I've just been watching IBNLive/CNN, which is one of the most informative Indian TV channels available on the web (and cricket-mad, needless to say). There has apparently been a fairly strong call from various quarters for the IPL to be delayed until after the Indian elections because of the need for increased security. I'm ashamed to say I don't know what the dates of the election are, but presumably this will have effects on the English championship.
The BCCI is also saying no team will tour Pakistan for at least 4-5 years.
What IBN calls "the attack on Team Lanka" was the first item on the news, followed by India's win against NZ and, a distant third, the controversy over the sale of items that belonged to Mahatma Gandhi.
