IPL- A major success

The IPL extravaganza at its peak. Boy! it has become a mother of all prime time entertainment. Clock ticks at 8 O' Clock everybody is getting glued into TV to watch cricket- Prime time entertainment. All the hoopla! of IPL has lived up its expectation. This slam bang cricket is expected to make heavy impact as a global sports all over the world. After seeing the first match when Mc Cullum hit a blazing century & the crowd turnout at Chinnaswami Stadium at Bangalore, I feel this expectation of making it a global sports is going to be successful for sure. This is the tonic Cricket which required for a long time.
As far as the added flavor is concerned that is provided by none other than SRK. That guy has amazing enthusiasm for sports. I understand he is the owner of the franchisee so he need to be in the thick of things but to be a part of the cricket matches, promotions, almost every where related to Cricket these days, shows his commitment, not to forget he is a star in Bollywood & he has commitment for movies too.
With respect to actual cricket, I would say T20 has brought a totally different version of cricket. It seems hitting sixes are easier than making a child to take milk. Now opportunities are at galore for the young people who would want to be a cricket player.
For me IPL has brought lot of excitement & loving to watch players from different countries who are enjoying each others company. Surely this format is going to be sure shot success in future.
