This is only a time where it is underrated. Once we start WIPL may be for a year or so it would not get a good response but definitely in coming times we will see a good response and if it done by India where people are crazy of cricket and if get some good support from celebrity as well people will come to see them and surely we will have a packed stadium as well. Only a matter of time before it starts getting to pick up.

Being an Indian, I am a bit more skeptical about the future of the WIPL. Even matches involving the national women's team doesn't get a good response within India. In Australia, the women have a lot of interest in sports and a lot of them follow women players such as Ellyse Perry. But here in India, women are more interested in TV sops and shopping, rather than in sports. Among my female friends, there are only a very few cricket fans.

But that doesn't mean that BCCI can ignore the women players. They need to start the WIPL, latest by 2021.

Its worth giving a shot IMO, earlier the better. I am also not sure about the viewers we would get but its worth giving a shot. People here love cricket so if the tournament falls off from or doesn't clashes on with gents cricket team schedule, I think it should be fine.

BCCI can try with one season and see how much successful it gets.

India is big country and they have very good media as well so they can give this a try as its really could be game changer for them as its happen in IPL now Indian team is producing so many talented guys this can also bring many women those will do very good for their national team may this is not profitable as most of believe but still its need a good chance from BCCI with 6 teams is also good.

Initially as said it would take couple of years for people to start and cheering the teams and come in stadium. BCCI would have to put extra efforts to attract crowd and build some interest in people so that they can view the matches in TV as well and get good sponsorship. It is only a matter of time and coming years will have a good response for sure in WIPL as well. How and through which medium this could be done would have to be decided by BBCI.

Don't know about WIPL being as much popular as the current IPL as the craze is much less compared to the current one. Also, I don't know the names of the current Women Cricketers to be excited about it. It's just because they don't get as much recognition like Sania Mirza or Sania Nehwal.

Women cricket is underrated I think. It deserves more buzz than current. Indian Women team is pretty much good team as far as I know. WIPL would be a great edition for women cricket to be flourished.

It doesn't matter if there are no cheerleaders or much prize-money ( although I prefer same prize-money for both men and women tournaments , it might be difficult as men sports gather much larger views than women , unfortunately) or any other thing , all they need is a platform to showcase their talent and in the meantime the audience to enjoy the matches.I think they can play a new 15-over IPL ( I think it will be interesting ) . I feel 10 overs is too less and 20 overs is more in a less scoring match , 15 overs would be ideal .

Anymore reduction of the already reduced 20 overs per side would mean that bowlers would completely lose their significance in cricket. I would say that 20 overs is ideal. The batsmen have the advantage here, but still the bowlers have something to play for. If you reduce it any further, then it will become boring, as you will only witness one type of shot from the batsmen during the entire duration of the match.

Bowlers also might get evolve according to the need if there is 15 over matches in the future but as cricket lover I don't want to see such reduction because it may get less interesting to watch the matches if there are not too many opportunities for all the 11 players were playing the match.

Lets come to women's cricket tournaments, which is not popular as men's tournament but they are getting way better than how it was before two years.On social media more people likes to talk and appreciate the women'r cricket players as well and more over people starts to have crush on those players.

Just wondering, would there still be female cheerleaders by the stands if we actually see a woman IPL. I mean if its women IPL, the cheerleaders could be male models. If women IPL gets going, i hope we can have more of women team sports in the country. It'd take us forward as a country in normalizing the female presence.

I don't know much about the cheerleaders for the women's matches. But I guess in the WBL, they have the women cheerleaders. That said, here in India perhaps cricket is the only sport in which there is a gender lag right now. There are well established women's leagues, in almost all the other sports. And that includes badminton, boxing, wrestling, tennis, football and hockey. I heard that even the Women's Kabaddi Challenge is doing quite well.

WIPL would be a great edition and BCCI should give it a go. Let the crowd decide how it goes? I am sure it will attract a lot of women spectators too. This event will also generate revenue for BCCI, I do not see anything stopping from it to happen next year.

