okay, i said something like a champions league, but the answer isn't within the champions league....see the champions league implies that each major cricket nation has a domestic t2o league like the current ipl....where champions and/or runner ups from each domestic league plays in the champions league.....this is overkilling of this format...if at all feasible.....the answer lies within a single premier league of professional clubs from all test playing nations.....

I am sure you know the difference between england vs spain and liverpool vs real madrid....but both of these types of competitions are proven successful....if a kolkata vs delhi game can have audience, so can a dhaka vs delhi....

it seems someone like many others has been brain washed......the answer lies within the question: will cricket be a global game or an indian sport?

We already have a T20 league, and that is enough for the moment. We should concentrate to NCL and make them more competitive.

is it really just a fun game? if the professional cricketers were that naive, they wouldn't quit international career early to join just the fun...
i agree with you that our players need to develop their skills in the longer versions, but it's a concern at the moment as to what will be the future of the longer versions....so to survive in the international level, our players must learn how to play all formats...
