Contents [Edit] History The Indian Premier League (IPL) is a professional league for Twenty20 cricket competition in India. It was initiated by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), headquartered in Mumbai,[3][4] and is supervised by BCCI Vice President Chirayu Amin, who serves as the league's Chairman and Commissioner. It is currently contested by 10 teams consisting of players from around the world. It was started after an altercation between the BCCI and the Indian Cricket League.[5] In 2010, IPL became the first sporting event ever to be broadcast live on YouTube in association with Indiatimes.[6] Its brand value is estimated to be around $3.67 billion in fourth season.[7][8] According to global sports salaries review, IPL is the second highest-paid league, based on first- team salaries on a pro rata basis, second only to the NBA. It is estimated that the average salary of an IPL player over a year would be $3.84 million.[9] Contents [hide] 1 History o 1.1 First season o 1.2 Second season o 1.3 Third season o 1.4 Fourth season 2 IPL Trophy o 2.1 2008-2010 o 2.2 2011-2013 3 League organization o 3.1 Franchises o 3.2 Rules 4 Statistics and records o 4.1 Winners o 4.2 Performance of teams o 4.3 Player signings 5 Television rights and sponsorships o 5.1 Television rights o 5.2 Sponsorships o 5.3 Revenue and Profits o 5.4 Mobile applications o 5.5 Official website 6 Global following 7 See also 8 References [edit] History [edit] First season Main article: 2008 Indian Premier League A Chennai vs Kolkata match at the M.A. Chidambaram Cricket Stadium won by Chennai Super Kings. The inaugural season of the tournament started on 18 April 2008 and lasted for 46 days with 59 matches scheduled, out of which 58 took place and 1 was washed out due to rain. The final was played in DY Patil Stadium, Nerul, Navi Mumbai. Every team played each other both at home and away in a round robin system. The top four ranking sides progressed to the knockout stage of semi-finals followed by a final. Rajasthan Royals defeated Chennai Super Kings in a last ball thriller and emerged as the inaugural IPL champions. [edit] Second season Main article: 2009 Indian Premier League The 2009 season coincided with the General Elections in India. Owing to concerns regarding players' security, the venue was shifted to South Africa. The format of the tournament remained same as the inaugural one. Deccan Chargers, who finished last in the first season,were big underdogs, but came out as eventual winners defeating the Royal Challengers Bangalore in the final. Deccan set a target of 144 with the help of Gibbs(53) and defended it. [edit] Third season Main articles: 2010 Indian Premier League and 2010 IPL Player Auction The third season opened in January 2010 with the auction for players. 66 players were on offer but only 11 players were sold. In this season, Deccan Chargers did not play at their preferred home location of Hyderabad, India due to the ongoing political crisis in the Telangana region . The new bases for the champions this season were Nagpur, Navi Mumbai and Cuttack. Four teams qualified for the semi-finals. The first semi-final was won by Mumbai Indians who defeated Bangalore Royal Challengers by 35 runs. Chennai Super Kings defeated Deccan Chargers in the second semi-final. The final was played between Chennai Super Kings and Mumbai Indians. Chennai Super Kings won by a margin of 22 runs. [edit] Fourth season Main articles: 2011 Indian Premier League and 2011 IPL Player Auction Chennai Super Kings are the most successful team in the tournament winning the championship twice and qualifying for the top four every time. On 21 March 2010, it was announced in Chennai that two new teams from Pune and Kochi will be added to the IPL for the fourth season. However, the bid around the Kochi franchisee turned controversial resulting in the resignation of minister, Shashi Tharoor from the Central Government and investigations by various departments of the Government of India into the financial dealings of IPL and the other existing franchisees. Later, Lalit Modi was 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.[10] The addition of teams representing Pune and Kochi was 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.[11] 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 play only away matches.Thus each team plays 14 matches.Top four teams would qualify for the semi-finals. In October 2010, the 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.[12] Two months later both teams were finally allowed to take part in the 2011 edition after a court ruling.[13] Chennai Super Kings won their second consecutive IPL title after defeating Royal Challengers Bangalore by 58 runs in the fourth season of IPL.[14] CSK had beaten RCB in the playoffs too while RCB defeated Mumbai Indians to reach the final. This is the first time a franchise has won two IPL titles, had four consecutive semi-final visits, come to the finals three times, and successfully defended their title. The top three teams namely CSK, RCB and MI have also qualified for the Champions League. Chennai Super Kings are the current Champions League Twenty20 champions.[15] [edit] IPL Trophy [edit] 2008-2010 The diamond-encrusted trophy of DLF Indian Premier League (IPL) Cricket was designed by Orra brand, owned by Antwerp-based Rosy Blue Group. It comprises a player in a gold leafing. He is shown holding a bat in his hand, next to a map of India. On the map, the names of all the IPL teams have been engraved by rubies. It took a team of as many as 14 craftsmen to make the trophy. Every year, the winners of the IPL T20 tournament are presented with a replica of this trophy, along with the prize money. [edit] 2011-2013 A new trophy has been designed for IPL 4 in view of the two new teams which are now in the fray. It has been changed to a large cup instead of a map of India. [edit] League organization [edit] Franchises The winning bidders for the eight franchises were announced on 24 January 2008.[16] While the total base price for auction was US $400 million, the auction fetched US $723.59 million.[17] On 21 March 2010, Pune and Kochi were unveiled as the two new franchises for the fourth edition of the Indian Premier League. The base price was $225 million. While Pune was bought by Sahara Adventure Sports Group for $370 million, the Kochi franchise was bought by Rendezvous Sports World Limited for $333.3 million. The process was to have been completed on March 7 but was postponed by two weeks after many bidders and the BCCI objected to stiff financial clauses.[18] The second franchise auction fetched total $703 million.

