Where is the black cloud to the silver IPL lining?

Though most people involved with the first season of the IPL have thought it to be a huge success, Greg Chappell is a little sceptical about its future. Where is the black cloud to all of this silver lining, he asks in the Times of India:

It is one thing to have a successful first tournament; it is another entirely to back it up in the second and future seasons. Expectations have been raised by the initial success, so the bar will be much higher from now on. Some of the older players will be that much further removed from the rough and tumble of international cricket and may find it tougher to back up while some of the rookies will be looked at more closely by opposing teams, supporters and the media. History says that not all players will survive the greater scrutiny and the higher expectations; their own as well as those of others.

The other danger to cricket that will spring from the overwhelming success of the IPL is that every country will race headlong into hosting Twenty20 tournaments of their own at the cost of other forms of the game. I only hope that history does not repeat itself. One-day Internationals are suffering from a surfeit. ODIs have been played around the world ad nauseum for the past 30 or so years without due regard for the health of the format and of Test cricket.
