The 2009 Indian Premier League season, abbreviated as IPL 2 or the 2009 IPL, was

the second season of the Indian Premier League, established by the Board of Control for
Cricket in India (BCCI) in 2007. The tournament was hosted by South Africa and was
played between 18 April and 24 May 2009.[2] IPL 2 was the second biggest cricket
tournament in the world, after the Cricket World Cup,[3] and was forecast to have an
estimated television audience of more than 200 million people in India alone.[4]

Concerns were raised in India that the tournament was the prime target of terrorists.[5]
Because the second season of the IPL coincided with multi-phase 2009 Indian general
elections, the Government of India refused to commit security by Indian paramilitary
forces. As a result, the BCCI decided to host the second season of the league outside
India.[6] On 24 March 2009, the BCCI officially announced that the second season of the
IPL will be held in South Africa.[7] Though India did not host the second season, the
format of the tournament remained unchanged from the 2008 season format.[8]

IMP AS BROADCASTING OF EVENTS AND REVENUE GENERATED

Relocating the tournament posed extreme logistical challenges for the BCCI since more
than 10,000 cricketers and other staff members needed to be flown from India to South
Africa within a span of a few weeks.[9] The IPL injected approximately US$100 million
into South Africa's local economy.[10] In addition, the BCCI signed a Rs. 8,200 crores
(US$1.63 billion) contract with Multi Screen Media to broadcast matches live from South
Africa to India.[11]

The IPL was hosted successfully in South Africa and was hailed as an "extraordinary"
accomplishment.[12] The tournament was particularly praised for globalizing cricket[13] and
had set record television viewership.[14] The tournament was won by Deccan Chargers
while the Bangalore Royal Challengers were declared as runners-up.[15]

CHANGES BROUGHT IN RULE OF IPL

The number of international players allowed in any one squad was increased from 8 to 10
although the number allowed in any playing 11 remained at 4.[16] The players purchase
cap was increased from 5 to 7 million[clarification needed]. The BCCI also negotiated with the
ECB to allow English cricketers to participate in the 2009 edition of the IPL. English
players were allowed to play for 21 days in between their tour to West Indies and the
subsequent return tour.[17]

The 2009 Indian Premier League season, abbreviated as IPL 2 or the 2009 IPL, was

[edit] Changes
Some of the rules were changed for the 2009 edition of the IPL. The number of
international players allowed in any one squad was increased from 8 to 10 although the
number allowed in any playing 11 remained at 4.[16] The players purchase cap was
increased from 5 to 7 million[clarification needed]. The BCCI also negotiated with the ECB to
allow English cricketers to participate in the 2009 edition of the IPL. English players
were allowed to play for 21 days in between their tour to West Indies and the subsequent
return tour.[17]

[edit] Pre-season trades and signings

[edit] Trade window

Teams were reluctant to trade initially due to the troubled economic times and the general
desire to concentrate on building a well-rounded team as opposed to making profits out of
trades.[18] Kolkata were initially inclined to present Pakistani express bowler Shoaib
Akhtar for trade but later withdrew from a deal.[19][not in citation given]

[edit] Signings

Delhi Daredevils scouts prompted management to sign David Warner early in the off-
season

With most international players are (barring members of the England squad and Indian
Cricket League players) signing up for the first season on multi-season contracts, the
emphasis for off-season signings for 2009 were possible up-and-coming young players
from international domestic circuits. Some teams, including the Delhi Daredevils sent
scouts to domestic and 'emerging player' matches held in Australia to sign up players.[20]

[edit] Withdrawals

Other players opted to withdraw from this particular season from the IPL, but have not
ruled out returning in the future. In most cases, the reason for withdrawal was that the
players wanted a break from the hectic international schedule. There have also been
withdrawals due to injury and also Pakistanis who have had their contracts terminated or
suspended due to tensions between India and Pakistan since the Mumbai Terrorist
Attacks.However, as the tournament was eventually moved to South Africa, it was
perceived as somewhat unfair towards the players, who had made such a substantial
influence in the first edition of the IPL. Most withdrawals were Australian international
players, for whom the IPL would be the only break between a series against Pakistan and
the upcoming long tour of England which would include The Ashes series. Withdrawals
included:

