#3 IPL 2009 – shifted from India to South Africa
The second edition of the IPL was played in between 18 April and 24 May 2009 in South Africa since it coincided with the general elections back home. The IPL gave approximately US$100 million into South Africa's local economy.
It received record global television viewership and not just that, the stadiums also saw crowd even though only a handful of South African players played in the tournament. IPL 2 was won by the now defunct Deccan Chargers and Royal Challengers Bangalore ended as the runners-up.
IPL in South Africa was a great move to globalize cricket.
