"20/20 Cricket" has done a reverse colonisation of the sport, both in terms of player incentives and "Cricket betting". The "Indian Premier League" invented in India as an answer to its own domestic competitor the "Indian Cricket League" has made "Millionaires" of common cricketeers and a source of gambolling revenue for International legalised betting corporations like "LADBROKES".
Cricket was the oldest British invented sport, the source of inspiration to "American Baseball" and even "Soccer" in the 1800's as its "Game Rule's Books" was the first to be "Copyrighted".
Today, the sport has maximum popularity and earnings in Asian country's , India being the most dominant Country with the richest "Cricket Club Bankbalance" but ironically a country where "CRICKET BETTING" is illegal.
Britain has declined as a "World Cricket Power" but has managed to rake in the money through its legalised gambolling sites, most famous being "LADBROKES".
Its only a matter of time before administrators of cricket in India legalise the "BETTING Corporations".
