T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

[JSRAW]

Top foreign players ( price tag in INR and USD), who attracted bidding war today. Morris looks expensive buy, rcb got scammed by MI in bidding
Good year for Pat Cummins and he's enjoying the moment. Let's see how many games he plays, he shouldn't follow Starc in this regard for starters.

What you mean by they sold for 775 lakhs , what decimal is this buddy, sorry for my ignorance. Guess it is a good price considering the recent performance of Hetmyer.

Shimron Hetmyer is sold to Delhi capitals for a million dollars which is around 7.75 crore in Indian rupees and it is a really huge amount , get used to the Indian numerical system if you are looking for the prices in the IPL  .

In my view he deserve this price becaause he is one of best rising stars in cricket world.

This is an example of how a single cricket match can change the fortunes of an individual. Do you really think that the Delhi Capitals would have made such an aggressive bid, if he hadn't made the 106-ball 139 during the Chennai ODI? 7.75 crore INR is equivalent of $1.1 million. And after the Indian income tax, he'll be getting somewhere around $770,000. Not too bad for a 22-year old, for a two month stint. It looks to me that the West Indies tour of India was perfectly timed for the IPL auctions.

Another important buy of the season is made by Rajasthan Royals on Yashasvi Jaiswal. One of the familiar face who in recent days gained the attention of every cricket fan. From big struggles for his daily food now he have got into the Ipl with a buying price of $330000.

I was not aware of Yashasvi Jaiswal and his past and he is a young talent and if he was selling paanipuris for a living and now he got the opportunity of a life time to change his life and his families life and IPL is a good platform for many upcoming players and hence i like the platform and if anyone can perform well then they will get the recognition it deserved.

Agreed, someway these games that are making millions to the owners were giving recognition to the people who are talented. Though it is termed big peoples league, the same is beneficial to common people too. Till date IPL could've changed the life of lot many people who starved for years for recognition even after achieving big things.

Cricket is now one of the premier career options in India. Three decades ago, even the national team members used to work part time. But now, the domestic cricketers get a package that allows them to concentrate on cricket full time. The fixed salary for a domestic match distributed by the BCCI is ₹35,000 (around $500) per match day. That means that the domestic cricketers get around ₹140,000 ($2,000) for a single Ranji trophy (4-day) match. And don't forget the fact that there are a total of 38 domestic first class teams in India, which means that somewhere around 500 individuals can be considered as professional cricketers in India.

This is a really cool career option and if you can get into a team then we can make a lot of money and $2000 per four day match is a huge salary for domestic matches and i am not sure how much the rest of the world pays their domestic players but if you play 30 odd matches per year then you have a decent pay scale even in developed countries and i guess it is a great pay scale than the average salary a professional gets.

I guess another of his fellow team mates Cottrel was also a wastage of above 8 crore rupee. He don't deserve such huge amount of money. He won't get a good time in IPL, I can bet for that. Maxwell as well have been over-priced. These guys are making money with the fame from the name.

I think the reason Sheldon Cottrell got a huge value is simply because of his personality in the ground where he gives a salute with every dismissal and he might be used for advertisement and i think if they are picked the teams have the ability to control what all advertisement they get and may be he is paid because of that value but Maxwell is a hard hitter of the ball and when he is in form he will clear any boundary.

If you start getting selected because of your personality then it will be a hard thing for the viewers as all the players will start their own character like we see in the UFC which is replicating the fake Wwe. I like seeing personalities in the cricket field, Andre Nell was a character as well as all the Aussie players who could have a verbal spar against their opponents in the field but if you incentive players for their character then it will create a huge problem.

These guys are regarded as T20 specialists and that's the reason why the franchises are spending huge amounts of money on them. The West Indian players in particular are highly sought after by the IPL franchisees and in case of both Hetmeyer and Cottrell, their good performances during the ongoing ODI series against India played a big role in attracting huge bids from the franchisees. The case of Maxwell is also similar. He is considered as someone who can consistently score at a strike rate greater than 200.

