Under utilised local talents

     IPL  is born out just to destroy ICL[Indian cricket league], which was considered rebel league as they boosted young talents by giving them appropriate money and gave exposure to young indian talents by combining indian talents with foreigners.
      IPL from the first is totally under utilizing local talents but gives more importance to star cricketers from india  and foreign countries.According to me IPL isn't played to develop new local talents but it is played just to attract people with powerful foreigner and indian stars and eat more money with ridiculous ticket fairs that isnot affordable to middle class cricket enthusiasts with pricing starts from  Rs. 200 and ends with Rs 7000.
      For example I start with a single example with ranji trophy  top run scorers robin bist and abhinav mukund haven't even given a single opportunity to prove their worth and now itself  ipl teams have considered these two is fit only for domestic test.While oldie sachin,rahul dravid and sourav ganguly are getting opportunity to boost up the crowd and sourav ganguly has planned to play until 40 and sourav is a bcci executive member.There are lots and lots of talent who are overlooked in ipl due to money power that rules each team.
      I don't know why ICL's hard hitter ganapati vignesh who is associated with chennai superkings isn't given an opportunity to prove his worth even though vignesh is better than some of the current indian international star who are playing ridiculous cricket.
      But uncapped foreign players were treated like gift of god and were taken in auctions by spending more money while uncapped indian stars gets just Rs.30 lakhs and weren't allowed in auctions.I don't know why partiality exists in money matters.
     While famous english county is producing good international cricketers as their county system sounds fantastic as only 2 foreign players are allowed to play in a county team and they also have 2 division in all formats namely  elite and plate divisions and many local english players gets an opportunity to play in the league and also gets a chance to improve their techniques by sharing experiences with foreign stars. IPL  has only 9 teams,4 foreign players are allowed to play in a playing XI while english county has 20 teams with just 2 foreign players are allowed to play in playing XI.Then where is possibility improvement in indian cricket.
      BCCI should learn a lesson that they arenot here to attract audience and make money but they are here to encourage local talents and make a strong indian team.
       Atleast in the future there should be either more teams in ipl or the present ipl teams should  be scrapped and these rich ipl team owners should take care of the local state teams and these rich owners should supports all formats i.e 5 day test format,50-50 overs and t20 format.Foreign in each team should be restricted to 2 players in playing XI. If these doesn't happen india doesn't have a good future in cricket.So BCCI should change their policies for a better future
