Raina warns IPL impact player rule tilts game too far in batters' favour

Former Indian cricketer Suresh Raina has raised concerns about the IPL's impact player rule, claiming it disproportionately advantages batters and drives up scores. He argued that the rule leaves bowlers with little room to compete on equal terms. Raina also advised Indian cricketers to avoid participating in overseas T20 leagues, stating that the IPL has grown into a world-class competition in its own right. He further observed that the standard of foreign T20 leagues has visibly declined in recent years compared to their earlier quality.