In the annual auction, buying domestic players, signing uncapped players, through trading and buying replacements.[19][20] 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.[21] Some of the Team composition rules are: Minimum squad strength of 16 players plus one physio and a coach. No more than 10 foreign players in the squad and maximum 4 foreign players should be in the playing eleven. Minimum of 8 local players must be included in each squad. A minimum of 2 players from the BCCI under-22 pool in each squad.

  • The Indian Premier League (Often Abbreviated As IPL), Is a Twenty20
    The Indian Premier League (often abbreviated as IPL), is a Twenty20 cricket competition created by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) and chaired by the Chairman & Commissioner IPL, BCCI Vice President Lalit Modi. The first season of the Indian Premier League commenced on 18 April 2008, and ended on 30 June 2008 with the victory of the Rajasthan Royals against Chennai Super Kings in the final at the DY Patil Stadium, Navi Mumbai. As the second season of the IPL coincided with multi- phase 2009 Indian general elections, the Indian Central Government refused to release the Indian paramilitary forces to provide security, saying the forces would be stretched too thinly if they were to safeguard both the IPL and the elections. As a result, the BCCI decided to host the second season of the league outside India.[3] On 24 March 2009, the BCCI officially announced that the second season of the IPL will be held in South Africa.Though India did not host the second season, the format of the tournament remained unchanged from the 2008 season format. The third season of IPL is scheduled to be held in India from 12 March 2010 over a period of 45 days[4] Four new venues, Nagpur, Vishakhapatnam, Ahmedabad and Dharamsala, have been added[5][6]. Other changes include removal of icon players [7] and granting permission to players who were involved in the Indian Cricket League to play in the tournament Existing Original Eight The winning bidders for the eight franchises were announced on 24 January 2008.[12] While the total base price for auction was US $400 million, the auction fetched US $723.59 million.[13] The official list of franchise owners announced and the winning bids were as follows.

WINNERS AND LOSERS IN THE INDIAN CRICKET AUCTIONS The Indian Premier League’s Twenty20 competition has taken the cricket world by storm. The players, auctioned to the business and media groups granted franchises by the IPL, are getting $50,000 to $1.5m for six weeks’ play. Our analysis suggests the process has resulted in both bargains and bonanzas: that (apart from the superstars) batsmen have done relatively poorly, while the youngest Indian cricketers have done exceptionally well; and that some of England’s cricketers may have earned six-figure sums had they participated. The IPL – a new league formed to play Twenty20 cricket in India – has had a bigger impact on cricket power structures and player salaries than anything since the Packer revolution in the late 1970s. Twenty20 cricket is a recently introduced, frenetic and exciting variant. A complete game takes about three hours, compared with the five days for traditional Test matches, or the full single day for one-day internationals (ODIs). Twenty20 cricket rewards explosive power and quick thinking; Test cricket rewards patience, discipline and concentration. Æ 2 Frontier Economics | June 2008 RULES OF THE GAME In January, the IPL auctioned eight team-owning franchises to business and media groups, who paid US$67m-US$112m for the privilege. However, media rights, to be shared across the franchisees, have been sold for over $1bn.

