INDIAN PLAYERS WANT IPL CAP TO BE REMOVED


All the Indian players are annoyed about the cap that the team can spend on buying players in the IPL.The BCCI has fixed an amount or a cap that each franchisee can spend only upto 5 million dollars on buying players.Icon players like Dravid,Ganguly,Yuvraj,Dhoni and also Sachin can earn the maximum in IPL where there bids have been put up at 400,000 dollars.The players want the cap to be removed so that the bids can go high.This major tension is palpable on the players faces and this can hamper their preparation against the Srilanka.Also many Indian players feel that they should earn more money than Australian counterparts and the IPL seems to be embroiled in tension before it has even started.
