Indian Cricket League’s second tournament of 20-20 cricket has begun but media seems to be not at all interested in reporting about it. Usually media get gung-ho about anything which is even remotely related to cricket but ICL seems to be completely ignored by the media – be it print or television. Print media is at all interested in publishing even scores of matches at are going on. They don’t have time or space for ICL while they have all the time and space for reporting even the auction process of IPL. Media devout their time showing meaningless promotion of IPL teams.
I wonder what could be the possible reason for this media behaviour. One possible reason that I could imagine is that IPL is associated with rich and famous people of the country while ICL is just concentrating on its work without going for big advert and publicity. Media is just feeding the publicity hungry people without giving importance to real work i.e matches are going on at ICL.
