BCCI is so insecure about players abandoning national matches that they have a blanket ban policy on non-retired Indians partaking in foreign franchises. Similarly, Afghanistan Cricket Board took action against players who opted for IPL and league cricket. If it wasn't for these authoritarian rules and regulations set up by these corrupt cricket bodies, national cricket, test cricket in particular, would have been mostly dead a long time ago.
Personally, I care more about my IPL team winning than whoever wins the world cup. I know many more at my Mumbai-based T1 firm who think alike. How widespread is this phenomenon? I suspect many are scared to admit because of potential backlash by nationalists.
