I really think it’s going to be a hit. I think it’s going to win over a lot of baseball fans too. What’s really going to decide the growth is if we can get kids/teenagers to start playing it outside of the typical southeast Asian fanbase. I truly think we could have some of the best homegrown talent in the next decade. Baseball players would love to play to I think.

So with the help of BCCI, they destroyed every possibility of ICL to Happen ICL went bankrupt few years later, while IPL was the BCCI's final weapon.

    Cricket needs more international teams and more players playing for their respective countries. If ICC fails to grow this sport and bring in more nations then cricket will lose its appeal, especially in India.

      You can argue with me, but there's no denying that Franchise Cricket is the future just like Football.
      Don't bring the "Playing for the Country" issue.
      Cricketers are professional and most have very short career except some legends of the game.
      But they can earn by playing Franchise Cricket and have a prosperous future after retirement.
      Only International Cricket should be ICC tournaments.
      Only 11 players play in a match, but in Cricket Leagues almost 70-100 local player plays, get money and exposure.
