Do you think that India are helping kill the game?

[G.I.Joe]

The BCCI had plans to organize a corporate ODI tournament way back. It took the WC win and the ICL to fast track it and make it a T20 league instead.

 

[Sir Alex]

So?.

So, BCCI which is spreading cricket among 80% of cricket following population is doing a job in terms of scale unprecedented in history of cricket. No board has ever made or spent the amount of money on cricket that BCCI is doing.

In past debates & research i heard the IPL franchise was being formulated by former BCCI head Jagmohan Dalmiya (spell check) & Modu before the T20 WC in 2007.

Yeah, but that remained there as an idea. India was vehemently opposing T20 world cup when it was mooted, you know?

In India probably. Not around to the other cricket nations.

well, spending in India itself is such a huge amount and is not comparable to what other nations are doing. And with the IPL and champions league they are actually contributing to the coffers of other nations as well.