• Michael Hussey – Chennai Super Kings

• Ricky Ponting – Kolkata Knight Riders
• Jerome Taylor – Kings XI Punjab
• Shoaib Akhtar – Kolkata Knight Riders
• Misbah-ul-Haq – Bangalore Royal Challengers
• Shahid Afridi – Deccan Chargers
• Shoaib Malik – Delhi Daredevils
• Mohammad Asif – Delhi Daredevils
• Umar Gul – Kolkata Knight Riders
• Mohammad Hafeez – Kolkata Knight Riders
• Salman Butt – Kolkata Knight Riders
• Kamran Akmal – Rajasthan Royals
• Younis Khan – Rajasthan Royals
• Sohail Tanvir – Rajasthan Royals
• Shaun Tait – Rajasthan Royals
• Shane Watson – Rajasthan Royals

[edit] Build-up

Kevin Pietersen was signed for a record 1.55 million USD by Bangalore Royal
Challengers and made captain of the team

The media build-up to the second season of the IPL was largely centred around security
concerns, but another focus was Kolkata Knight Riders' coach John Buchanan's radical
four-captain plan, which was created to utilize the knowledge of Sourav Ganguly, Chris
Gayle, Brendon McCullum and Brad Hodge together as captains. The plan met its fair
share of criticism and approval[citation needed], with critics claiming the plan would lead to too
much conflict of opinion on the field while supporters claimed that Twenty20 is suited to
such radical ideas. Adding to Knight Riders' woe was the break out of the fake IPL
blogger scandal.

Much of the other hype around the IPL was the impact of the new-look Bangalore Royal
Challengers with their new captain Kevin Pietersen. Bangalore team owner Vijay Mallya,
disappointed with the team's 7th place performance last season and its categorization as a
test team[citation needed], sought radical changes and signed Pietersen for a record 1.55 million
USD contract before making him captain of the side (replacing Rahul Dravid who
captained last season as the icon player of the Royal Challengers). The Challengers also
acquired hard-hitting batsmen Robin Uthappa, Ross Taylor and Jesse Ryder.

Some of the other topics of discussion were the potential benefit teams with a large
number of South African players, like the Challengers, could gain from local knowledge
of the conditions[citation needed]. There was also some concern about how teams like Kings XI
Punjab could deal with the mass exodus of some of its core unit during the series due to
international duty and how teams would deal with the loss of Pakistani players who in
some cases (eg. Sohail Tanvir with the Rajasthan Royals) played a large part in their
teams' fortunes last season[citation needed].

[edit] Warm-up games

The match between Cape Cobras and Rajasthan Royals was billed as the Clash of the
Champions due to both teams being champions of their country's Twenty20 leagues.
However, as an IPL warmup, both teams fielded understrength teams in order to try out
new blood, with only 4 of Rajasthan's 2008 title-winning team playing the warm-up.
Nashua Cape Cobras were the victors.

April 9. Kolkata won by nine wickets, with icon Sourav Ganguly hitting an unbeaten 61
and rising star Cheteshwar Pujara hitting an unbeaten 66. However, Pujara was injured
for the rest of the tournament and didn't play a game.[2]

The Board of Control for Cricket in India, or BCCI, is the apex governing body for
cricket in India, headquartered at Mumbai. The board was formed in December 1928 as
the national governing body for all cricket in India. BCCI replaced Calcutta Cricket Club.
It is a society, registered under the Tamil Nadu Societies Registration Act. The BCCI
often uses government-owned stadiums across the country at a nominal annual rent. It is
a private club consortium. Basically to become a member of a state-level association, you
need to be introduced by another member and also pay an annual fee. The state-level
clubs select their representatives (secretaries) who in turn select the BCCI officials. As
for any private club, BCCI or the state-level associations are not required to make their
balance sheets public.

