Ahmedabad is not a sporting city, it never has been. That’s why every time there’s a final played there, more than 50% crowd is from outside the city. There’s no sporting culture, vibe. Just making the largest stadium might bring you gate revenues but it doesn’t bring you support or success for India.

This was bound to happen I have been saying this for 2 decades. India will rule cricket. No one can stop it. They need to just get in line and wait for few handouts. Cricket was for hundreds of years dominated by the English and Australians. They took all the riches and handed down crumbs. Well the power of 1.5 billion people can not be ignored and should never be. Yes the players need not be afraid. You all will be all paid multiple times what your boards give you for a years work - IPL pays you multiple times that for not even a dozen games. Salaries by 2030 for top players globally will run into millions per game not season. The IPL window by default will increase from February in years to come



NEW: Pakistan cricketers are not being considered by the 4 Indian-owned teams in The Hundred, sources have told BBC Sport. We’ve seen messages in which an ECB official indicated to an agent that interest in his Pakistan players was limited to non-IPL sides. bbc.co.uk/sport/cricket/…