Three T20 leagues are ongoing right now - Big Bash League, Bangladesh Premier League and the Pokhara Premier League.

Sydney Thunder won the toss and elected to field against Adelaide Strikers in the BBL, and we will witness some solid action from Alex Carey and Phil Salt. They'll be up against the formidable Thunder spin trio of Chris Green/Arjun Nair/Jonathan Cook.

The BBL match between Khulna Tigers and Sylhet Thunder will get started in around half an hour. Rilee Rossouw and Mushfiqur Rahim are playing for KT, while Mosaddek Hossain and Ebadot Hossain are the stars from Sylhet Thunder.

I once told about the  Mzansi Super League here but no one look interested in that league and therefore we had no discussions about it. Although I was watching this  league actively but did not share anything here buz of lack of interest. I just want to inform you that today is the last day of the leqgue and the final is in progress at  Paarl between TS and PR.  AB de Villars is playing for TS and I hope they can win this one.

To put it honestly, nowadays too many franchise T20 leagues have been started and it is getting slightly repetitive with players such as Chris Gayle and Andre Russell appearing for 5-6 different franchises in a single year. We have the Pokhara Premier League (Nepal) and the Qatar T10 League ongoing now, apart from the Mzansi Super League. It is actually very tiring to keep track of all these leagues.

If you are a true cricket lover than you should follow all the leagues and watch all the matches. The ones you missed can be viewed later on you tube but ideally you should watch all the match in full Live. This shows our dedication and true love for the cricket.

Who in the world have the time to watch all the matches live and in full ? No one has this much spare time. Even people these days do not have time to sit 9 hrs in front of TV to watch the whole 100 overs ODI and you are saying to watch all the matches

LOL... completely agreed with what you posted. Here in India, now we have close to two dozen sports channels and therefore you can be assured that a minimum of 2-3 live cricket matches will be shown in TV at any given point of time. On top of that, there are other matches which are being live-streamed in YouTube. For my part, I hardly ever watch any tournament other than IPL and the BBL. I watch other leagues such as BPL and MSL only occasionally, as they don't have the same standard as IPL/BBL.

I too really wanted to follow the religion pretty close but time is not allowing me to follow my religion and that is the biggest problem, glad that you are having the time to watch every match and there is a time for everything when you are young and so enjoy the time you have right now because life becomes tough when you grow up  .

There are people who follow cricket as a religion who stream the matches in their mobile even when you are at the office, most of the time what i have seen is people from India watching the matches where India is playing and not the rest of the countries.

The interest is greater for matches involving India. But the audience base is so huge that the Indian viewership has emerged as one of the main revenue drivers for the foreign T20 franchise leagues, even when the Indian players are not playing. For the recently concluded Caribbean Premier League, there were more viewers in India than in the West Indies. This may not be true for the other leagues such as the BBL and the BPL, but the Indian cricket fans do contribute a lot to the revenues of other cricket boards around the world.

The cricket betting industry is very organized now and millions are being waged on relatively minor leagues such as the TNPL and the Pokhara Premier League. A few months back, I was really surprised to see a viewer count in excess of 10,000 for a match between Zimbabwe and the Netherlands. Then I realized that the vast majority of the viewers were from the Indian sub-continent, and they are watching these matches because they had wagered bets.

Well said unless person who does not have anything to do or does not want to do anything in life would only see the match ball by ball else people nowadays just take a glimpse or in between check the scores and go back again to their work.

As @Vishnu.Reang said the gambling industry is really huge and they will be taking a keen interest on all these matches, everyone might not be seeing all these matches but if we have an incentive to watch the matches then you will definitely watch all the matches, the gambling industry is huge and billions of dollars are wagging annually in legal gambling sites and just imagine the unregistered illegal gambling, so it is a huge industry and there will be people who will be making money watching these matches.
