England more important than IPL - Stuart Broad

[Ollie_H]

And Stop screaming. You've been doing this again and again and I've been overlooking this. Stop testing my patience. Now be a responsible user/mod/ex mod and don't respond to this in the thread and make off-topic discussions. You can do that with PMs. It is very welcome.

Who are you my mother? If you were to stay on topic, you wouldn't have even responded to him in the first place because you are so mature.

On Topic: The concensus seems to be Broad wouldn't have got a team anyway.

He asked a question. I answered it. Simple?

I wouldn't mind being your father, btw. You seem to be decent kid, albeit a bit high on passion, but decent nonetheless.

Partial agreement. Welcome change.

I'll always put England before Twenty20 cash - Flintoff | England Cricket News | Cricinfo.com - Flintoff showing his loyalty to England aswell.

Cool down guys.
On the sider note, no doubt Broad and Flintoff prefer to play for their country as Country is always greater than any thing.
Wish ICC soon include IPL in tour list or BCCI organise it at proper time so that players should not have to make decision between the two.

The IPL is a domestic tournament, the ICC should never include it in a tou list or create space for it, it is second fiddle to Internationals.

But Sata errrr... Latid Modi would not approve of that.

 

[ZoraxDoom]

Tsk tsk, do it like this:

But Satan Lalit Modi wouldn't approve of that.


But FYI, he did approve to hit, hence making it essential all International players get NOC's from their boards to play in the IPL. International > IPL. IPL is Indian Domestic Cricket, we just happen to have loads of money to spend. We aren't trying to take over the world or anything.

IPL willl wither away eventually, my guess is that players will not want to risk injury and another terrorist attack or so and no one will be willing to go to India and risk your lives for salaries that doctors and lawyers make in a year or two.

 

[Chetan0304]

So is this a step to end the IPL ? ::sarcasm:

 

[Amiya]

Nah not really. I would be rather happy if no international players take part in it because it really hides the talents of young indian players. Almost every country has well developed t20 tournament structure. IPL is famous mostly because of foreign players like Hayden, Gilchrist. It's just my opinion.

 

[Mihir Doshi]

Hope to see IPL getting closed

 

[Chetan0304]

Hope to see IPL getting closed

Your hope dont bother IPL & Modi.

If this was for Marky, why do even bother to respond to him? He's not worth the time and effort.

Hope to see IPL getting closed

That is not gonna happen my friend. And Chetan explained you why.

Risk their lives? You do realize that they will be coming to India for series' anyways, right...? The NZ A team sure didn't look like they were 'risking' their lives when I saw them in Chennai last summer, chilling in the 5 star hotels.

They're making millions for two weeks of T20 cricket. A maximum of 4 overs for the bowlers for thousands of dollars per ball. If they get injured something is wrong with them .

but the IPL should never come in the way of Intl cricket. The thought never crossed my mind.

England could easily have been murdered if the terrorists struck a week later, Middlesex was due to arrive the next day. Both teams were to stay at the Taj and when they are in India they are confined to their hotel rooms anyways so they would most defintily have been in the hotels when that happened. You can go ahead and say "oh it could happen anywhere" and while that is true, the odds of it happening in India are a ████ load higher than in AUS ENG SA NZ WI
