Its here, The Chat-Pat cricket or you can call it T20 in form of Orissa premier league.Now Its going to be a serious entertainment and.................[Pause]. Hallo have any body have ever seen a cricket game beyond 25 over being organised by OCA . Then what the hell is OPL all about ! Just a new media fancy name or a sick mimic to show we are doing nothing.For me, Is there any thing beyond rock bottom,if yes then we are going to witness it in the Orissa Cricket.When IPL give many domestic cricketers limelight, why there is not a single boy from Orissa!No body to blame except the people managing cricket for Orissa.Why IPL is flooded with so many players from Tamilnadu or Mumbai! Give a close look, they play real cricket that is the longer format in schools,colleges,universities and of-course in club level where as we play 20-20 all the way. Australia won 3 world cups with the tag of best test team and India repeated the same.The best scorers of IPL is also the highest scorer in test. Definitely OCA's 1.5cr in 10 years is no match for BCCI with 2000cr from which OCA share is roughly 60cr.The logic works same way on Orissa players also. So it would have been good if we have gone for a longer format league than 20-20 as we need good cricket to entertain us not otherwise.
If I predict the winner then scammer companies have a way to show expenditure in their balance sheet to evade Tax, organizers with pocketful money,Media with some content to show or write and of-course more rash cricket which we are playing from long.As we are in a age when media is only decider irrespective of what is the result so nobody can stop the success of OPL and their organizers.
Sadly in end only cricket will suffer.
