T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

My personal opinion is that CSK should have given opportunities to the younger players instead of this oldie.

It is a private cricket club and their money and they can do anything with their money  , as mentioned earlier CSK has a lot of spinners in the team but they lack proper batsman and they should have picked a proper batsman as the team is filled with bowlers i think, what ever it is if Piyush Chawla is not performing then he will be warming the bench and if he gets money doing that then it is his lucky draw  .

Reminds me of what happened to Varun Chakravarthy in IPL 2019. Kings XI Punjab picked him for a massive $1.17 million, and he played just one match in IPL 2019 (in which Sunil Narine scored a massive 25 runs of his first over). He didn't played the rest of the matches due to an injury. But since he played that match against the KKR, he received the entire contract amount ($1.17 million). This year also he was quite lucky. KKR picked him for $560,000 million. Sometimes the player auction in IPL can be very difficult to comprehend.

Yes bro they have give chance to any young talent opening batsman because there are so many players performing well in domestic T20 leagues. Maybe Dhoni will feel it if top order  batting lineup fail.

I have not seen the contracts, what if a player is purchased for a huge amount and they were unable to play the season because of injury, will they be getting paid, i doubt that will happen, but if a player is selected and if they are not selected for a match then that is not the issue of the player and hence he will be eligible to get the entire payment. If the kids are getting paid, it is good for them as it is a small window to make money with sport.

Someone please correct me if I am wrong. As far as I know, all of the players contracted to various IPL franchises are insured for the season. In case they miss out due to injury, then their insurance is going to cover that. So even if an IPL player doesn't play a single game due to injury, he will be receiving the entire amount from the insurance company. For example, Mitchell Starc missed IPL 2019 due to fracture of his right tibial bone. Kolkata Knight Riders cancelled his $1.8 million contract, but he received a compensation of $1.53 million from the insurance provider (Starc had paid a premium of $97,920 for the insurance coverage).

Yes, you are correct all IPL players are covered under Insurance scheme for injuries and the insurance also covers event cancellation due to rain. The key risks covered are event cancellation, personal accident and medical insurance policy for players and loss of player fees due to injury or illness.

Therefore the franchise never incur any loss under such circumstances.

There seems to be some controversy going on with the Big Bash League (BBL) in Australia. Kevin Roberts (CEO of Cricket Australia) decided to turn down a lucrative offer from a betting company for BBL sponsorship. The reason given was that BBL is a "family focused" tournament and betting firms have no place there. I would agree.... but at the same time, someone need to remind Mr. Roberts that Cricket Australia has a an existing agreement with Bet365, which happens to be one of the largest betting firms in the world. Is he saying that such companies are allowed for test and ODI matches, but not for T20 matches? Something is not right here.

The team lineup is so good that it can give any youngster chance in every match as they have few good players and due to their experience they cannot only win the match but also give crucial learning’s to any new player who joins the team .

I wonder which company is willing to take those kind of risky insurance, as a sports person you are bound to get injured and i would like to see their balance sheet after the IPL  . Every tournament there are injured players and knowing these risk if a company is willing to take these risk, it is great to know which  company is willing to take these risk.

Its not new in many sports they are doing work for players and giving some good amount as few years back I read Legendary Michael Schumacher was paid in millions $ for his injury in Europe and USA there are many Insurance companies doing this business.

An insurance company that accepts sports insurance does know the risk involved and if it is a sports like F1 then the risks are much higher and the premium is not like they insure for normal population but the difference here with Michael Schumacher is that he was retired and he does have a health insurance and that is why he was covered.

Well.. they are not handing out the insurance for free. For example, for a coverage of $1.53 million (spanning over two months during the IPL 2019 season), Mitchell Starc had to pay almost $100K as premium. And even after that, the insurance provider refused to pay compensation for the terminated IPL contract. Starc was injured during the test match against South Africa, and the insurance policy had exclusion for old injuries (i.e it covered injuries sustained during the IPL season only).

Are those international players going to agree on playing all those matches in Pakistan?

If foreign players are willing to play the PSL in Pakistan then they would not have an excuse to avoid touring them and it is an interesting phase for Pakistan cricket as they should conduct all the matches in Pakistan if they want to revive cricket and if they have a clear picture then the players can decide whether they want to participate in the tournament or not, hence it will be a make or break situation for Pakistan cricket.

This is really a welcome step in the Pakistan for its cricket and the audience. Also many new players in Pakistan will get chance to play and will get an exposure playing to other players as well. Audiences will also watching match in their home country which they have being missing.

I think Sri Lanka's recent tour is enough of proof-of-being-secure. It should be ICC's responsibility now to ensure that no team "denies" the tour; any team refusing to home-tour the country should get their matches considered as forfeited.

One series is more than enough to access the security of a country, the Sri Lankan cricket board forced the players to play in the series and i am really impressed that they were willing to risk the team even though the attack was against them and do you really think that the rest of the players will come aboard and play in Pakistan, i can only speculate but we will know if the Pakistan cricket board conducts the PSL solely in Pakistan and how many non Asian players are willing to play.

It is a good decision by the cricket board when they are trying to attract cricket back to the country but as everyone said how the foreign players view this decision is a big factor and if these players take a decision not to participate in the upcoming PSL then the tournament will be in trouble, lets see how the players who used to participate in the tournament view this decision to conduct the entire match in Pakistan.
