of the most powerful sports bodies in the world.

Srilanka, New Zealand, West Indies, Pakistan and Zimbabwe find themselves impoverished with domestic conflict in some and general lack of interest in the game in other countries rendering the boards in precarious position. At this juncture a cash-rich board like the BCCI has created a new buzz in the game with the Indian Premier League and Twenty20 format.

The new format has brought back the crowds and seizing the opportunity the BCCI is out to make the game even more popular using its clout it has contracted 80 world class players both playing and retired. With the immense clout that the BCCI has it could have more brazen in its display of power and wealth but to large extent they have acted with caution.

Of course in the recent Harbajan Singh controversy and Sydney Test they did step in and may be used some of their influence to get the decisions in their favor but the latest Indian Premier league news is that BCCI has hit the jackpot and may be transformed the game of cricket with their new launch and maybe saved the game from going out of fashion in many countries.
