The 2009 Indian Premier League Season

The 2009 Indian Premier League season, abbreviated as IPL 2 or the 2009 IPL, was the second season of the Indian Premier League, established by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) in 2007. The tournament was hosted by South Africa and was played between 18 April and 24 May 2009.[2] IPL 2 was the second biggest cricket tournament in the world, after the Cricket World Cup,[3] and was forecast to have an estimated television audience of more than 200 million people in India alone.[4] Concerns were raised in India that the tournament was the prime target of terrorists.[5] Because the second season of the IPL coincided with multi-phase 2009 Indian general elections, the Government of India refused to commit security by Indian paramilitary forces. As a result, the BCCI decided to host the second season of the league outside India.[6] On 24 March 2009, the BCCI officially announced that the second season of the IPL will be held in South Africa.[7] Though India did not host the second season, the format of the tournament remained unchanged from the 2008 season format.[8] IMP AS BROADCASTING OF EVENTS AND REVENUE GENERATED

Relocating the tournament posed extreme logistical challenges for the BCCI since more than 10,000 cricketers and other staff members needed to be flown from India to South Africa within a span of a few weeks.[9] The IPL injected approximately US$100 million into South Africa's local economy.[10] In addition, the BCCI signed a Rs. 8,200 crores (US$1.63 billion) contract with Multi Screen Media to broadcast matches live from South Africa to India.[11] The IPL was hosted successfully in South Africa and was hailed as an "extraordinary" accomplishment.[12] The tournament was particularly praised for globalizing cricket[13] and had set record television viewership.[14] The tournament was won by Deccan Chargers while the Bangalore Royal Challengers were declared as runners-up.[15] CHANGES BROUGHT IN RULE OF IPL

The number of international players allowed in any one squad was increased from 8 to 10 although the number allowed in any playing 11 remained at 4.[16] The players purchase cap was increased from 5 to 7 million[clarification needed]. The BCCI also negotiated with the ECB to allow English cricketers to participate in the 2009 edition of the IPL. English players were allowed to play for 21 days in between their tour to West Indies and the subsequent return tour.[17] Your continued donations keep Wikipedia running!

The 2009 Indian Premier League season, abbreviated as IPL 2 or the 2009 IPL, was the second season of the Indian Premier League, established by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) in 2007. The tournament was hosted by South Africa and was

[edit] Changes Some of the rules were changed for the 2009 edition of the IPL. The number of international players allowed in any one squad was increased from 8 to 10 although the number allowed in any playing 11 remained at 4.[16] The players purchase cap was increased from 5 to 7 million[clarification needed]. The BCCI also negotiated with the ECB to allow English cricketers to participate in the 2009 edition of the IPL. English players were allowed to play for 21 days in between their tour to West Indies and the subsequent return tour.[17]

[edit] Pre-season trades and signings [edit] Trade window Teams were reluctant to trade initially due to the troubled economic times and the general desire to concentrate on building a well-rounded team as opposed to making profits out of trades.[18] Kolkata were initially inclined to present Pakistani express bowler Shoaib Akhtar for trade but later withdrew from a deal.[19][not in citation given] Player 1

[edit] Signings

Delhi Daredevils scouts prompted management to sign David Warner early in the offseason With most international players are (barring members of the England squad and Indian Cricket League players) signing up for the first season on multi-season contracts, the emphasis for off-season signings for 2009 were possible up-and-coming young players from international domestic circuits. Some teams, including the Delhi Daredevils sent scouts to domestic and 'emerging player' matches held in Australia to sign up players.[20] Pre-auction signings • • • • • • • • • • • •

[edit] Withdrawals Other players opted to withdraw from this particular season from the IPL, but have not ruled out returning in the future. In most cases, the reason for withdrawal was that the players wanted a break from the hectic international schedule. There have also been withdrawals due to injury and also Pakistanis who have had their contracts terminated or suspended due to tensions between India and Pakistan since the Mumbai Terrorist Attacks.However, as the tournament was eventually moved to South Africa, it was perceived as somewhat unfair towards the players, who had made such a substantial influence in the first edition of the IPL. Most withdrawals were Australian international

players, for whom the IPL would be the only break between a series against Pakistan and the upcoming long tour of England which would include The Ashes series. Withdrawals included: • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •

Michael Hussey – Chennai Super Kings Ricky Ponting – Kolkata Knight Riders Jerome Taylor – Kings XI Punjab Shoaib Akhtar – Kolkata Knight Riders Misbah-ul-Haq – Bangalore Royal Challengers Shahid Afridi – Deccan Chargers Shoaib Malik – Delhi Daredevils Mohammad Asif – Delhi Daredevils Umar Gul – Kolkata Knight Riders Mohammad Hafeez – Kolkata Knight Riders Salman Butt – Kolkata Knight Riders Kamran Akmal – Rajasthan Royals Younis Khan – Rajasthan Royals Sohail Tanvir – Rajasthan Royals Shaun Tait – Rajasthan Royals Shane Watson – Rajasthan Royals

