American Premier League (APL) Cricket

ICC keen to install IPL model in USA

Jay Mir, the CEO of American Sports and Entertainment Group. Inc is coming up with a mega-show this October. APL or American Premier League is an idea that will envelop the American nation in the mentioned month. However, APL is unsanctioned by ICC and it believes that the Rebel American League will cause a lot of nuisance.

To combat the march of APL, I.S Bindra, Principal Advisor of ICC has advised US officials to explore a model akin to the IPL and set up a tournament in America. Such a model will succor from the fever of T20 cricket and certainly amass funds required for the development of cricket in America. Presently, only the South Asian contingent seems interested in the fame.

Mr. Bindra believes that regulating a rebellious enterprise would not be as successful as finding a plausible alternative to curb its growth. He cited the example of India where ICC has virtually nipped Rebel League ICL in the budding stage by sponsoring IPL (already an illustrious league within an year of its formation).

APL has already recruited the services of former legend Sir Richard Hadlee as an executive consultant.  It has also confirmed Richie Richardson for the post of Chief recruiter and Premium West Indies coach. All these are efforts to gain credibility as also to boost the set-up even further.

The American Rebel League will hold its matches at the Staten Island in New York and it has already converted a minor league stadium into a cricket stadium. Statue of Liberty and River Hudson would lord over the beautiful stadium.
