Cutting Edge Technologies in IPL

Technology used in sports is often a compliment to human limitations, and it has in many ways improved games and their experience. It is important to remember though that also technology has got its constraints and isn't definitely exact. Hence there are various reasons to strive towards balance between technology and human capital in sports.

In this blog we aim to highlight the different technologies creating changes to the game and rules of the Indian Premier League (IPL), in addition to how technology is affecting all the groups of interests: players, viewers, coaches and decision makers.