As a member of the International Cricket Council (ICC), it has the authority to select
players, umpires and officials to participate in international events and exercises total
control over them. Without its recognition, no competitive cricket involving BCCI-
contracted Indian players can be hosted within or outside the country.

[edit] Logo
The BCCI logo is derived from the emblem of the Order of the Star of India, India's
highest order of chivalry during the British Raj and also its Coat of Arms.

[edit] Membership
The BCCI has 27 state association members across five zones (viz. North Zone, South
Zone, East Zone, West Zone and Central Zone) in India.

Some states have more than one association. Maharashtra state, for instance, has
Maharashtra Cricket Association, Mumbai Cricket Association and Vidarbha Cricket
Association and Gujarat state has Gujarat Cricket Association, Baroda Cricket
Association and Saurashtra Cricket Association. Railways and Services are also
members.

[]edit] President of B.C.C.I

The post of President of B.C.C.I is considered a highly prestigious post due to the
popularity of the game in the country and the financial clout of the organization. Over the
years influential politicians and businessmen have occupied the post of President.

• Duleep Trophy

[edit] History
In 1911, an all-India cricket team visited England for the first time, sponsored and
captained by the Maharaja of Patiala, and featuring the best cricketers of the time. It was
in 1926 that two representatives of the Calcutta Cricket Club travelled to London to
attend a couple of meetings of the Imperial Cricket Conference, predecessor to the
current International Cricket Council. Although technically not an official representative
of Indian cricket, it was allowed to attend by Lord Harris, chairman of the conference. An
outcome of the meeting was the MCC's decision to send a team to India, led by Arthur
Gilligan, who had captained England in The Ashes. The Hindus, as well as the all-India
team, performed impressively during this tour.

In a meeting with the Maharaja of Patiala and others, Gilligan praised Indian cricket and
promised to press for its inclusion in the ICC if all the promoters of the game in the land
came together to establish a single controlling body. An assurance was given and a
meeting held in Delhi on November 21, 1927, attended by delegates from Sind, Punjab,
Patiala, Delhi, United Provinces, Rajputana, Alwar, Bhopal, Gwalior, Baroda, Kathiawar
and Central India. A consensus was reached to create a board for control of cricket in
India. Another meeting, on December 10, 1927, brought a unanimous decision to form a
"provisional" board of control to represent cricket in India.

In December 1928, the BCCI was formed despite having only six associations affiliated
to it as against the earlier-decided eight. R.E. Grant Govan was made its first president.

In December 2005, the Board released "The Cricket Board in the 21st Century, A Vision
Paper", which set out ambitions and responsibilities for both the immediate and the long-
term future of cricket in India. "Frankly," it said, "the question being asked is, as the
richest body in world cricket, has it fulfilled its obligations towards the players and
paying public? For that we all need to introspect and touch our hearts before saying 'yes,
we have'."[1] Almost three years later, Ajay S Shankar of Cricinfo compared the paper
with subsequent fact and decided that the Board had failed in most respects to fulfil its
stated obligations.[2]

"The buzzword," the paper had adjudged, "should be transparency. There can't be a better
start to the new-look board than resolve that everything we do from here on will be
transparent and in the game's and public interest, be it election or allotting television
rights or the team selection."[1] According to Shankar, however,

Except for a few influential BCCI officials and television executives, nobody knows what
transpired during the hectic negotiations that led to Nimbus bagging the home television rights in
2006, and Sony walking away with the rights to telecast the IPL. The selectors were gagged early
last year, which put paid to what little "transparency" there was in team selection. And the less
said about the recent elections the better: a day after the new office-bearers announced the
country's first paid selection panel, one of the five new selectors had yet to be officially informed
about his appointment.[2]

[edit] Office bearers and controversy

The BCCI is India's richest sporting body. The BCCI's constitution provides for annual
elections at its Annual General Meeting (AGM) for all posts, with a bar on re-election of
an incumbent president beyond two consecutive years, "provided that the General Body
may in its discretion re-elect the same person as president for the third consecutive year".
The President of BCCI is Shashank Manohar (elected 29 September, 2008). N.
Srinivasan is the secretary.

