Frankly who bothers about ICL and ban on players from countries like Pakistan or Sri Lanka or even England to play domestic cricket. Forget retired players from non Indian countries. Talk about the current players from India who are playing in ICL. Even if the ban on them is lifted frankly speaking how many of them are good enough to play for India in near future ? And if there are not many then what difference does it make if the ban stays or ban goes off. T20 is not going to make the "young players" ready for longer version of the game.
Is ICL planning to do anything for first class cricket ? Teaching the young guns the nuisances of longer format ? Getting the benefits from players like Inzamam, Lara, Gillespie and Dev himself to the young players ? T20 isnt going to help the players in long run if ICL really wants to benefit this youngsters as it claims. Yes it can make them cash rich, but zero on experience.
I dont bother on knowing how many brownie points ICL or IPL scored over each other. To hell with that. Let me find out if ICL brings some value to the table to campaign for lifting the ban on rebel players. Till then let the ban remain. Frankly I dont care and dont give any hoots to what Attapattu got to say or any greed Tunga wants to have to get a pie out of IPL riches.
