The 90s kids will remember the true joy of cricket when the whole family used to sit in front of the TV and cheer for team India, especially if the match was between India and Pakistan or Australia or England or Sri Lanka.

Now, with this IPL coming into the picture, cricket is far shifted from what the cricket league worships. People mostly confuse IPL with sports; however, it has become an ideal place to selling products. So here are 5 reasons that one should stop watch IPL matches.

Time waste: For more than one month, you watch IPL matches glued to your TV sets or, nowadays, on OTT platforms. After office, you come home and start watching Cricket matches rather than spend time on other activities like going to the gym, joining dance classes, join yoga etc.
 

47

Much of Cricket: Too much of everything is bad; likewise, too much of cricket can lead to losing interest. Sometimes, it affects cricketers and leads them to underperform for their countries like during ODI, T20 or during the World Cup.

57

Divorces/break-ups: Every evening, if you spend time in front of your mobile screen or TV sets, what do you expect? Rather than take your partner out for dinner, watch some romantic movies, cook for her etc, etc...

You got better options: Guys, for entertainment, you have better options starting from Netflix, Amazon Videos etc. Or read/watch Asianet articles.

Why to make them rich? The IPL season builds a stage for brands to encash upon that chance to develop IPL associated ads. Uff... and these commercials are omnipresent. Didn’t you get frustrated with those Dream11/MPL ads?
