Should increase prize money. Even gully cricket org will give more than this. In MPL prize money is less and team expenses is more. Players and team owners wont get any benefit. Only one benefit, that we can see big cricket match.

Bengaluru, May 2: Former chief minister and Congress leader Siddaramaiah have urged the state government to arrange free-transport facilities to those stranded labourers and their family members to return their native places.

In a statement issued here on Friday, the former chief minister criticised the State Government for having decided to collect bur fare from them, ''three-times more than the regular fare''.