All the office-bearers for the year 2004-05, were elected at the annual general meeting of
the Board held in Kolkata.

On 10 January 2005, the Supreme Court of India ordered the removal of Jagmohan
Dalmiya from the post of patron-in-chief of BCCI and also asked the board to complete
its annual general meeting (AGM) which had been adjourned on 30 September 2004.

The legality of the office-bearer's election at the board's annual general meeting (AGM)
held on 29 September 2004 is subjudice.

[edit] Tiff with ICC

In recent times the BCCI has been at odds with the ICC on Future Tours Program, it has
formed unilateral arrangements to allow more series between India and Australia and
England.

Recently the ICC and BCCI are at loggerheads over the WADA, "Whereabouts clause"[3]

[edit] Finances
BCCI currently has the highest income of any national cricket board. Its income has
increased manifold in 2007-08 and crossed Rs 1000.41 crore, as compared to Rs 651.81
crore in 2006-07, leading to a surplus of Rs 303.15 crore.[4]. The global media rights for
international cricket to be held in India between March 2006 and March 2010 were
awarded to production house Nimbus for US$612 Million.[5]. Official kit sponsorship
rights for 5 years from 2006 to 2010 inclusive were awarded to Nike for US$43
Million[6]. While Air Sahara became the official Indian cricket team sponsor for a period
of four years at a cost of US$70 Million [7]. The media rights for 25 neutral venue one-day
matches to be played over the next 5 years were awarded to Zee Telefilms for US$219.15
Million[8]. Business Standard [9] reports that it will get another Rs 2,000 crore ($450
million) from the sale of other rights, including hotel, travel and ground sponsorship.

The BCCI has recently established an inter-city cricket league, the Indian Premier League
in limited-overs and Twenty20 format. It is structured along the lines of other
professional leagues such as the English Premier League, complete with relegations and
promotions. The league has recruited several prominent overseas cricketers and will have
separate TV, internet, mobile, merchandising, sponsorship and ground signage rights.
BCCI marketing director Lalit Modi predicted that it would become the single largest
revenue earning avenue for BCCI after its establishment[10]. On 12 September, 2006
BCCI announced that it will spend $347 Million (Rs. 16 Billion) over the subsequent one
year to upgrade the cricket stadiums around the country. [11][12]

Finally DLF IPL Series in South Africa is Over. Now, lets talk about who made how
much money, after all, its all about making money. It is too early to comment as balance
sheet is yet to be released by teams.
Its might be true that the winner gets more prize money, but, its not the only money they
get, they get a share from the sale copyrights Broadcasting by BCCI, Advertising is the
other part where they each team makes a lot of money, and the other way money from the
sale of Tickets.If IPL has stood all you thought you knew about cricket on its head, it has
done the same with finances too. In a year when franchisees were complaining about
shifting how to South Africa would make a mess of their budgets, each one of them will
make a profit.

If that’s not strange enough, try this: The two finalists, Royal Challengers and Team
Hyderabad, will make a fraction of the profit that bottom-of-table Knight Riders will,
even if you take prize money into account.

The main reason for the healthier bottomlines is a jump in the share of revenues from
broadcasting. Last year, each franchisee got Rs 25 crore from IPL as its share of the
central pool. This year, that has risen to Rs 67.50 crore each.

BCCI’s profit too has apparently jumped to Rs 477 crore from Rs 350 crore last year.
Sony Max is also likely to be in the black this year.

