IPL Controversy !

    On 19th January, 2010 Indian Premier League (IPL) began their activities for IPL edition III with the auction of sixty seven players from all the test playing countries plus some associates members of International Cricket Council (ICC),as only twelve slots left with all the franchisees’ to fill, that’s why it was expected that franchisee owners will eye and pick players which can become assets to their team and won’t run after name who may be famous but his availability during tournaments all matches’ are doubtful because of his commitment for his national team or security reasons stop him to play any game, thus IPL franchisees’ ignore and avoid to bid on Australian, England, South Africa, Sri Lanka and even Pakistani players as right now Pakistan is T20 Champion.
     In the evening after auction of players completed, it was believed that now teams will make strategies for IPL season III which is going to start from March 12 to April (Look for schedule of matches’ under IPL Season III blog dated 21st January),but from all the players which were available for auction and not picked by any team no reaction comes forward from them barring all the Pakistani players they start making noise of foul play in the IPL auction and were very vocal through media and despite they know IPL team own and run by Film fraternity and industrialists of India and Indian Premier league is purely a private and commercialise league and it has nothing to do with ICC but yes backed by Board of Control for Cricket in India(BCCI) and owners have every right to act and run their team as per their interest to get return on to their investments. Government and BCCI has not pass on directive relating to Pakistani players in the auction, but Pakistani players first started giving their reaction in media and yes in this process Indian electronics media are responsible to take mileage from others and become first to have Pakistani players views and reaction which give Pakistani Players platform to spew the venom the way they like against IPL auction. Had they not given importance then it would have been no more controversy as they are not the only which were ignored by IPL owners but almost every countries players were ignored, but once they express their views in media and it was commonly believe by them that they were not sold because IPL owners was under pressure to bypass them from Indian Government and politics and sport should not be mixed and sport can become source to eliminate bitterness among the citizen of both the countries and ignoring by IPL owners mean that they have snub Pakistani and certainly with this type of reaction one can imagine coming days store more uproar from there side. Next day news came that People of Pakistan were very furious the way IPL owners treated Pakistani players despite being T20 world champion some of them were best players and they deserved to be part of IPL season III. Then news came that Pakistani Cable operators took unanimous decision to boycott IPL matches and they will block IPL III. Gradually in next few days reaction comes from all the section of society of Pakistani from common men to Politicians. Politicians said India should be boycott in every manner and they stop the visit of their Election commission members whose visit were scheduled this week, their kabaddi team boycott India’s tour and people raising voices’ India should be responded on Tit for Tat pattern.
     Surprising and shocking to listen, read and see the reaction of every Pakistani and they should understand that IPL is a organisation of commercial people and their franchisee owners have paid money to buy their respective so they are not bound to happy and oblige foreigners but they are independent to take action and decision for growth and benefit of their respective team in every regard whether its picking players or playing eleven or appointment of coaches.
