The Indian Premier League 2022 managed to put the focus back on cricket, even though TV viewership fell, and the entire league phase was played in only two cities and four stadiums. More importantly, it once again became a platform for the young and old, who were picked at low price value at the auctions to display their talent in the richest cricket league in the world and force the world to take notice.
