After Commercialization of IPL2, Lalit Modi has already started looking further. He wants to have 2 IPLs in a year - is this similar to the 'Golden Goose' story?
Already, I am not sure if the ICC T20 World Cup in UK will find any viewers? The viewers, just like the players will suffer from T20 fatigue.
Moving to newer venues is a good idea but not playing 2 tournaments in a year without the sanction of ICC. Who knows? Lalit Modi might promise ICC a revenue stream from each IPL so that they will provide a 'Window' to the IPL. Very likely.
Then, as Chris Gayle has predicted, test match will die a slow death - though cricket-lovers like me will not like it one bit.

Lalit Modi don't get toooo excited now,2 IPL's a year? unless they are short and sweet, it will get rather boring.
The recent IPL in South Africa went on for too long, make it a 15day match only. Being a short match people are more likely to watch and the excitement will be grater just like the 20 20.
Just think of all the extra time you will have on your hands to play with around with the cheer leaders!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
