The first season of the Indian Premier League has been a great success... Unfortunately the England players were the only ones to miss out as ECB had not given permission. Dmitri Mascherenhas was the only one to obtain permission and is currently playing for the Rajasthan Royals. Seeing the great success of the IPL a few England players like Pieterson had already started complaining in the media and showed their willingness to play in the IPL. The latest information states that Pieterson has a bid of US 4 million dollars and more for a 3 year contract. This is the maximum as Dhoni got 1.5 million US dollars.
The undisclosed IPL franchise had said that he is ready to buy Pieterson at any price. So its all in the hands of ECB now. If ECB allows contracted players to play in the IPL then Pieterson and many other English players will feature in next years IPL.