[edit] Build-up

Kevin Pietersen was signed for a record 1.55 million USD by Bangalore Royal Challengers and made captain of the team The media build-up to the second season of the IPL was largely centred around security concerns, but another focus was Kolkata Knight Riders' coach John Buchanan's radical four-captain plan, which was created to utilize the knowledge of Sourav Ganguly, Chris Gayle, Brendon McCullum and Brad Hodge together as captains. The plan met its fair share of criticism and approval[citation needed], with critics claiming the plan would lead to too much conflict of opinion on the field while supporters claimed that Twenty20 is suited to such radical ideas. Adding to Knight Riders' woe was the break out of the fake IPL blogger scandal. Much of the other hype around the IPL was the impact of the new-look Bangalore Royal Challengers with their new captain Kevin Pietersen. Bangalore team owner Vijay Mallya, disappointed with the team's 7th place performance last season and its categorization as a test team[citation needed], sought radical changes and signed Pietersen for a record 1.55 million USD contract before making him captain of the side (replacing Rahul Dravid who captained last season as the icon player of the Royal Challengers). The Challengers also acquired hard-hitting batsmen Robin Uthappa, Ross Taylor and Jesse Ryder. Some of the other topics of discussion were the potential benefit teams with a large number of South African players, like the Challengers, could gain from local knowledge of the conditions[citation needed]. There was also some concern about how teams like Kings XI Punjab could deal with the mass exodus of some of its core unit during the series due to international duty and how teams would deal with the loss of Pakistani players who in some cases (eg. Sohail Tanvir with the Rajasthan Royals) played a large part in their teams' fortunes last season[citation needed].

[edit] Warm-up games The match between Cape Cobras and Rajasthan Royals was billed as the Clash of the Champions due to both teams being champions of their country's Twenty20 leagues. However, as an IPL warmup, both teams fielded understrength teams in order to try out new blood, with only 4 of Rajasthan's 2008 title-winning team playing the warm-up. Nashua Cape Cobras were the victors.

[Hide] [Help us with translations!]

Chairman Shashank Manohar Secretary N. Srinivasan Coach Gary Kirsten Replaced Calcutta Cricket Club Official website www.bcci.tv

The Board of Control for Cricket in India, or BCCI, is the apex governing body for cricket in India, headquartered at Mumbai. The board was formed in December 1928 as the national governing body for all cricket in India. BCCI replaced Calcutta Cricket Club. It is a society, registered under the Tamil Nadu Societies Registration Act. The BCCI often uses government-owned stadiums across the country at a nominal annual rent. It is a private club consortium. Basically to become a member of a state-level association, you need to be introduced by another member and also pay an annual fee. The state-level clubs select their representatives (secretaries) who in turn select the BCCI officials. As for any private club, BCCI or the state-level associations are not required to make their balance sheets public. As a member of the International Cricket Council (ICC), it has the authority to select players, umpires and officials to participate in international events and exercises total control over them. Without its recognition, no competitive cricket involving BCCIcontracted Indian players can be hosted within or outside the country.

[edit] Logo The BCCI logo is derived from the emblem of the Order of the Star of India, India's highest order of chivalry during the British Raj and also its Coat of Arms.

[edit] Membership The BCCI has 27 state association members across five zones (viz. North Zone, South Zone, East Zone, West Zone and Central Zone) in India. Some states have more than one association. Maharashtra state, for instance, has Maharashtra Cricket Association, Mumbai Cricket Association and Vidarbha Cricket Association and Gujarat state has Gujarat Cricket Association, Baroda Cricket Association and Saurashtra Cricket Association. Railways and Services are also members.

