The

Apparently resounding success of the Indian Premier League, barely past the halfway mark of its first season, has seen the already loose rules and regulations being twisted and turned to suit the franchise owners, who are calling the shots.

IPL Paisa Vasool Index

The tournament was launched in a knee-jerk manner in order to crush the breakaway Indian Cricket League at its nascent stage. It may have succeeded in doing just that. But the long-term implications of the IPL taking off so early with the paying public are ominous for the future of world and Indian cricket. Just study the signals being given off by IPL commissioner Lalit Modi. The salary cap per team of $5 million imposed on the franchises for the first season was hotly contested by the owners. Now they have got their way and Modi has been boasting to the foreign media how cricketers next season could end up being the highest-paid sportsmen in the world. While Dhoni landed the largest contact this season, of $1.5 million, Australia's cricketers are reporting this could zoom up to $15 million next year. The resulting explosion in salaries means the vast majority of international cricketers will simply walk away from their national teams.

How the captains are faring

It is already happening with the sudden retirements of a spate of players and polls of Australian and English cricketers have revealed alarming results -- the IPL (and ICL, while it lasts) is now the priority for a significant number. Even this season, with the salary cap in place, there were murmurs of protest among Australian, West Indian and New Zealand players, who had to leave the IPL early on for national duty. No doubt some of them would have been happier not to get selected for their country so that they could stay on and make hay in the IPL.

The temptation will be even greater for both players and coaches to ditch their nations once the cap goes. Already New Zealand coach John Bracewell has indicated he will soon step down with an eye on the IPL. And India's grassroots cricket structure is rapidly falling apart. Which child will nurture dreams any more of playing for India when he can get a packet parading his skills in the IPL? Modi's loud noises of a player requiring an NOC (No Objection Certificate) from his national association in order to play in the IPL will be quickly forgotten next year, mark my words. The result will be a total disintegration of the world cricket structure as we know it. The farce surrounding banned Pakistan fast bowler Shoaib Akhtar's [Images] sudden appearance in the IPL despite his ban is a sign of things to come. It is pretty obvious that the BCCI/IPL authorities, with all their financial clout, put pressure on the PCB (Pakistan Cricket Board) to release him this season. National cricket associations around the world and the ICC [Images] as well will stand helpless before the money power of the IPL if it becomes successful and a time will come when the number of franchise teams will start growing from the current eight. In that probable scenario, the six-week window which the IPL is asking/demanding from the ICC will also grow till the international cricket calendar set by the ICC will cease to exist or even matter. Now we are being informed via Shane Warne [Images] that the cap of four foreign players in the playing XI of each franchise is also likely to be lifted next season. All this pious talk of the IPL being beneficial to young Indian cricketers will therefore go up in smoke, once again on the demand of the franchise owners. There has also been the farcical situation in the IPL where umpires' and Match Referees' actions are being called into question. So who will police the police? That is not all. A Chennai newspaper has questioned the credibility of the drug testing procedures of the IPL. This is a serious issue that needs explaining by their head honchos. The biggest danger to the league though is the spectre of match-fixing. And it is a daily from New Delhi that has exposed the presence of a top Delhi District Cricket Association (DDCA) official sitting in the Delhi Daredevils dressing room during Thursday's match at the Kotla, busy talking on his cell phone. The man in question is a well known bookie in the Capital. The ICC made it clear that the IPL is a domestic tournament and their Anti-Corruption and Security Unit (ACSU) officers would not be present.

Team dressing rooms are a no-go area during international matches for all but players and support staff, such as coaches and physios. The dressing room during the IPL tournament is no longer off limits though with franchise owners, their staffers and assorted hangers-on enjoying open access, much to the consternation of the players. It is also rapidly beginning to sink in for them that being owned by someone rich and powerful can be a humiliating business if things don't click. The IPL is fast becoming a law unto itself, its backers, drunk on power, money and fame. A leading national daily has exposed the nexus between the top brass of the IPL and the BCCI and various IPL franchises. When the commissioner of the IPL has been revealed to have family links with two of the teams and two top BCCI officials have team connections as well, is it not obvious now that the whole exercise has become a vehicle for the personal aggrandisement of a favoured few at the expense of cricket as we have known and loved it for over a century? It's interesting to look back at the IPL player auction in February 2008 and see if there are some lessons to learn from an event that shook the cricketing fraternity. These are random thoughts, and appearing in a random order, but influenced by our paisa vasool analysis. The idea of an 'icon' player didn't work. The icon captain was expected to reinforce local loyalty to the team, but apparently that wasn't necessary, except perhaps with Sourav Ganguly [Images] and Kolkata Knight Riders. When asked to lead the Chennai team, M S Dhoni [Images] from Ranchi didn't "mind it" at all; poor dear Rahul Dravid [Images], on the other hand, has barely smiled after assuming Bangalore's icon position. The icon classification forced franchise owners to typically hold back 20-25% of the amount admissible (US$ 5 million) for just one player... but no player can really be worth so much. This becomes evident when we look at the PVI of icon players. Most have a PVI of around 3000, except Virender Sehwag [Images] who is below 1500 and Sachin Tendulkar [Images] who is well above 3000. It was unwise to pay too much for single cricketing skills. Pure bowlers and pure batsmen are very unlikely to offer good returns if they are paid more than $500,000 (at 2008 rates). Pure bowler Ishant Sharma ($950,000) currently has a PVI of 5557. Even R P Singh ($875,000), who's at the moment wearing the purple cap with 15 wickets, has a PVI of 2841. Pure batsman Robin Uthappa ($800,000) has a PVI of 2484, Mohammed Kaif and Manoj Tiwary have PVIs respectively of 6181 and 7114. It is of course possible for single skill cricketers to have sufficiently low PVIs; but that needs exceptional performance. IPL's best batsman, Gautam Gambhir [Images]

