ICL 10th TEAM: LANKAN LIONS

Perera might have had a decent chance. While I don't rate him, he might have been SL's 3rd best left arm seamer...

Although I'd always have Maharoof, Malinga, Fernando, and Prasad ahead of him, he didn't seem like the worse back up option.

I await the stats to prove me wrong, since I might be :p

I think the point MacLovin is saying is that prehaps there should be a better word than "rebel"

By definition, yes, the ICL is a rebel league. But I think the word rebel has a negative connotation, which might be the problem. Prehaps one could say a "2nd" league? :p

Thank you.

Dont Call ICL rebel! its way better then stupid IPL! and IPL stole the idea from ICL. Plus, the IPL owners BCCI giving ICL a bad name. paying ICC to not to make it official so more ppl will watch IPL! and thats not fair. i am sure pretty soon ICL would get permission from ICC, if they keep on taking players like this. i hope IPL dies mean while.

Whether or not the ICC is right in this case is irrelevant, as they've made a ruling that effectively makes the ICL a rebel league, as it isn't endorsed by the ruling body of cricket.

Well he's 31 and can barely hold the bat the right way, so there's a couple of things going against him for a start. Combined with the fact he's had very limited success at either Test or ODI level, then I think it's fair to say he wasn't very good.

See "Mate" i never called IPL stupid for "that" reason, hell! i never called IPL stupid, i said more like "i SUPPORTED ICL for picking Bangladeshis, making Dhaka Worriors"...

and we all know why they did that...but still
 
The IPL did copy off the success formula of the ICL, no doubt about that.

Also the first referral system was used in the ICL 20s World Series.

The ICC just copied the rules and put it in the SL v Ind series.
 
IPL and ICL both are destroying International Cricket. ICL is screwing more because, Player like Asif when get tested possitive they know nothing to fear ICL is there for earning a good money. I think for the spirit of game ICL should also ban these players from playing in their league. No doubt IPL stole the idea from ICL but they are executing it in a much better way. According to me Bangladeshi players really dont deserve the ramp of IPL except few, like Razzak who got into BRC. Its not like that only Bangladeshi got avoided from being in IPL its mainly who are deserevd to be in this league and quality players. Similarly only Taibu got call from Zimbabwe as we know he is a very good player. Overall both are ruining the international Cricket.

Why / how are the IPL executing it better?

Too many cheerleaders for my liking in the IPL - I want to watch the cricket. If I want to watch naked girls, I will go find a porn site. Simple.

I say that the IPL should be abolished and the "retired stars" like Lara and Inzamam should be able to join the ICL with young upcoming Indian players.

They did copy IPL but at least ICL have a 50 over league + they are planning to make a big International tourney with 4 more clubs (Sydney,London,Auckland, ??).

And IPL can't be that innovative, it will just suck forever with its T20.I find county cricket and Twenty20 big bash more entertaining than these so called billionaire league.
