Mark Richardson fronts the ad, does a terrible job trying to be serious IMO.
Starts at 2am here, will tape it and watch it in the morning. Am still surprised Sky got rights to show it.
I actually think Bangalore will win tonight, even though Kolkata seem to be going into it as favourites. If the Kolkata top order fails, they're stuffed with a less experienced middle order. While Bangalore might have players with better defence, they'll bat 20 overs thats for sure.
Am hoping Chennai win the tournament though, with both Oram and Fleming I have to support them.

Hmm, Washington Redskins cheerleaders are dancing and the camera is focusing on the fireworks. Makes sense. CBN you morons.

Why are there NFL cheerleaders at a cricket game?

Bangalore is also banking on 12 cheerleaders from the Washington Redksins, the 'First Ladies of American Football', to draw more fans to the stadium. "The entire exercise is to have the right balance of glamour and cricket," said Sharma. "Usually, cricket is not associated with such ceremonies, and this will be a novelty. At the same time, we would not want the genuine cricket fan to get frustrated waiting for the game to start. Our aim is to present a spectacle that's short, sharp and sweet, which reflects the spirit of the IPL."

FFS, let's play the game. Rooting for Bangalore here - Kallis and Dravid in the same team is awesome. If McGrath wasn't in Delhi, I'd be rooting for these guys.

Holy crap, Rahul Dravid looks like a lollipop. That kit sucks - Knight Riders look much better. Don't tell anyone, but Ganguly looks like he's wearing a Pakistani ODI uniform.
