The move was opposed by some of the franchises. "The broadcaster ( Star India ) had request (to change timings) and the GC considered the request during its meeting. After that we have received objections from a couple of franchises," Rajeev Shukla, chairman of IPL, told reporters here. As per the plan, The Board of Control for Cricket in India ( BCCI ) will increase respective cricket board's share to 20% of the players' fee, from 10% at present. "We have made a provision that whichever board provides its players for the entire duration (of IPL), we will pay the board 20%," Shukla said.When IPL had started in 2008, foreign boards were offered 10% share of their players' fee.
