The IPL virus has again gained the potential, its the season for the fever to spread again, look at the budget of the IPL project, millions of dollars for the players.When the whole world is in the grip of economic crisis, for them money is like blooming on trees just raise the hand and pluck thousands of dollars.
Why does it happens only with cricketers? what did the hockey players, football players, tennis players and badminton players do? are they not working hard to get name and fame for the country? why don't the government give equal respect name and fame to these players, or at least motivate them? Its some times our fault too.... we never even bother to watch any match apart from cricket.
I appreciate the Australian govt. where there is equal respect for all kind of sports, they have a national institution of sports where players are trained to face the international players in their respective field of interest, the players are respected as an Engineer from IIT in India.
I really dream of a day when the international community will think twice to send their players to face Indian players in what ever game it is.

i don't understand this thing. For everything we say "survival of the fittest". but when it comes to sports, we just start talking of equality and national game status. If india would have been so good at hockey, it would have gained supporters and funds would have followed. Just that it is not and cricket has become popular. Also India has been earning praises for its performance in cricket. What then is the logic to take out money from the game and divide it equally among all the games. Such kind of socialism has already dented into many of India's industry. Now it is up for denting India's sport.
