Didn't add me in knight riders

You're there mate.

 

[NZTailender]

Chennai and Kings for me.

Chennai and Kings for me.

One team mate. Lock in Chennai?

 

[NZTailender]

Yeah. Fleming, Oram, Hussey, Ntini, Dhoni & Murali in one side. It's as close to a Favourite XI as I'll get!

Its like choosing between your parents.

My dad's from Hyderabad, my mum's from Bangalore.

I think the deciding factor is that Symonds is playing for Hyderabad though, so that makes Bangalore an easy pick.

Just discovered that coverage of the IPL in the UAE is via an arabic language pay tv channel

Cant imagine too many expats (who make up 80% of the population here) will shell out US$60 per month to subscribe to a system where they cant understand 59/60 channels

 

[GGG]

Chennai for me since it has the only kiwi available for the entire tournament.

 

[SirBloody Idiot]

Put me down for Kings XI Punjab on second thoughts.

Solid looking side.

 

[99*]

Hope this game is going to be worth staying up till 2.00 am to watch.

I'll put my name down for Chennai.

Is it on Sky?

 

[99*]

Is it on Sky?

Yep, have been advertising it for a while now.

 

[Halfpast_Yellow]

Knight riders ftw!

 

[NZTailender]

Yep, have been advertising it for a while now.

Haven't seen a single ad for it, tbh.

 

[ret]

It's close b/w Mumbai and Delhi

If I had to pick one then it's going to be Mumbai Indians ---> the capital of western India and it has Sachin, Uthappa, Jayasuriya, Pollock & Malinga, alng with Bhajji .... and also has some nice upcoming players too in Ronchi, Pinal, Saurabh Tiwary, along with veteran fast bowler Nehra

 

[99*]

Haven't seen a single ad for it, tbh.

Well it doesn't look like a cricket ad at all, just Mark Richardson sitting at a desk talking.

 

[alternative]

Carn the Knight Riders!!!!!

 

[gwo]

Im on those Punjab BOYS

Love the team balance.

 

[shankar]

Chennai here.
