The MODI-fied IPL

Raining boundries,quick runs,breaking wickets,dancing beauties and the freaking crowd are the things which Modi dreamt about some three years back. He carved out his ideas, garnished it with BCCI's political hold on the International Cricket and served it to the cricket aficionadios. The recipe smelled like a rose for the public but was smelling fishy in the background. Finally after three years somebody opened the beak and tweeted that it was actually overcooked.
Was modi really serving the overcooked recipe? Its still an enigma for the voracious cricket fans. But its true that the IPL is MODI-fied. The whole scam came as blot from the blue on the authenticity of IPL. It hardly matters if Modi or Tharoor steps down from their ranks but what matters is the fact that IPL is derailed from its true nature of being entertaining and rewarding. The match fixing allegations and the involvment of BCCI officials has further detoriated the situation.
Who should be blamed for all this? Is it justified to blame Lalit Modi only who forayed into market as new entrepreneur, a CEO of $4.13 billion industry, or Mr Tharoor woke up and smelt the coffee but for his own personal interests. We are unable to look behind the conspiracy. Its nothing less than a well laid out plot aginst Modi by BCCI officials which is now in execution phase and likely to end with modi ostracized from the elite group of BCCI officials. My thoughts are not biased for modi but here it is required to understand the fact "When it is a question of money, everybody is of the same religion".
Tharoor is out in the semis and now expect a final between Pawar and Modi. Watch out for the MODI-fied IPL's final LIVE on 3D screens.
