No they haven't given entry to next year's competition but they have applied for it and hopeful they will be allowed FC KERALA didn't had a good season in KPL so technically they are not eligible for next year
First time in history IL2 will be on national television, 1Sports have bagger the telecast rights from FSDL, with Instat as producers who will use new state of art AI technology which will allow Russian experts and technicians to remotely switch cameras and create highlights from safety of Russia. Camera work will be done by locals.
AIFF should promote 2 teams this time. All teams' last season got completely wasted and now all the 5 participants of the mini-tournament have made some serious signings. It will be kind of a compensation to them.
India is not a small European country or having a successful product like EPL/La Liga.
Lot of countries like Thailand, Iran, Romania, Uzbekistan, Ukraine have cut down on teams in recent years.
Sometimes it is good to have quality over quantity. In a country where clubs come and go every 3 years - 16 teams at most with good fixtures,Cup tournament and sound 2nd division with Pro/Rel.
