IPL much bigger than BPL, says Tanvir

[kobiraaz]

They can not afford to have Saurav in the league

they offered sourav blank check! I mean they wanted him at any cost! Sourav asked BCCI for permission. But Bcci didn't allow any indian player in bpl fearing trp rise in india specially west bengal

BTW BPL is successful, heard BPL already earned more than they expected at the beginning...

That is silly. Those players who are not in Australia and not playing domestic fixtures should have been freed to play BPL, they would have gained some international experience and made some money in the bargain. Maybe Saurav had a commentating contract which came in the way. I for one wanted to see him play again. BD grounds would have suited him as they are similar to Eden Gardens.

Nope . A local kolkata paper Anandabazar reported that Saurav wanted to play but was not allowed. Btw i also wanted to see him playing. Once I was indian team supporter when Dada was captain....

Of-course IPL is bigger than BPL.

What's the point of opening a thread over this?

BCCI reason was for not allowing indians to play in ipl was stated as "clash with domestic fixture". BTW, dravid, pathan was also supposed to play in bpl.

Btw mods move this to cricket section

But as ur one of patriot said BPL gave him blank check. So even a history in Indian cricket is too much value for BPL.

Are you a joke? Compare the stats and then comment.More research please. Apart from that what do you think if IPL and BpL will conduct at the same time what will be your so called big players chose.I know you know the answer.
