Wake Up,BCCI!

The announcement of the creation of a parallel cricket league called the 'Indian Cricket League'by Essel Group is very interesting.If implemented smartly since there are many potholes that lie in its path of implementation,this concept would revolutionise Indian cricket.It will bring back focus and infuse life into Indian domestic cricket.The attention that we pay to the performance and profiles of our national cricketers will be reduced.I would even go the extent of saying that it would 'sophisticate' Indian domestic cricket and bring it in touch with 'modern realities' of the game.The development of the 'convoluted' Indian domestic cricket structure has been fairly stagnant over the past many years.The fact that international cricketers could also be playing just makes the idea even more exciting.Let's not compare this to the 70's'Kerry Packer'isation of international cricket as of now.Interesting times lie ahead for Indian cricket.
