Wonderful to know that because this mini IPL will help the BCCI to find out a more talented player. As of now, he is doing his job by shuffling the players in matches. Definitely Ganguly's aim is to bring younger talented cricketers and it will surely help the nations.
The BCCI has the money to conduct a tournament like that and make it a successful one and if they are creating a mini IPL and if there is a champions league for the franchise leagues then it will create interest in the cricket followers as the matches will be competitive and considering how the Champions league was not able to attract the visitors they were expecting and i am not sure whether they folded because of the low viewership and if the BCCI is able to conduct that then it might get the attention they are looking.
The so called champions league (not sure about the name) is going to be counter productive. There is a lot of franchise T20 cricket going on, and the viewer interest is declining due to the overkill. The average attendance per match is going down, even for established leagues such as the Big Bash League of Australia. And within a few months, the stats from IPL 2020 will confirm this.
