Indian Premier League has distracted the attention of Indian people from the huge defeat which India suffered at the hands of South Africa’, said former South African captain Kepler Wessels. “The way India lost would normally have caused far more of an outcry than it has, but the IPL has distracted people from that,”
Wessels, who will be coaching the Chennai Super Kings in the IPL, was speaking at a programme organized by broadcaster SuperSport. The broadcaster has acquired the rights to televise all 59 matches in the IPL series to sub-Saharan Africa and nearby islands.