INTRODUCTION Twenty20 has taken the cricketing world by storm since its inception in 2003. It has quickly become a permanent part of both the domestic and international cricket calendars and has reignited and attracted wider interest in this most gentrified of sports. The BCCI‟s introduction of the Indian Premier League with its $1 billion television deal and player auctions has generated a level of hype and razzmatazz never seen before in the game of cricket that is akin to established football, basketball and baseball franchises. For the first time, Intangible Business, the leading international brand valuation specialist, and MTI Consulting, the management consultancy and Intangible Business‟ partner in the Indian markets, have carried out in-depth analysis into the values of these new brands. Significant sums have been invested in acquiring the team franchises and the race is on to capture the hearts and minds of cricket fans to develop a strong club culture modelled on the success of the world‟s most popular sports brands. While the playing squads will change and the success of each team will fluctuate over time, the brand is the constant that unites supporters and is ultimately responsible for driving the long-term commercial sustainability and success of the IPL franchises. Which of the IPL franchises will become Twenty20‟s equivalent of Manchester United, Real Madrid or LA Lakers? In this first report on the value of the IPL franchise brands Intangible Business and MTI Consulting identify the early pace setters and consider the attributes needed to develop a successful sports franchise.

Deodhar* Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad Abstract In April 2008, BCCI initiated Indian Premier League, a cricket tournament of Twenty-Twenty overs to be played among eight domestic teams. Team owners bid for the services of cricketers for a total of US$ 42 million. Not much is known about how the valuation of cricketers might have occurred. Given the data on final bid prices, cricketing attributes of players, and other relevant information, we try to understand which attributes seem to be important and what could be their relative valuations. We employ the bid and offer curve concept of hedonic price analysis and econometrically establish a relation between the IPL-2008 final bid prices and the player attributes.

  • Home Team Versus Local Stars
    ISSN (Online) - 2349-8846 Home Team versus Local Stars Franchises in the Indian Premier League SOUVIK NAHA Vol. 50, Issue No. 20, 16 May, 2015 Souvik Naha ([email protected]) is at ETH Zurich, Switzerland. The Indian Premiere League’s unwavering support base proves that it is attached not just to its local icons, but also to the local sporting grounds. The classic sports supporter has a long-term emotional relationship with one’s club or team. When the Indian Premier League (IPL) started with eight newfangled franchises, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) sought to create their support bases by designating a cricketer from the city/state as the icon player, who would lead the side and draw the highest salary. This was coupled with the condition of including four local cricketers in the playing 11. Expectedly, Sachin Tendulkar became the marquee player for Mumbai Indians (MI), Rahul Dravid for Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), Sourav Ganguly for Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and so on. Divided Loyalties? Yet, when the tournament began, many fans faced the dilemma of choosing which team to support. Would it be alright for a Tamil to pull her/his weight behind MI because Sachin Tendulkar played for them? Or would it be mandatory to support one’s home team? And who would the people from states without an IPL team follow—their neighboring states or the teams featuring their favourite cricketers or the side owned by their matinee idol? Jagdeep Singh voiced his indecision on a website: “It is difficult for me to decide where I belong.

Conclusion Indian Entertainment Industry Television Films Radio Entertainment Industry Sports Live Entertainment Entertainment Digital Media India’s entertainment economy is growing rapidly, and the world is taking note. The country is among the world’s youngest nations, with more than half a billion people under the age of 25. With favorable demographics and a rise in disposable incomes, the propensity to spend on leisure and entertainment is growing faster than the economy itself. Enticed by economic liberalization and the huge volume of demand for leisure and entertainment, many of the global media giants have been present in the Indian market for more than two decades. However, in recent years, with near double-digit annual growth and a fast-growing middle class, there has been a renewed surge in investment in the country by global companies. Companies in the US and Western Europe see their growth increasingly linked to emerging giants like India, which is why they are now focused on the best way to enter, grow and brand their business in this market. The Indian media and entertainment (M&E) industry now finds itself at a new inflection point — digital media. A surge in mass broadband adoption is expected, led by the launch of 3G and 4G services.

  • A Hedonic Model of Player Wage Determination from the Indian Premier League Auction
    A Hedonic Model of Player Wage Determination from the Indian Premier League Auction# Author: Liam J.A. Lenten, Wayne Geerling László Kónya La Trobe University: School of Economics and Finance Working Paper No. 4 of 2010 ISSN: 1837-2198 ISBN: 978-0-9807041-6-7 A Hedonic Model of Player Wage Determination from the Indian Premier League Auction# Liam J. A. Lenten, Wayne Geerling* and László Kónya School of Economics and Finance La Trobe University Abstract A range of cross-sectional models are estimated with a view to establishing the factors that determine the valuation of professional athletes in a highly-specialised sport, with an application to cricket‟s Indian Premier League (IPL). We distinguish between personal characteristic and playing ability factors, and with respect to the former, between ability in different forms of the sport. We find a number of interpretable variables that have explanatory power over auction values, while decomposition according to batting and bowling specialisations produces very different results depending on the use of either Test or One-Day International (ODI) variables. There is also possible evidence of inefficient bidding, insofar that overbidding was somewhat correlated with players with higher realised values.
