Are IPL, ICL good or bad for cricket?
There is an excellent article regarding this I urge u all to read, here is the link:
http://content-usa.cricinfo.com/maga...ry/340430.html
Quote:
Does the ICL poach talent away from international cricket? If so, how that is the case we know not. The ICL's contracts state that international cricket takes priority over the league. Pakistan argues it is not fair to have players playing in the ICL over domestic cricket. That is fair enough
But rash as prophecies might be, here's a dead cert: when the IPL calendar potentially moves forward next year to avoid a clash with the English county season, possibly eating into Pakistan's domestic schedule, Pakistan will not have a problem if a player - particularly a big name - wants to skip matches for Sindh at Rs 25,000 a month, and instead go to Delhi for US$25,000 a week.
And what little substance remains in the argument vanishes when you consider Nottinghamshire's plight. They have just signed on David Hussey for two years but he has also signed with Kolkata in the IPL, and what takes priority, according to the coach, Mick Newell, is uncertain. No action is proposed against Hussey, yet Shane Bond, Rana Naved-ul-Hasan and Mushtaq Ahmed, who are in similar situations, except that they have ICL contracts, are likely to be forced out of county cricket by their own boards.

The BCCI is the only board to benefit financially from the IPL and it is the only board to stand to lose if the ICL thrives. Not anyone else, just the BCCI, above the doors of which must now be placed the placard "Power without responsibility" - nothing captures this attitude more than Lalit Modi's remarks damning county cricket's future. This is the insanity of it, that a TV-rights tangle in an overcharged, loud, brash industry is threatening relations between players and boards, players' livelihoods and domestic cricket around the world.

I belive both IPL and ICL will hurt cricket in long run, We have T20 wc and can mange less ODI and more T20 during the tours, setting aside a schedule for IPL is the worst thing. At the least if u gonna carry on with IPL, then ICL should be given some leeaway, if a person choose to plat for ICL then all cricket boards have right to not pick that player in thier national squad, but the players should be allowed to play in domestic cricket and if they play for county. What you think Share ur thoughts and vote

Re: Are IPL, ICL good or bad for cricket?
i think its good for cricket because instead of playing domestic cricket with local players, ipl/icl gives opportunity for players to earn as well as practice with other international players and local Indians which is specially good for India and also it is good for international players from other teams but bad for their country's local players and board

But then how u gonna get the new players in, as it gonna keep cutting in domestic cricket and all attention will divert to IPL, in pak a players get paid Rs. 25, 000 per month for domestic season, while he can make $25000 in ICL or IPL. Forget abt money. Since IPL already cutting in county and other domestic season where will they get domestic cricketers? SO how can IPL and ICL be good 4 cricket?

If its bad for cricket then sooner or later gonna be bad for players, as ppl will loose interest n no revenue, Once u get use to of T20 u have to be extremely fit, ppl carrer will suffer, injuries will cause them to loose T20 position, since they get use to of T20, the Test playing will suffer and players will loose thier posituon in national teams. ergo wats bad for crickett bad for players and boards.

Re: Are IPL, ICL good or bad for cricket?
exactly..its hard to change moods...you are out their trashing everyone..next series you playing in a test match on deadly wkt..then no one will be able to handle that...so less t20 (only world cup and myabe a match a series) is the way to go
