BCCI was up in arms against the Indian coach who suggested that India lost because their players were tired and injured after IPL-2. They arrogantly brushed aside the reasoning and agrued that the players of the other countries too participated in IPL-2.

 

Well, while many players of several countries had participated in IPL-2, all Indian players were involved. And due to political reasons Pakistani players were not allowed in IPL-2. See the effect - Pakistan, the underdogs, have won the tournament!

 

IPL effect therefore can be very much true and the Shylocks of the BCCI may please take note.
