England’s “The Hundred” league is fooling people; Lalit Modi told what scam is going on!

(Photo by Stu Forster/Getty Images) The flagship initiative of the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB), ‘The Hundred League’ is a unique offering for cricket fans as they have never seen a 100-ball game played before. It was introduced as a variation on the T20 format, aimed at increasing the popularity of cricket along the lines of the Indian Premier League (IPL). To make this new league a success, the ECB also contacted several IPL franchises so that they could take stake in the teams of the Hundred. Lalit Modi, the main man behind IPL, called the financial structure of ECB a scam. He believes that many other major franchise cricket leagues are already in a strong position and the Hundred has been able to attract only a limited number of international fans. He has warned those investing in England’s The Hundred. ‘They are trying to create a lot of buzz and excitement about a tournament which is actually not as important as they are making it out to be,’ Lalit Modi told Cricbuzz. ‘The Hundred’ league tournament is fooling people: Lalit Modi Lalit Modi tweeted on his ‘X’ (formerly Twitter) handle- “The ECB’s figures regarding earnings from international TV rights for the Hundred League do not make sense given the increasing competition from leagues like the IPL. “It seems unlikely that ‘The Hundred’ will be able to attract an international audience to justify these inflated figures.” Hundred League is finding it difficult to compete with CPL’s profits: Lalit Modi It is noteworthy that Lalit Modi started IPL in 2008. It is believed that BCCI had earlier rejected his idea in which he had proposed to introduce a club-based format of cricket like football in India. However, when India won the T20 World Cup in 2007, IPL got approval and was loved by the Indian audience. Lalit Modi had offered US$1 billion to buy ‘The Hundred’, but the ECB rejected it. He further added, “The worst part is that ‘The Hundred’ is struggling to even compete with the Caribbean Premier League (CPL) in terms of profits, which is a clear indication of its financial weakness. ‘The Hundred’ league is in a weak position financially.”

So, after winning the T20 World Cup trophy and becoming the world champions, the Indian cricket team reached India on 4 July. After reaching India, the first thing that Team India did was meet PM Modi in the Prime Minister’s Office on the morning of 4 July. In this meeting, PM Modi questioned Indian captain Rohit Sharma about that iconic walk and asked whether it was Chahal’s idea. Rohit Sharma explains the reason behind his iconic walk Let us tell you that when PM Modi asked Rohit Sharma about this walk, he said- this was a very big moment for all of us, everyone waited for this for a long time. So everyone told me not to go on stage in a simple way, do something different. While talking to Team India, PM Modi pulled spinner Yuzvendra Chahal’s leg and asked Rohit – was this Chahal’s idea? Rohit replied to this question by saying that this was Kuldeep Yadav and Chahal’s idea. Also, Rohit said about eating some pieces of the Barbados pitch- I wanted to remember the moment where we won. We played on that pitch and won the match there. We were all waiting for that moment. Many times we came close to it, but could not achieve it. So, when we achieved it, the pitch was special for me.

BCCI received more than 3000 applications for the post of head coach, people applied in the name of Narendra Modi, MS Dhoni, Sachin
The last date to apply for the position was Monday, May 27, after which the BCCI was to decide on the next Team India coach. The BCCI invited applications for the post of head coach through a Google form on May 13, and since then a flood of fake applicants is being seen every day. They had to face similar problems in 2022. A BCCI source was quoted by the Indian Express as saying, “Last year too, BCCI had received such feedback where many fake people had applied and this time too the story is the same. The reason BCCI is inviting applications on Google Form is that it is easy to check the names of the applicants in a sheet. The names of the applicants also include Prime Minister of India Narendra Modi, Union Minister Amit Shah, former Indian cricketers Sachin Tendulkar and MS Dhoni.” After the T20 World Cup 2024, Team India has to tour Zimbabwe. At that time, some big players of Team India may decide to rest. Not only this, the Indian team will also have got a new head coach by then. It is said that the current head coach Rahul Dravid has not expressed his desire for this responsibility again. According to the information, some big and veteran former Indian players have applied. It is believed that this time too the Indian team will get an Indian head coach, there can also be a foreign coach, but the possibility of this seems very low at the moment. However, if sources are to be believed, Gautam Gambhir is currently leading in the race to become the head coach.
