Indian Premier League (IPL): Business of IPL |

Facebook is the largest social networking site & people feel good to play with each other on a networking site. Online gaming has already become a craze for youngsters & now elder people are falling in this segment. IPL is a very big cricket event & people go mad for it. Surely, when facebook comes with IPL games, users will be eager to give a shot to it. And not only youngsters but also elder people will also go for it.

So, I think this IPL social games will be successful on facebook.

In India it has a still long way to go, but I have seen many of the younger employees addicted to facebook games that Kiran has mentioned. But that number is very less in India and India is the only country which is cricket crazy nation and anything on cricket here in India will workout fine, but most of them love to watch matches on TV and go the stadium rather than play social games online.....
