Already the success of IPL T20 has lead to almost all the countries announcing the launching of their own versions of the IPL. Australia, South Africa, Pakistan, England have all launched the domestic version of their own IPL T20 tournaments.
Players contracted with IPL can also be contracted to play in several of these tournaments. The winners of all these tournmanets then meet in another grand tournament called the Champions League T20. A conflict of interest can arise here. For example several players who were playing for Rajasthan Royals and Chennai Super Kings in - last edition's finalists in IPL T20 also were playing for their locals teams from South Africa and Australia which also qualified for the Chamions league. Now, these players had to choose between two teams. In future it is expected these differences will be smoothed out as a more regular calendar is established for the several domestic T20 tournaments.
Coming to debate on whether Test Cricket will die out. Last few encounters between India, Australia, South Africa and England have proved that in fact IPL T20 has contributed to players becoming more pro-active about chasing big totals and getting the batsman out in lesser number of overs.
