But football is not the only one to have followed IPL. Earlier this year, Mahesh Bhupathi , a former Indian tennis player and multiple Grand Slam winner in doubles, announced the creation of the International Premier Tennis League. The first cuvée will see 4 big cities of Asia to load at the beginning of December 2014 (Singapore, Bombay, Manila and Dubai)  Psl schedule and teams 2018 . A match format in a winning set with the presence of former players like Pete Sampras or André Agassi. The concept should hit hard and considering the amount of money spent  on attracting players like Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic or Maria Sharapova, it's best to be sure. If India is at the origin of these different initiatives, it is because the will to develop a market around the sport has taken a real scale in this country. The economic potential is enormous and the way to put India back on the map of world sport is all. In addition to cricket, football and tennis, the national badminto...

A growing interest for football

The economic success and buzz around IPL has inevitably attracted investors from all walks of life such as Rupert Murdoch, CEO of News Corp. who acquired the rights of ESPN India and focused its offer on cricket. In 2012, the Australian-American billionaire even got his hands on the digital distribution of the IPL. A colossal potential gain given the constant increase in the use of new media. After a deal with Google, the IPL has become the first sports event to be broadcast live on YouTube. This outward opening for cricket also allowed Indians to become aware of other sports. Especially in football. With the breakthrough of the middle class with televisions, digital tablets and smartphones, it has become much easier to follow European competitions. According to a poll by the TAM Media Research Institute, the average television audience for football matches has increased by 60% in the country between 2005 and 2009. Figures that have been confirmed by another survey of the institut...

nitiated by Lalit Modi , the former vice president of the Board of Control for Cricket in India ( BCCI ), the new championship quickly took the turn of the entertainment  Venue of PSL 2018 . The Twenty20 , a simplified form of play and innovative operation have been adopted and a new competition has emerged: the Indian Premier League. By limiting the duration of meetings to 3 hours, a much more television format (before, a match could spread over 4 days), the IPL was quickly ensured to capture the interest of television channels. "I was convinced that India needed a sports league similar to the NBA in the United States , confided at the time Lalit Modi. And I wanted to find a way to merge sport and business for the benefit of the sport. I believe we have actually created a global cricket entertainment product that will grow to the delight of fans and sponsors. " The sequel: 8 cities are selected to receive franchises before being auctioned. Exit the teams of Baroda, Ra...

India, the new country of the sport business

Image
A league of extraordinary gentlemen of the little yellow ball, a two-month private football championship animated by old glories of the round ball, a cricket league that weighs billions of dollars ... Taking inspiration from the North American model, India is developing a very lucrative sports market. The second most populous country in the world and undisputed leader in several sectors such as IT, India is a true figurehead among emerging countries. If there is one example to follow for many, the country is lagging behind at certain levels. Indeed, while it has so far only one individual gold medalist in its history at the Olympic Games, India can hardly be considered a great country in the world sports landscape.

There can beas conflicts of interest. A reform projec...

TWO WEIGHTS, TWO MEASURES

"IPL and T20 World Cup TV rights have been bought for $ 600 million by ESPN To broadcast the 'ashes' [series cricket game that opposes, every two years since 1882, the Australia and England] , the rights are around $ 2 or $ 3 million, the difference is just abysmal, but who benefits from all this money? " wonders Jarrod Kimber. This young English journalist, "cricket fan of all kinds " , is a co-author of The Death of Gentleman , a documentary denouncing the excessive commercialization of this sport . I do nothe explains. The difference between cricket and the T20 is a bit like track cycling and the Tour de France . At the velodrome, we go to shudder , while people follow the Great Loop as a soap opera with lots of stories and legends. Both can cohabit very well . Only in cricket, the difference in treatment and coverage is such that eventually the T20 could completely asphyxiate traditional cricket. This is already happening: the prime time is now monop...

Indians prefer bat and throwing effect "  Historically, India has always been strong at bat. The weak points were more on the throwing and hunting (the players responsible for recovering the ball when hit by the drummer). The Indians have progressed on the hunt and are now among the best. "Before the World Cup, the pitchers of the India team were very average. The prognosticators did not even see India in the semifinals. You have to know that the land is harder in Australia than in Asia. The ball bounces more and therefore promotes fast throws. Indian and Asian pitchers are more technical effect throwers. Surprisingly, the Indian pitchers have still excelled since the start of the competi...
