IPL over?

6 weeks of "cricketainment" and then all of a sudden its over, the carnival is over.
My mum can watch her stupid serials without having to hassle for the remote(its not like it works though but having the remote is a moral victory in itself), as for me i m having withdrawal symptoms!. I have taken to watching old tamil movies they put in ktv at around 10 o' clock.But then IPL was so much more fun.I guess cricket will never be the same again.Test cricket maybe awesome for those bloody "purists" but for me T20 is infinitely better. Who wants to watch Rahul Dravid play all day and score 60 runs?.
But did IPL live upto the hype? I think yes.Before it started i thought it was one miserable efoort by Lalit Modi to emulate EPL, i didn't think it would be so much fun.As far as Sony is concerned IPL was a huge success story, nothing ever had such high TRP ratings barring KBC.IPL was huge and left an impact for sure. Love it or hate it, you certainly can't ignore it!
