Crick it

The ICC and BCCI are eyeing the new Indian Cricket League the way openers at this World Cup were giving Sri Lanka’s bowler Lasith Malinga the once-over. They don’t know if it’s is going to swing, sling, fly or bounce.
The biggest winners will be cricket-playing nations aspiring to be taken seriously. If players from the UAE, Canada, Ireland, Holland and Bangladesh, get to play against quality players from cricket’s elite nations in the ICL, they will improve and Australia’s dominance will eventually be challenged. That is the key to keeping cricket alive and spreading it across the world.
