- To attract a minimum amount of viewers from other cricket playing countries.
- To make sure that all the players are properly paid as per their contracts
- To make sure that the domestic players with very little chance to don the blue ever can earn some extra bucks.
- To create city based rivalries much like soccer leagues.

Agree 100%. IPL has become a goliath. And BPL has only managed to copy IPL on a superficial level, rather than focus on the management and business side of it. If you want to compete with Goliath, don't just put something together and call yourself Boliath. Be different, be unique, become David.