IPL franchisees who had been complaining about the event being shifted to South Africa
are in for a surprise: Every single team stands to make a profit from this year’s
tournament.

Had the matches been organized in India, it’s likely the teams profits would have been
even higher because of higher receipts from ticket and merchandise sale, which have
averaged Rs 8 crore and Rs 50 lakh respectively in South Africa.

In 2008, teams like Knight Riders, Mumbai Indians and Team Delhi earned around Rs 20
crore from ticket sales alone as the capacity of their home stadiums was large enough to
accommodate over 70,000 and the crowds just poured in.

According to a report by equity research firm IIFL, Team Jaipur will make the highest
profit of Rs 35.1 crore in the group matches of the second edition of the tournament.
Jaipur had also made the second-highest profit of Rs 14.50 crore in 2008, including the
Rs 4.50 crore ($1 million) prize money.

Knight Riders, which finished lowest in the league table during the qualifying round in
South Africa, will nevertheless end up with the third-highest profit of Rs 25.8 crore in the
second edition of IPL.

In fact, the only semifinalist which also stands to make over Rs 20 crore in profits is
Delhi.

This is despite the fact that prize money in the IPL is a sizeable amount, with Rs 4.8 crore
for winner, Rs 2.4 crore for the runners-up and 1.2 crore each for the losing semifinalists.

For those who didn’t get past the league stage, the sums are correspondingly smaller - Rs
80 lakh for the team that finished fifth (Kings XI Punjab), Rs 70 lakh for the sixth placed
(Jaipur), Rs 50 lakh for the seventh (Mumbai Indians) and Rs 40 lakh for the lowest one.

The healthy bottomlines are a happy change from last year when besides Knight Riders
and Jaipur, Team Chennai just scraped into the black due to its Rs 2.25 crore prize money
for the runners-up position, according to a highly placed source.

What has helped the IPL and franchisees is essentially the re-awarding of the
broadcasting rights. The renegotiated contract was for $1.64 billion (Rs 8,200 crore) for
nine years -- a jump of 90% from the original figure.

IPL 2 beats revenue in BCCI

Intake from the second edition of the tournament may go up by 30 to 40 per cent from
last year. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is expected to see a 30 to 40
per cent jump in revenues from the second edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL)
tournament over the first edition held in India last year. Profits, however, are expected to
increase marginally.
Early assessments by senior IPL executives show that the cricket body is expected to earn
Rs 450 crore to Rs 500 crore as revenue. But owing to higher expenses incurred on the
36-day tournament, which was relocated to South Africa owing to security concerns in
India, profits could be Rs 300 crore to Rs 350 crore, against Rs 305 crore in IPL-1.
The BCCI’s main source of earnings will also come from the renegotiated broadcasting
rights with Multi Screen Media or MSM (owners of SET MAX channels) and World
Sport Group (WSG). In March, BCCI and MSM-WSG reached an out-of-court settlement
under which BCCI will be paid Rs 8,200 crore over the next nine years for the telecast
rights of IPL.
The telecast rights are shared in an 80:20 ratio in favour of the eight franchise teams for
the first five tournaments. Later, the ratio changes to 60:40, also in favour of the franchise
team owners.
A back-of-the-envelope calculations show that BCCI will earn around Rs 183 crore in
broadcasting rights and another Rs 190 crore as franchise fees, plus Rs 100 crore to Rs
150 crore from advertising. However, IPL sources said that the accountants will have to
factor in the conversion cost of the rupee to the South African rand.
Meanwhile, the eight franchisee teams are said to have collectively made a profit of Rs
225-240 crore, early estimates show.
Last year, only two IPL teams, Kolkata Knight Riders and Rajasthan Royals made cash
profits. This year, the main source of income for the eight franchisee teams comes from
the revised broadcasting rights fees that works out to around Rs 70 crore per team. The
main expenses of the eight teams were only two —franchise fees to BCCI and player
fees.
