Lastly, how much do you expect this XI to change come the end of the season?
no changes 😛
My IPL XI at the halfway stage
Will be working on a new article for the World Cup as i did not write much on it in this one. I hope the reasons about the IPL were clear and not vague like the thing i said about my opinion of the world cup in the end. Cheers 😊
Why a ten-team expanded IPL won't be good for viewership
Yes your assumption about me being indian was correct and i’d love to see my country playing the biggest world event in every sport possible. And the indian football team isnt the best, and comparing it to minnows in cricket was fair.
But comparing the FIFA World Cup to the ICC CWC is definitely not a fair match in any way. There’s 32 teams in the fifa wc which is far more than cricket. The qualification criteria also differ greatly for both the events.
I do realise my mistake in the end of the article where i stated my opinion on the world cup without any reasons. The article was supposed to be only for the expanded IPL and i tried to use the world cup as an analogy which did not work as i thought it would.
Thats why i’ll be writing another one specifically for the world cup and also discussing the ODI Super League. Thanks 😊

Thanks! That really does sound interesting as it would even add value to matches which are usually considered a dead rubber. Only thing I’m confused about is because it’s a 2nd tier competition, will the quality of players be as good as the main league or would it have more domestic players and international players who may not have represented their country yet?

Thanks! The idea really does sound interesting and would even make the games between eliminated teams interesting as they’d look to avoid relegation. One question, as this is a 2nd tier would the quality of players be as good as the main league or would it have more domestic talent and maybe internationals who haven’t played for their country yet?

Totally agree with this. It is wrong to blame the government for “neglect” when you came here by your own choice for, most likely, a monetary reason. Prioritising the safety of the entire nation instead of favouring a few cricketers and commentators (who went to India knowing all the risks, by their own choice) is something which should serve as an example for other governments as well.
The Indian Premier League should be cancelled
