Jayasuriya thumps Chennai

In a match that was marked for Sachin Tendulkar’s comeback, Sanath Jayasuriya stole the thunder with a sizzling century to set up a nine wicket win against the Chennai Super Kings. Put into bat, Chennai lost early wickets as they were reduced to 46 for 4 by the ninth over and it almost seemed over [...]

Rajasthan Royals

One look at the Rajasthan Royals team and one would have thought that this is the weakest team in the first season of the Indian Premier League. However, all that changed after the first auction, when many of the players that got signed up, made absolute sense for this format of the game. Incidentally, this [...]

Mumbai Indians

Reliance Industries’ Mukesh Ambani’s bid of $111.9 million to own the team rights of the Mumbai team – later christened as the Mumbai Indians – made it the costliest team in the Indian Premier League (IPL) auction. Add to that, stalwarts like Sachin Tendulkar, Sanath Jayasuriya and Shaun Pollock to go along with the eccentric [...]

Kolkota Knight Riders

The biggest USP for the Kolkata Knight Riders side is the owner himself. Shah rukh Khan has the capability in him, to pull the crowds to the ground by the virtue of his persona, something that can be easily gauged by the fact that the Kolkata Knight Riders’ team was the first one to release [...]

Kings XI Punjab

Apart from the Kolkata Knight Riders, this is the other team that has the Bollywood glam quotient attached with it, in the form of Preity Zinta, one of the co-owners of the team. Apart from that, the Kings XI Punjab team is owned by Ness Wadia, Karan Paul and Dabur-man Mohit Burman. The four of [...]

Delhi DareDevils

If there was ever an Indian Premier League side that is very reminiscent of their corresponding Ranji team, it has to be the Delhi DareDevils squad. With seven cricketers from the Delhi Ranji team playing for this squad it is a great start for the marketing and promotion team of the squad. And that is [...]

Deccan Chargers – Hyderabad

The verdict for the Deccan Chargers was unanimous before the tournament; they were quite simply the pre-tournament favourites. And why not? With a reasonably strong bowling line up, and a overtly powerful batting one, it would be hard to imagine Deccan Chargers not make it to the semi-finals, if not go all the way to [...]

Chennai Super Kings

The costliest cricketer of the first season of the IPL and the captain of the Indian ODI and T20 teams, had been signed up by Chennai Super Kings, so was a cricketer with the highest Test and ODI average in contemporary cricket. If you add a Mathew Hayden, Stephen Fleming, Jacob Oram and an Albie [...]

Bangalore Royal Challengers

When I first heard that Vijay Mallya has spent almost $112 million to own the Bangalore Royal Challengers team, I thought, here is a chance for Mallaya to redeem himself into picking up a better team than what he did for Force India. What followed thereafter was something that was very surprising, the team that [...]
