so players like stuart law, Ian Harvey, hemang badani, shabir ahmed would have to wear pink kits?? rofl... Delhi Jets seems to be underdogs here.. Chris Carins for Chandigarh:dance::two_thumbs_up:

[Predator_05]

Underdogs ? They have the worst team by far. Chandigarh and Hyderabad are the favorites.

[Cricketics]

yaa hyderbad or Chandi would dominate this tourny.. they should have balanced out the squad.. like quality overseas players in each squad... rather then fitting all good outsiderz in one team..

[Predator_05]

This tournament runs from Nov. 30th 'til Dec. 15th. Stupid organisation. Most of the Indian public will be following IND vs PAK so many won't take notice

[Dravid]

mumbai will rule this too.. :P

>This tournament runs from Nov. 30th 'til Dec. 15th. Stupid organisation. Most of the Indian public will be following IND vs PAK so many won't take notice I dont think they are that stupid....The games will start in the evening, by then test match day will be over.

thats not that bad teams at all actually. considering this will be the first twenty20 tournament since the tremendous success that was the world cup people will be intrested in watching it. Not to mention the clear advantage it has in organisation of it all agaisnt the BCCI. having said that though its a completely diffrent proposition when Mumbai team for IPL will be announced. Sachin and Hayden to open the batting followed by ponting then rohit sharma then Sangakkara, opening bowlers Brett Lee and Zaheer Khan .....now that is a team and a half

[DaRealPathan]

Hyderabad is a mini Pakistan team...

Has sachin joined IPL ? There was news that the big three are upset with the BCCI for offering the Indian trio much lesser than the other retired players from other countries......ghar ki murgi daal barabar ........

Right. They are very clever. They have figured out ppl will watch a full day of Test cricket, then continue to watch their ICL match, and then go to sleep and get up and watch next day's Test cricket etc :D
