IPL vs ICL Why the first mover came last and a Business Man's Guide to IPL

I was pleasantly surprised to see that SOLUS, a magazine brought out by the Advertising Club of Mumbai,had carried my article on the relative performance of the Indian Premier League and the Indian Cricket League.This was initially published in June 2008.
Given that the next season the Indian Premier League is due this summer, it may make for an interesting read. The ICL had its second season this winter and the results could be evaluated against this backdrop.
