you’re absolutely correct. Aussies crashed out in the semis. I should have remembered that, considering I ponied up the dough to watch it online.

From this analysis of IPL’s business case on TOI

BCCI expects the franchisees to earn $1.5 million from gate money in every IPL match, but insiders say the figure is “exaggerated” and that the franchisee will be fortunate to get $1.5 million from 7 home matches at home. In fact, highly charged India-Pakistan one-day matches make around $3 to $4million.

IPL is expecting that people will pay exorbitant amounts to go watch the games.

However, based on IPL’s calculation, tickets will have to be sold for Rs 750 to Rs 1,000 per match for gate money to be of the estimated levels. Will the fans pay that much?

Looks like some “hype” is going on.
