I think cricket has lost its sheen India. It is total politics that is involved and so is IPL. IPL is played by the players just for the sake of money. Any player in IPL can hit a sixer or a four in quick succession and complete a century. I do not understand why IPL is raking in retired players. Is it for the name's sake or whatever it is. And nowadays in a Test match a player gets money in bounty and loads of money in IPL. Plus the advertisements. That why a player who hasn't even completed his graduation gets loads of money higher than that of a professional. What has a player got to do with advertisment especially that of motor bikes I fail to understand. That's why and I do fully agree with what Sir George Bernard Shaw said that cricket is game played by 11 flanneled fools. How come does the Indian team fare very badly when they travel overseas. Politics and IPL should be banned in order to bring back cricket its sheen.

In my opinion on the "Cricket in India has lost its Sheen is No. I think Cricket in every Indians has in blood because children know about this game from the primary teacher (Parents). In India When child born after some day his relatives give to ball for play.
If we talk about the domestic level of this game some people this game for the pleasure and some play for the keep their body fit and some wants to play in international level. So the future of this game is bright.
In this game consists 11 players in one team India a largest country a number of people are playing this game. IPL is a one source where domestic players get a chance to play with international level player.
Everything is associated with each other if a player is doing hard work toward the game that's why he got a chance to play there. After doing hard work every person think that results must positive.
They are earning name fame and money because they deserve for that.

I think that cricket in India is in the blood of almost every Indian. But the big mountain between cricket and talent is politics. Cricket in India may be called 'Partial'. I think that players of India are most interested in playing IPL. Rather than playing for the country. This is because players get more money of playing IPL than international Cricket.
Some players of India play with their hearts in international cricket like Raina, Sachin, Dravid, Kohli but some play only for money and this is why they perform in advertisement.

Yes cricket in India has lost its sheen, nowadays cricketers are more influenced by money and fame rather than sport spirit, the best example we can think of is recent incident of spot fixing in which cricketers of rajasthan royals got caught, incidents like these are disgrace on our Indian cricket, players really need to realise that its their performance what actually is going to be remembered not amount of dollars that they are gonna make.

Cricket is more or less seen to be losing its sheen in India, it is not able to maintain its tag-the gentleman's game. Recent match fixing cases have hugely hampered its repute, cricket fans have been disappointed to a great extent, there are still players like sachin, dhoni, yuvraj and many others who play cricket not for wads of notes but for the sake of their country and their passion, but for a few cricketers and poor transparency of the management, cricket in India would have reached its zenith and the fate of cricket would not have been at stake, commercialization of cricket has really deteriorated the spirit of the game.

Blaming players should be stopped. The governing comity must be headed by the retired. Players of Indian team with retired. Players as members. Politicians must not involve in sports. Players know a lot about cricket than others so BCCI must be headed and member by retired players and not by other business person or politicians. This will improve the strength of game and the bad impression can be easily erased from Indian cricket fans.

Well the recent cases of corruption in Indian cricket is one of the main reasons for it losing its credibility. Now even a genuine no-ball/wide/mis-field is met with suspicious eyes. The huge amount of money involved in Indian cricket(thanks to uncountable fans)attracted businessmen, politicians, even underworld people to the sport.
Almost all the state cricket bodies have politicians as their president; similarly with the advent of IPL, businessmen have found a hub to invest their black money and earn more through betting/fixing. The recent revelations had thrown light on such issues but India just winning the Champions Trophy has shifted the focus and once again we are back to square one.

There are lots of point in favor of this topic but I am providing you few points here:
1. Cricket has become a medium of business for the richer people in India after IPL.
2. All the owner of cricket (IPL) are the man whose both feet are in swamp of corruption.
3. Has become a platform of money laundering.
4. Under world is getting more money by match-fixing especially (D-GROUP).
5. All the match what we see is 80% fixed means we are watching a fake game the fate of every match is pre decided.
6. This is increasing gambling in poor country like India every where you can see at school, pubs, village, even if at police station also.
7. Many IPL owner has said that they will promote as will bring the economic condition of India at better level but never did all their black money are becoming white money.
8. TRP rate of IPL is decreasing per year this shows that fame and popularity of has gone.

Even if cricket is not the National sports of India yet all the indians feels like it is merely equal to national game. Cricket in India can never lose its sheen even after match fixing scams. IPL every year had made a new beginning for T20 cricket in India. Every indians are eager to watch the match even after the match fixing & IPL scams. Its because of us (indians) love to the cricketers that most of the companies choose Indian cricketers for advertisement so that they may get an edge over selling their product.
