Lalit Modi being disbanded out of IPL is just a first step to clean the alleged mess thats gripped IPL. Another step probably could be to terminate the telecast rights which has a set of rumors of felicitation fees being paid to WSG from MSM (or vice versa). 80 million dollars of bribe or commission. How much pie was distributed to the middlemen including Mr Modi himself needs to be find out.
Whats more the IPL parties could be terminated too alongside kicking out the Bollywood and glamour quotient including the likes of Mandira Bedi. Its being said that MTv forced players to participate in IPL Nights to ensure high glam quotient. So if thats shown the door too, the game of cricket would be in focus rather than the sundry models and useless DJs making fun of player fitness.
The ongoing tax probe is not much optimistic as its being used by the government settle terms with the opposition and NCP. (Sharad Pawar is NCP chief, most influential in cricket in the country). Modi is alleged to be linked with Vasundhra Raje, ex Rajasthan CM (from BJP). So if taxmen find something in the probe, Cong managers wont leave any stone unturned to malign or unsettle the cricket in the country.
Later on Twiteroor would be restored, thats also a possibility.
Manohar has questioned if Shilpa Shetty and her mister are real stakeholders of RR. If he is true then its even more good. We would be spared her fake smile and her presence on the dugouts.
The IPL on field action might have ended but the off field action is far from being over. Political vendettas from madam and Pranab babu aided by quiet support from MMS, ICC president elect being cornered and murkier details being leaked out are going to be order of the day.
