hi friends.u must have noted that punter has always been against these T20 tournaments and he believed that these shorter formats will not help cricket.i agree with him wholeheartedly.u must have heard the news that the west indies players are threatening to ditch the england series for IPL.now what more can u ask?it takes about 45 days of an already tight schedueled cricketing year and the players are not getting much rest between tournaments and to compensate for these T20 matches,test matches has been reduced.now players r ditching intenrtional matches for this measly 45 days ,high praised,cricket unhelping money tournament.to be more plain,IPL JUST SUCKS

It is not damaging international cricket but it has already damaged.....the foolishness and utter lack of sensitivity shown by Lalit Modi and Company will be remembered....They can not cancel the IPL...what a shame and in spite of the fact that after the no confidence motion in last July..every educated Indians were aware of the fact that election will be held in April May and still these guys go ahead with their plans......
