IPL, basically an Indian event, seems to be slowly getting into the clutches of foreigners. Last edition had only one foreign captain but this edition has four in Warne, Mccullum, Gilchrist and Peterson. Almost all teams have foreign coaches and support staff. If there are no restrictions on number of foreign players in the playing XI, one can’t find an Indian face in the teams. Above all, IPL too has moved out of India. What next?
Tail piece
There was a news about IPL, which is a separate body, is evading taxes using loopholes in the law and that has the blessings of BCCI. I don’t know the technicalities of the issue and the genuineness of the news. But, this trend is troubling. The cash rich BCCI is setting a bad precedent.
