New Delhi: The much-hyped Indian Premier League (IPL) received thumbs up from the Federation of International Cricketers' Association (FICA), with its Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Tim May on Thursday saying that he is satisfied with the contract offered by the organisers.
May studied the Long Form Player Agreement of the IPL and expressed his satisfaction. However, he said that he is eager to see the final draft of the agreement after which he could recommend to the cricketers to enter into the agreement. "I am satisfied in principle with the form of the IPL player contract. I am waiting to see a copy of the final draft of the agreement, following which I anticipate recommending to our members that the agreement is satisfactory for players to enter," May said in a statement from FICA.
The FICA was established in 1998 to co-ordinate the activities of all national players' associations which protect the interests of professional cricketers throughout the world.
