The ascendency of India as an economic world power

Issues regarding the official recognition of Indian Cricket League (ICL) will be put forward once again in the upcoming ICC Executive Board meeting to be held in Dubai. ICL does not have official recognition of ICC because ICL, which is leveled as rebel league, is not recognized by BCCI, the regulatory board of Indian cricket. However, ICL, the brainchild of Essel group chairman Subhash Chandra, is hopeful about getting recognition of ICC. Subhash Chandra even threatened ICC to go for legal action, had ICL not been granted official recognition. He thinks that ICL should have the same status of IPL.
