IPL is adding two more teams which means we will have more matches in already heavy schedule ipl. I don't think players are going to have some rest in T20 leagues dominated year. India has done right thing by giving rest to king kohli in T20 series and first test against NZ. Lyer n Gill on day one have performed well.
They want to add more time which means the tournaments will be extended and i do not expect the quality of the matches to improve by increasing the number of teams, but the opposite will happen in situation like this. What ever it is we will see the big drama show and since the team members keeps changing curious to see how will captain the side for the two new teams.