[edit] History In 1911, an all-India cricket team visited England for the first time, sponsored and captained by the Maharaja of Patiala, and featuring the best cricketers of the time. It was in 1926 that two representatives of the Calcutta Cricket Club travelled to London to attend a couple of meetings of the Imperial Cricket Conference, predecessor to the current International Cricket Council. Although technically not an official representative of Indian cricket, it was allowed to attend by Lord Harris, chairman of the conference. An outcome of the meeting was the MCC's decision to send a team to India, led by Arthur Gilligan, who had captained England in The Ashes. The Hindus, as well as the all-India team, performed impressively during this tour. In a meeting with the Maharaja of Patiala and others, Gilligan praised Indian cricket and promised to press for its inclusion in the ICC if all the promoters of the game in the land came together to establish a single controlling body. An assurance was given and a meeting held in Delhi on November 21, 1927, attended by delegates from Sind, Punjab, Patiala, Delhi, United Provinces, Rajputana, Alwar, Bhopal, Gwalior, Baroda, Kathiawar and Central India. A consensus was reached to create a board for control of cricket in India. Another meeting, on December 10, 1927, brought a unanimous decision to form a "provisional" board of control to represent cricket in India. In December 1928, the BCCI was formed despite having only six associations affiliated to it as against the earlier-decided eight. R.E. Grant Govan was made its first president. In December 2005, the Board released "The Cricket Board in the 21st Century, A Vision Paper", which set out ambitions and responsibilities for both the immediate and the longterm future of cricket in India. "Frankly," it said, "the question being asked is, as the richest body in world cricket, has it fulfilled its obligations towards the players and paying public? For that we all need to introspect and touch our hearts before saying 'yes,

we have'."[1] Almost three years later, Ajay S Shankar of Cricinfo compared the paper with subsequent fact and decided that the Board had failed in most respects to fulfil its stated obligations.[2] "The buzzword," the paper had adjudged, "should be transparency. There can't be a better start to the new-look board than resolve that everything we do from here on will be transparent and in the game's and public interest, be it election or allotting television rights or the team selection."[1] According to Shankar, however, Except for a few influential BCCI officials and television executives, nobody knows what transpired during the hectic negotiations that led to Nimbus bagging the home television rights in 2006, and Sony walking away with the rights to telecast the IPL. The selectors were gagged early last year, which put paid to what little "transparency" there was in team selection. And the less said about the recent elections the better: a day after the new office-bearers announced the country's first paid selection panel, one of the five new selectors had yet to be officially informed about his appointment.[2]

[edit] Office bearers and controversy The BCCI is India's richest sporting body. The BCCI's constitution provides for annual elections at its Annual General Meeting (AGM) for all posts, with a bar on re-election of an incumbent president beyond two consecutive years, "provided that the General Body may in its discretion re-elect the same person as president for the third consecutive year". The President of BCCI is Shashank Manohar (elected 29 September, 2008). N. Srinivasan is the secretary. All the office-bearers for the year 2004-05, were elected at the annual general meeting of the Board held in Kolkata. On 10 January 2005, the Supreme Court of India ordered the removal of Jagmohan Dalmiya from the post of patron-in-chief of BCCI and also asked the board to complete its annual general meeting (AGM) which had been adjourned on 30 September 2004. The legality of the office-bearer's election at the board's annual general meeting (AGM) held on 29 September 2004 is subjudice.

[edit] Tiff with ICC In recent times the BCCI has been at odds with the ICC on Future Tours Program, it has formed unilateral arrangements to allow more series between India and Australia and England. Recently the ICC and BCCI are at loggerheads over the WADA, "Whereabouts clause"[3]

[edit] Finances

BCCI currently has the highest income of any national cricket board. Its income has increased manifold in 2007-08 and crossed Rs 1000.41 crore, as compared to Rs 651.81 crore in 2006-07, leading to a surplus of Rs 303.15 crore.[4]. The global media rights for international cricket to be held in India between March 2006 and March 2010 were awarded to production house Nimbus for US$612 Million.[5]. Official kit sponsorship rights for 5 years from 2006 to 2010 inclusive were awarded to Nike for US$43 Million[6]. While Air Sahara became the official Indian cricket team sponsor for a period of four years at a cost of US$70 Million [7]. The media rights for 25 neutral venue one-day matches to be played over the next 5 years were awarded to Zee Telefilms for US$219.15 Million[8]. Business Standard [9] reports that it will get another Rs 2,000 crore ($450 million) from the sale of other rights, including hotel, travel and ground sponsorship. The BCCI has recently established an inter-city cricket league, the Indian Premier League in limited-overs and Twenty20 format. It is structured along the lines of other professional leagues such as the English Premier League, complete with relegations and promotions. The league has recruited several prominent overseas cricketers and will have separate TV, internet, mobile, merchandising, sponsorship and ground signage rights. BCCI marketing director Lalit Modi predicted that it would become the single largest revenue earning avenue for BCCI after its establishment[10]. On 12 September, 2006 BCCI announced that it will spend $347 Million (Rs. 16 Billion) over the subsequent one year to upgrade the cricket stadiums around the country. [11][12] [

