Politics ruling Cricket, and ICL a welcome change in Indian Cricket

I like any other average cricket fan in India is perplexed by all the politics thats ruling Indian cricket. My belief was that cricket was a game and we play it out of passion for the game. But, in India its one of the most monopolistic markets. The monopoly who is ruling that is BCCI, which in turn is headed by politicians. They make millions in profit and still, the Indian domestic cricketers never used to enough money to lead even a middle class life in India. All the money awaits you if you make the cut to the national team and then you get all those advertisers run behind you. Following the legendary foot steps of Kerry Packer's World series cricket, Subhash Chandra(and his company) came forward with the idea of ICL-Indian Cricket League. Our very own BCCI who thinks the pot of honey is theirs suddenly jumps into action.(like a bear threatened with an intruder trying to steal its honey) Threatens all cricketers first that they are not going to ever play for India if they join ICL, got all the other cricket boards to follow suit (other hapless boards are minnows before the money power of BCCI and they have no option but to stand with BCCI). Even after all this drama kapil came up with an awesome list of players signed up for ICL!!! That was the deadliest blow to the ego of BCCI.

Now see what they does. Just like any monopoly in a market slashing prices heavily on a new competitor entering the market, BCCI announces 7-13 times increase in money paid at domestic level!!!! This shows the amount of super normal profits these dirty politicians and officials were holding onto themselves. This shows why a dirty battle between pawar and dalmiya took place. This shows much rightful money of the players were snatched away by BCCi. This explains the dreadful state of Indian cricket over the years, poor ground qualities, poor facilities for the paying spectators/avid indian cricket fans. Look at how these shameless creatures now getting ready to pay more to their players.

For all this we should than ICL and the people behind that. They didnt do it as a community service, but they just as Adam smith's theory of Invisible Hand, they have indirectly brought a fortune in the lives of every young budding cricketer in India. For that i salute them and hope every Indian cricket fan will support this "Liberalization" in the monopolistic Cricket market. Hopefully, these private players will soon improve the ground facilities to match global standards as these people make money by spending money. Not like BCCI or any lethargic government public sector company that tries to feed upon public's money. Personally i believe this is the beginning of a new era in Indian Cricket.
