Does anyone still care about the IPL?

I'm wondering. The first season I watched out of curiousity, the second I watched a game or two because it was local. This year I didn't even know it had started and don't care.

Anyone else completely lost interest?

Yes I'm a fan. Nice to watch explosive entertaining cricket daily, with your favourite retired legends coming back to life, Gilchrist, Warne, Symonds and those guys. I'm not that of a follower though, I follow up international games most. Deacen Charges being my favourite. But Indians don't get tired of that, cricket frenzy nation.

I watched as many games as I could when it was here in SA. Now I couldn't care less.

I watch when I can, some really really good cricket plus with the legends playing you know you going to see class and not just brash smashing the ball about. I think its fantastic and the cheer leaders are great too! :D

I watch as much as i can. However in this early part of the tournament, if i miss a few games here and there, its not too much of an issue.

I watch every game I can.

I CARE!!!!! Awesome cricket.

What they said! ;) 40 overs of slog :)

And then with the margin for error virtually nil, to see the bowlers looking to become more exact in their ball placement. You start to see new skills being formed.

Some of the youngsters coming into the game and getting blooded on what is almost an international stage, awesome!

Real men watch test matches.

The 5 day game is still king for me, but this format has its place and is an absolute thrill to watch.

I've given it some thought and realized I still don't care.

And have you noticed the ads at the bottom of the screen? IPL in the cinemas in India and ad free. Man alive! They're passionate about the game there :)
