Much has
been said about Indian sports in general and cricket in particular since it
outranks in popularity, mass appeal and that undoubtedly makes it a
moneyspinner. Now, a sport, for the love of it, shouldn’t be exploited plainly
for its ability to raise money. But, having said that, unless the said sport is
able to be monetised, it won’t gather traction either. Which brings us to the
dynamics that have governed the way cricket has evolved over the years.
The game
as we know it, has been played initially in the form of Tests and that was many
decades ago when people had the time, patience and the discerning eye to watch,
admire and analyse the match’s outcome and turning points. What that goes on to
prove is that cricket as a game has been a topic of discussion among the
countries that were once British colonies and where cricket was introduced.
Thereon, cricket has seeped and ingrained itself into the culture and mores of
the respective cricketing nations. Boardroom analogies are incomplete without a
hint or terminology that doesn’t tie it back to the game. The sport of cricket
has been introduced
If one were a cricketer of some
stature, one would be an eligible bachelor, who will have a fan following and
anxious autograph seekers at hotel lobbies and airports. Being thronged at any
public event for photo-ops and the like. Given the public image that is automatically
attached, one tends to have another shot at fame by way of lucrative commercial
endorsements across all mediums. This being a team sport has also given
rise to the women’s team being equally appreciable in their performances as a
world force in overseas tournaments. Seldom has this been the case with any
other team sport in India. Given that there have been world beaters in
individual sporting disciplines in tennis, athletics, badminton and so on and
so forth.
The prevalence of cricket over
other games has also given rise and paved the path for mobile gaming consoles
and live scoring apps. The proliferation of which has captured the imagination
of the audience at large and gamers in particular and has been . Now, you can
truly be an armchair cricketer whatever the weather outside. Even the paucity
of open spaces in everyday conditions to knock a few balls and hit a boundary
has been overcome with mobile gaming answering the call. What’s more, the
emergence of OTT as the medium of choice among millennials and the flexibility
it offers to viewers has caught on well on the viewership front adapting well
to the transition.
This
brings us to TGPL aka TicketGoose Premier League! It is a one-of-a-kind mobile
cricket game. In fact, it can stake claim in being India’s first virtual
cricket strategy game. The APK introduced in the third week of June has been
warmly received as the new and prized addition in smartphones in Tamil Nadu, at
present. Where the game excels is in the scope for strategy that it offers
unlike other such offerings flooding the app market. Now, mind you, it’s not a
fantasy game and we mentioned “virtual” which means the players are fictional which
makes the challenge unique and interesting as ever. You, as a team owner, now
have a squad of players who can be trained, upskilled and made more evolved as
you progress in the league. TGPL will go on to progress into an eSport in the
coming years and the game is set to evolve in stages. Like they say about wine
and alcohol, as it ages, the taste and appreciation increases in the eyes of
the connoisseur – here being avid gamers and newer entrants who take to TGPL as
a fish to water.
