IPL has been in news for both good and bad for last one month. Controversies around it have made more news than cricket this season. The controversies are giving credence to argument that the real matches in IPL are played outside the field. The stated objective of IPL- growth of cricket in the country.... seems to have lost out to the business interests which are thriving on the cricketing emotions of the people of our country. The talks of dubious deals, match fixing allegations, conflict of interest, etc etc are clear pointer towards the fact that people of the country are again being shortchanged. Government intervention is welcome but its efficacy in taking the issues to its logical conclusion is doubtful.
Its time we learn a lesson and not let our emotions (love for cricket) become fodder for some.....more next..
