Zelig Posted April 15, 2010 Posted April 15, 2010 Mumbai, April 14, 2010: Nothing makes India's heart beat collectively faster like the IPL and to celebrate this year’s stellar tournament, the best players and performances will be honoured at the inaugural IPL Awards at the Grand Hyatt in Mumbai on Friday 23 April 2010. The glittering awards ceremony will be the perfect entrée to the conclusion of the tournament, with the best from the DLF IPL to be applauded across 22 categories. From pure excellence in batting, bowling, fielding, to the most stylish player, best stadium and commentator, the awards will become a highlight of the IPL. Innovative categories have also been included with the most fan-friendly cricketer to be named, and a special award given where each of the IPL team captains will vote on which retired Indian cricket legend they would have loved to have in their squad. IPL Chairman and Commissioner, Lalit Modi said, “IPL has evolved into a uniting force in world cricket and signaled a new era in sports entertainment over the past three seasons. The IPL Awards is the crowning jewel and a fitting event to recognise the best of this season’s breathtaking tournament.†IPL continues to set the standard and this event will further confirm our standing as one of world sports' true innovators. Host Karan Johar will be joined by special guest co-host Shah Rukh Khan, with the Bollywood superstar set to take the eight IPL captains out of their comfort zone in his own unique fashion. More
