This season has once again exposed the gulf between the domestic T20 league and the IPL. The same goes for under-19 boys who are suddenly getting more exposure in the men's game. Of course, there are always exceptions, but the vast majority who had high expectations and spent billions of rupees were disappointed.
This is not surprising as there is a huge difference in both batting and bowling standards in the domestic T20 league, U-19 cricket and IPL. Certainly some of these boys, with a little more experience, could become good players who can compete in the IPL. That said, giving billions of rupees to these uncapped players will likely slow down their career progression significantly as the focus will suddenly shift.
It's understandable that young players who have never experienced such wealth would be drawn to the glitz, glamor and accessories that come with sudden wealth. Having a family to help keep their feet on the ground can lift boys who might otherwise fall over a few years later and help them reach their potential.
One of the reasons why I have been advocating for a salary cap for uncapped players is primarily because of players who suddenly find fame and fame at the junior level, but then go astray and lose out to Indian cricket. This is because there were so many promising players. Again, if we compare what a Ranji Trophy player can earn, even if he plays a full season of 35 days or more and does not play an IPL, in the end an uncapped IPL player will earn 14-16 days. This is just a fraction of the winnings you can win by playing. cricket. The BCCI is considering increasing the playing fees for the Ranji Trophy and domestic cricket, which is great news, but as I said, no matter how well they do in the Ranji Trophy or domestic cricket, the IPL I still know that it will be affected by one or two performances. It is the shortest route to India Cap.
This year, the IPL has sparked quite a debate from some captains and coaches of the franchises about impact players and DRS for wide balls and bouncers. This will definitely be a topic of discussion for the BCCI and the IPL Management Committee. Council ahead of the mega auction later this year. A thrilling last-ball finish in the match between Sunrisers Hyderabad and Rajasthan Royals led to a batsman being declared LBW and an inquiry being sought. The moment this happened, the ball was dead, and even if the ball hit the boundary line, no points would be scored. This loophole can be exploited by many astute captains and coaches who protect runs, especially in the final over. This is also debatable, but it is almost certain that the ICC will not be able to implement it in the subsequent T20 World Cup. The issue could certainly be discussed at the ICC Cricket Committee meeting, which is likely to be held during the T20 World Cup to be held in the US or West Indies.
If this law has to be referred to the MCC, it would be much better to bring in former players who played in the IPL and other T20 leagues around the world for experience. The MCC enacts the law, which is then followed by all cricket clubs, states and countries.
Therefore, the committee that has the greatest influence on the laws of the game must include people with experience of playing the game at the highest level, and must primarily be from a variety of countries, not just England. It doesn't have to be. I am now listing the MCC Law Committee. I'm sure they're all perfectly capable, but apart from former umpires Sundaram Ravi and Simon Taufel from India, none of them appear to have any international experience. Here is the list:
Alan Fordham (Chairman)
deborah burns
bob hampshire
Lieutenant Colonel David Jukes
paul mcmahon
Claire Polosak
Sundaram Ravi
Surendiran Shanmugam
Simon Taufel
Readers, do you think recently retired former Test players from other countries should be included or not?
