As far as our country India is concerned, cricket is the most liked game, to the extent of madness among the children and youngsters. Wherever you move, you will find children with a bat & ball in hand. Because of lack of facilities, a new concept of underarm cricket has come into action. The reason appears to be very simple. There are restrictions on hitting the ball and it can be played in a very limited area. Therefore, it can be seen in Mumbai that most of the grounds have made a special court for underarm cricket, also called gully cricket.
Most of the young players having a natural talent have developed an interest in underarm cricket and have also made it their livelihood. Whenever they play, they are offered an amount as per their caliber. Such players register themselves on the internet site and they are divided into three categories, A,B & C; as per their caliber and they are priced accordingly. The game needs to be accorded importance because these boys cannot reach the national level of Overarm Cricket, as the opportunities are limited and a lot of facilities are required. Very interestingly, the boys have learned to control their bats, as they cannot hit the ball however they want. The player has to have a sense of bat control.
It is a chance for the upcoming cricketers to face an international standard opposition. It offers luxury prior to getting to that stage. It, therefore, allows them to be prepared when arriving on the international scene and gives them a taste of what is expected at the highest level. Having such a competitive tournament, in terms of player’s quality, means statistic taken from the tournament can represent the player’s caliber.
It works on the franchise system based on the American style of hiring players and transfer. The DPL is showing show how innovation in service can be appealing to the consumer, and how competition and globalization can bring improvements. The cursory glance showed many standouts were un-heard of India. DPL is a good opportunity for these players to enjoy the limelight of national and international audience. This would provide a steady stream of newly discovered players who can revitalize national teams.
