Enough Is Enough

The recent one-day series between England and India in India drew surprisingly sparse crowds, especially for the last two-three games. The site of half-empty stadiums in Mumbai and Kolkata suggest that perhaps there is a saturation point for cricket in the country and that the principle of if you play them, they will come, no longer holds true. I can’t remember in recent living memory seeing stadiums half-empty in a one-day and t-20 internationals. To see vast empty spaces in Wankhede and then Eden Gardens only means that the overkill of cricket is having its effect and the spectators are finally saying enough is enough.
Will boredom drive India's cricket fans to supporting other sports, finally?
