If the IPL is to be open to foreign players, it must be open to all foreign players. For a government to decide who should or should not be in the playing XI, and withhold permission to host the matches on this count, is plain wrong. The IPL organisers evidently took the easy way out. Taking the matches out of Chennai would have involved greater costs than keeping the Sri Lankan players out of the city. Not too long ago, when India's relations with Pakistan were at an all-time low, the cricketing authorities worked behind the scenes and prevailed upon team owners not to bid for any Pakistani player. But now, the IPL governing council does not have even this fig-leaf. _______________________________

a.It is not just cricketing logic that is at stake here.

b.The arm-twisting is in the open.

c.Teams that put their money on Sri Lankan stars are at a huge disadvantage.

d.It is unfortunate how sports has now been turned into a vehicle of jingoism and ethnic affinities.