Aussies already doing this for some years so now time for BCCI to take advantage and have some good money which will increase good interest for women in India they already doing some good in women sports but this could be biggest as too much money and good marketing can give them good advantage against WBBL.

Why don't we use this time to improve our self religiously ?

We can use the time to "religiously" improve ourselves.

Quote from: UmerIdrees on March 27, 2020, 09:59:03 AM

Read about our religion and try to become a better person. Feel shame on the sins and promise to God to avoid them in the future.

I feel bad that when people with access to the greatest inventions in the world think that reading about religion or feeling shame for sins can make us a better person. The "moral lessons" of religion are just an easily accessible education for those who do not have any. For people like us, education is within out reach. I think we shouldn't need religion to realize what is sinful and what's not.

I don't know why the BCCI has delayed the WIPL giving the silliest of the excuses. Sourav Ganguly was saying a few months ago that BCCI "would consider" holding the WIPL in 2023. For me, his statement sounded like deliberate delaying tactic.

Well, let's just stop worrying about the delay, and let's just hope that it actually takes place in some time in future. Sad

Or let's just hope that everything goes back to normal as soon as possible. We really do not want to keep going like this for the next one or two months or even three+ months. No one really knows which direction we are going in this pandemic situation.

The situation is getting worse with every passing day. We still have another 4 days to go in this month, and the total number of infected people have hit the 560,000 mark. For comparison, one month ago the figure was 86,604 (on February 29). That means that the infection rate has increased by more than 6 times. What if the situation continues next month, with another 6x rise in the infections? I am getting really skeptical about the situation.

There is no doubt that things are getting worst day by day. The number of people infected by this deadly virus has risen sharply. Not to forget the PM of United Kingdom is now infected too. USA has already crossed the 100k mar and in India it is also looking bad. We can only pray for those who losing this battle and who have already lost and stay indoors.

We are now too helpless and miserable. All thanks to China and the delay by world leaders to assess the gravity of this situation.

^ Morrison & co seems slow in this regard, recently one specific Australian cricketer (not good benchmark though) made a remark on his last speech, where he was rambling about Shopping center-Shirt- lockdown etc in his long 20 mins speech. And authorities not even closing Airspace for overseas arrivals, guess they think they can manage foreign travelers situation easily by forced isolation.

Like I said here, the Australian summer goes right into March early April so there is a lot of time for the T20 world cup to be played. The main thing right now is to try and stop the spread of this virus but some governments ain't doing the right thing by shutting the country down like here in Australia. We should be in total lock down but we ain't as of yet.

Now it is almost confirmed that the IPL will not happen within the next 2-3 months. However, in case the situation improves I would love to watch the mini-IPL on TV, sometime in September-October this year. It is really hard to sit at home, without any live match being shown in the television. And I am horrified, thinking about the future. At least for the next 2 months, there is not going to be any live match on any of the channels. Angry

Right now living in room with just this computer is really one of tough time in my life as I never have before this no live matches and no good event to watch for me only typying here and doing some other stuff related to social media and captcha is really bore but cannot do any other alternative for me and when I feel its going for some long time then really have more frustration but this Corona locked us all.

No major update has come from the BCCI today regarding the IPL. However, today there was a statement from Mithali Raj (India women's ODI captain), who asked the BCCI to consider starting a mini-WIPL (similar to the WBBL). I don't know why the BCCI has delayed the WIPL giving the silliest of the excuses. Sourav Ganguly was saying a few months ago that BCCI "would consider" holding the WIPL in 2023. For me, his statement sounded like deliberate delaying tactic.

Yeah she seems pretty excited to play on the stage with greater audience. BCCI really should consider shifting the date to earlier date. Right now, given the situation I think any proper discussion will only be held after the lockdown ends. 2023 doesn't makes sense ...why not now? I am curious to know the reasoning behind it.

Mithali was really happy to see the audience that came to support them in the finals. Indian Women's team really made a good display throughout the WC but I wonder if we will have good audience in WIPL.
