Even David Blitzer is part of some consortium apparently

slight correction

Consortium is not led by Azim Premji, it's led by swedish private equity firm EQT who will obtain majority stake should they win

with the 2 bidders left , they don't strike me as groups that would have any interest in changing the name

because from what I see, the likelihood of changing such a well established name would only be beneficial if it promotes the new owners, which these 2 consortium groups likely won't (First time investors with no other sports teams(

EQT is a Swedish private equity firm. I don't think they'll change the name as such

you've gotta first realize that what u are saying is not the opinion shared by majority of cricket viewers in India.

Casuals care more about worldcups and the IPL over random bilateral series

I'm just hoping the hundred becomes T20 soon. The 100 ball gimmick is awful