Finally DLF IPL Series in South Africa is Over. Now, lets talk about who made how much money, after all, its all about making money. It is too early to comment as balance sheet is yet to be released by teams. Its might be true that the winner gets more prize money, but, its not the only money they get, they get a share from the sale copyrights Broadcasting by BCCI, Advertising is the other part where they each team makes a lot of money, and the other way money from the sale of Tickets.If IPL has stood all you thought you knew about cricket on its head, it has done the same with finances too. In a year when franchisees were complaining about shifting how to South Africa would make a mess of their budgets, each one of them will make a profit. If that’s not strange enough, try this: The two finalists, Royal Challengers and Team Hyderabad, will make a fraction of the profit that bottom-of-table Knight Riders will, even if you take prize money into account. The main reason for the healthier bottomlines is a jump in the share of revenues from broadcasting. Last year, each franchisee got Rs 25 crore from IPL as its share of the central pool. This year, that has risen to Rs 67.50 crore each. BCCI’s profit too has apparently jumped to Rs 477 crore from Rs 350 crore last year. Sony Max is also likely to be in the black this year. IPL franchisees who had been complaining about the event being shifted to South Africa are in for a surprise: Every single team stands to make a profit from this year’s tournament. Had the matches been organized in India, it’s likely the teams profits would have been even higher because of higher receipts from ticket and merchandise sale, which have averaged Rs 8 crore and Rs 50 lakh respectively in South Africa. In 2008, teams like Knight Riders, Mumbai Indians and Team Delhi earned around Rs 20 crore from ticket sales alone as the capacity of their home stadiums was large enough to accommodate over 70,000 and the crowds just poured in. According to a report by equity research firm IIFL, Team Jaipur will make the highest profit of Rs 35.1 crore in the group matches of the second edition of the tournament.

Jaipur had also made the second-highest profit of Rs 14.50 crore in 2008, including the Rs 4.50 crore ($1 million) prize money. Knight Riders, which finished lowest in the league table during the qualifying round in South Africa, will nevertheless end up with the third-highest profit of Rs 25.8 crore in the second edition of IPL. In fact, the only semifinalist which also stands to make over Rs 20 crore in profits is Delhi. This is despite the fact that prize money in the IPL is a sizeable amount, with Rs 4.8 crore for winner, Rs 2.4 crore for the runners-up and 1.2 crore each for the losing semifinalists. For those who didn’t get past the league stage, the sums are correspondingly smaller - Rs 80 lakh for the team that finished fifth (Kings XI Punjab), Rs 70 lakh for the sixth placed (Jaipur), Rs 50 lakh for the seventh (Mumbai Indians) and Rs 40 lakh for the lowest one. The healthy bottomlines are a happy change from last year when besides Knight Riders and Jaipur, Team Chennai just scraped into the black due to its Rs 2.25 crore prize money for the runners-up position, according to a highly placed source. What has helped the IPL and franchisees is essentially the re-awarding of the broadcasting rights. The renegotiated contract was for $1.64 billion (Rs 8,200 crore) for nine years -- a jump of 90% from the original figure. Top Comment : Makrand Bhave | 4 months

IPL 2 beats revenue in BCCI Posted in: Twenty20 Thursday 28th, May 2009 Comments(6) Print Forward

Intake from the second edition of the tournament may go up by 30 to 40 per cent from last year. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is expected to see a 30 to 40 per cent jump in revenues from the second edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) tournament over the first edition held in India last year. Profits, however, are expected to increase marginally. Early assessments by senior IPL executives show that the cricket body is expected to earn Rs 450 crore to Rs 500 crore as revenue. But owing to higher expenses incurred on the

36-day tournament, which was relocated to South Africa owing to security concerns in India, profits could be Rs 300 crore to Rs 350 crore, against Rs 305 crore in IPL-1. The BCCI’s main source of earnings will also come from the renegotiated broadcasting rights with Multi Screen Media or MSM (owners of SET MAX channels) and World Sport Group (WSG). In March, BCCI and MSM-WSG reached an out-of-court settlement under which BCCI will be paid Rs 8,200 crore over the next nine years for the telecast rights of IPL. The telecast rights are shared in an 80:20 ratio in favour of the eight franchise teams for the first five tournaments. Later, the ratio changes to 60:40, also in favour of the franchise team owners. A back-of-the-envelope calculations show that BCCI will earn around Rs 183 crore in broadcasting rights and another Rs 190 crore as franchise fees, plus Rs 100 crore to Rs 150 crore from advertising. However, IPL sources said that the accountants will have to factor in the conversion cost of the rupee to the South African rand. Meanwhile, the eight franchisee teams are said to have collectively made a profit of Rs 225-240 crore, early estimates show. Last year, only two IPL teams, Kolkata Knight Riders and Rajasthan Royals made cash profits. This year, the main source of income for the eight franchisee teams comes from the revised broadcasting rights fees that works out to around Rs 70 crore per team. The main expenses of the eight teams were only two —franchise fees to BCCI and player fees.