($725,000), has a PVI of 1145 although he offers only one skill. Rohit Sharma ($750,000) has a PVI of 1491. Pure bowler S Sreesanth [Images] ($625,000), with his 13 wickets - and all those tears - has a reasonable PVI of 2210. Indian players cost more than foreign players for comparable skills. Why would one pay Yusuf Pathan $550,000 and Matthew Hayden [Images] only $375,000? This is puzzling till one realizes that every team must have seven Indian players. India probably has 20 top-notch T20 players, and there are eight teams competing for this scarce resource! So Indians naturally cost more. Exactly the opposite argument works for foreign players: fewer foreign players are required, and there is a larger pool to choose from. Wicket-keepers are not so valuable in T20. In the last decade, coinciding with the explosive appearance of Adam Gilchrist [Images], it has become fashionable to say that wicket-keepers too are 'all-rounders'. In test matches, and even in ODI cricket, a good wicket-keeper batsman indeed allows the team to include an extra bowler or batsman. But in T20 cricket, the wicket-keeper's role - and value - is vastly diminished; that's why we've seen so many irregulars donning the gloves in the IPL. At the IPL auction, wicketkeepers commanded higher prices - perhaps undeservedly. M S Dhoni ($1,500,000) has a PVI of 3238, Dinesh Karthik [Images] ($525,000) is 3280, Kumar Sangakkara ($700,000) is 1861, Mark Boucher [Images] ($450,000)'s PVI is 1636, and Adam Gilchrist ($700,000) is 1382. The message appears to be: forget their wicket-keeping, just pick them for their batting. Bowling all-rounders might be more valuable than batting all-rounders. The performance of two South African all-rounders illustrates this very well: Shaun Pollock [Images] ($550,000), a bowling all-rounder, has a PVI of 1126 while his compatriot Jacques Kallis [Images] ($900,000), a batting all-rounder, has a PVI of 4746. Shahid Afridi [Images] ($675,000) has a PVI of 1803 while his captain Shoaib Malik [Images] ($500,000) has a PVI of 4658. Irfan Pathan [Images] ($925,000) with a PVI of 1716 offers more value than Sourav Ganguly ($1,092,500) with a PVI of 2781. Sanath Jayasuriya ($975,000) is however a glaring exception with a PVI of 1353. Likely match-winners were paid more. Matches are won either by assembling a winning combination of talented, hard-working and consistent performers, or by explosive performers who overwhelm the opposition if it's their day. At the IPL auction, the potentially explosive match-winners fetched higher prices: M S Dhoni ($1,500,000), Yuvraj Singh [Images] ($1,063,750), Virender Sehwag ($833,750) and Robin Uthappa ($800,000) from India, Andrew Symonds [Images] ($1,350,000), Brett Lee [Images] ($900,000) and Adam Gilchrist ($700,000) from Australia, and Sanath Jayasuriya ($975,000), Chris Gayle ($800,000), Kumar Sangakkara ($700,000) and Shahid Afridi ($675,000). Only Jayasuriya, Gilchrist and Sehwag have so far single-handedly won matches for their teams. The PVI of most of these players is between 1500-2000 suggesting that gambling with such players must be done cautiously. But it still makes sense to gamble with at least one player... he might win you the big prize on the big day.

Young and fit all-rounders offer the greatest value. Shane Watson ($125,000), Dwayne Bravo [Images] ($100,000) and Farveez Maharoof ($225,000) have been the three most successful foreign all-rounders in the IPL with PVIs respectively of 138, 259 and 545. There haven't been too many young Indian all-rounders (although a lot of young bowlers have surfaced), but Laxmi Ratan Shukla and Abhishek Nayar, costing only about $30,000 but with PVIs of 102 and 113, certainly offer evidence in support of this hypothesis. Gamble on youth, and on Australians. The first 12-15 names on the list of players offering the best paisa vasool terms (lowest PVI) are of young Indians we had never heard of: Ashok Dinda, Manpreet Gony, Dhawal Kulkarni, Swapnil Asnodkar, Siddharth Trivedi, Ravindra Jadeja and Yo Mahesh. They have PVI values below 150 and have played wonderful supporting roles. It therefore certainly makes sense to scout the country for such virgin talent. Australian players dominated the auction and one can now appreciate the reasons. Australia has the machinery to nurture innate talent, and Australian players come in with a superlative work ethic. One of our analysis pieces on Rediff also confirmed that Australians have performed at least twice as well as cricketers from other foreign countries. The first IPL auction was mad, chaotic and amusing. But one suspects that the lessons learned in IPL 2008 will lead to more rational selections for IPL 2009. Two factors will have a major bearing next year: Will the cap of US$ 5 million be lifted, and allowed to become unequal? Will the number of foreign players in the playing 11 be increased from 4 to 5? One possibility that the IPL could consider is something that didn't work out in ODI cricket: allow teams of 12, with the proviso that only 7 Indians and 4 foreigners figure at any time in the playing 11 - this will offer a backdoor entry to that fifth foreign player.
