Indian Premier League was initiated by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) and has been an enormous success.

The annual tournament, played in the months of April and May has gone from strength to strength and is largely viewed as

being the 'richest' tournament in world cricket.

Main articles:2011 Indian Premier LeagueandList of 2011 Indian Premier League personnel changes

On 21 March 2010, it was announced in Chennai that two new teams fromPuneandKochiwill be added to the IPL for the

fourth season. However, the bid around the Kochi franchise turned controversial resulting in the resignation of

minister,Shashi Tharoorfrom the Central Government and investigations by various departments of the Government of

India into the financial dealings of IPL and the other existing franchises. Later,Lalit Modiwas also removed from IPL

chairmanship by BCCI. On 5 December 2010, it was confirmed that Kochi will take part in the fourth season of IPL.[12]

The addition of teams representing Sahara'sPune Warriors Indiaand theKochi Tuskers Keralawas to have increased the

number of franchises from 8 to 10. The BCCI originally considered extending the tournament format used in previous

season to ten teams, which would increase the number of matches from 60 to 94. Instead, the round-robin stage of the

tournament was to have been replaced by a group stage with two groups of five, limiting the number of matches to 74.[13]But

this format was replaced by another one in which each team would play 5 other teams in a two-way round robin format and

there would be 2 teams against whom they would play only at home and remaining 2 teams against which they would playonly away matches.Thus each team plays 14 matches.Top four teams would qualify for the semi-finals.

In October 2010, Rajasthan Royals and Kings XI Punjab had their franchises terminated for breaching ownership rules. The

new Kochi franchise was also issued a warning to resolve all their ownership disputes.[14]Two months later both teams were

finally allowed to take part in the 2011 edition after a court ruling.[15]

Chennai Super Kingswon their second consecutive title after defeating Royal Challengers Bangalore by 58 runs in the

final.[16]This was the first time a franchise has won two titles.

Tournament Rules[edit]

There are five ways that a franchise can acquire a player: In the annual auction, signing domestic players, signing uncapped

players, through trading, and signing replacements.[29][30]In the trading window, the player can only be traded with his

consent. The franchise will have to pay the difference between the old contract price and the new contract price. If the new

contract is worth more than the older one, then the difference will be shared between the player and the franchise selling the

player.[31][32]

Some of the team composition rules are:

A minimum squad strength of 16 players plus one physiotherapist and a coach.

No more than 11 foreign players in the squad and maximum of four foreign players should be in the playing eleven.

A minimum of 14 Indian players must be included in each squad.

A minimum of six players from the BCCI under-22 pool in each squad.

IPL games utilisetelevision timeouts,hence there is no time limit for teams to complete their innings. However, there may be

a penalty if theumpiresfind teams misusing this privilege at their own choice. Additionally, each team is given a two-and-a-

half-minute "strategic timeout" during each innings; one must be taken by the bowling team between the 6th to 10th overs,

12/15

No prize money for remaining teams

It must be noted that IPL rules mandate that half of the prize money must be distributed among the players. [35]

Sponsorships[edit]

The IPL is expected to bring the BCCI an income of approximately US$1.6 billion, over a period of five to ten years. All of

these revenues are directed to a central pool, 40% of which will go to IPL itself, 54% to franchises and 6% as prize money.

The money will be distributed in these proportions until 2017, after which the share of IPL will be 50%, franchises 45% and

prize money 5%. The IPL signed upKingfisher Airlinesas the official umpire partner for the series in a 1.06

billion(US$17 million) (approximately 15 million) deal. This deal sees the McDowells No.1 brand on all umpires' uniforms

and also on the giant screens duringthird umpiredecisions.[36]

Television rights[edit]

On 17 January 2008 it was announced that a consortium consisting of India'sSony Entertainment Television(Set

Max)network and Singapore-basedWorld Sport Groupsecured the global broadcasting rights of the Indian Premier

League.[37]The record deal has a duration of ten years at a cost of US$1.026 billion. As part of the deal, the consortium will

pay the BCCI US$918 million for the television broadcast rights and US$108 million for the promotion of the

tournament.[38]This deal was challenged in the Bombay High Court by IPL, and got the ruling on its side.

After losing the battle in court, Sony Entertainment Television signed a new contract with BCCI with Sony Entertainment

Television paying 87 billion(US$1.4 billion) for 10 years. One of the reasons for payment of this huge amount is seen as

the money required to subsidise IPL's move to South Africa which will be substantially more than the previous IPL. IPL had

agreed to subsidise the difference in operating cost between India and South Africa as it decided to move to the African

nation after the security concerns raised because of its coincidence with India's general elections.

20% of these proceeds would go to IPL, 8% as prize money and 72% would be distributed to the franchisees. The money

would be distributed in these proportions until 2012, after which the IPL would go public and list its shares (But in March

2010, IPL decided not to go public).[39]

Sony-WSG then re-sold parts of the broadcasting rights geographically to other companies. It is officially broadcast onSet

Max,Set Sixand in internet onTimes internet.

On 4 March 2010ITVannounced it had secured the United Kingdom television rights for the 2010 Indian Premier League.

ITV will televise 59 of the 60 IPL matches on itsITV4free to air channel.[40]

On 1 April 2011,Rogers Mediaannounced that he signed a four-year exclusive deal in Canada to broadcast 36 group stage

matches, 3 playoff matches and 1 championship match on its channelSportsnet One.[41]In the 2012 season, its coverage

includes a weekly highlight show and four matches on itsOmni Televisionmulticultural stations, and the IPL Final was

broadcast on the mainSportsnetregional channels.[42]
