Shah Rukh Khan, Juhi Chawla & Preity Zinta are part owners of some these teams.

With the Zee break-away league (ICL) just finished on a high this is expected to change the face of Cricket to come. Didn't expect much from 20/20 cricket or even this reject Zee teams but it's been thrilling to watch to say the least. Looking forward to this IPL start on Friday...

"I was really surprised that only 237 tickets had been sold at the counter," Khan told the paper.

"I am truly finding it difficult to accept this. I have never requested my fans to go and see my films. Never ever done it.

"I am a bit surprised as to why, despite keeping the ticket prices low, people are not showing any interest.

"I never thought so many problems would crop up."


Quote:
Another aggrieved party is the editor of the Cricinfo website, Sambit Bal.

His journalists have been barred from entering the press box, and agencies will not be able to sell them match pictures.


Quote:
And there have also been reports that Mallya is keeping a staggering 40% of the tickets for Friday's first match to give to his private business associates - that may explain why it's sold out.
- the greedy mutt :o

:lol:

IPL has been going great, except few unwanted scenes, Bajji hitting Sreesanth and loosing 3 Cr and today after Chennai wont against Bglr, (Drums) Shivamani came to the center of the ground to cheer up Chennai team with his bands and some guys (definitely a brainless, and someone who has no idea who Shivamani is) tried to stop Shivamani and ripped his band apart. Finally, the captain (yes, Dhoni) come to rescue Shivamani. Apparently this is another Kannada vs Tamil issue and was not a good sight at all.

I found the whole Harbhajan incident hilarious, not a big fan of his anyway but he's quite a character, seemed he lost the plot a bit when he hit out at Sreesanth. All part of the entertainment I guess :lol: I missed the spat with Shivamani today though.

There's been some close matches and then very one sided affairs, great entertainment non the less.

Unfortunately I have no knowledge of this sport. But the purpose of this post is to point out the little girl next to SRK in the above photo, she looks as if she's about to puke. :?

Two very disappointing semi-finals - again very one sided affairs, hope the final today is better.
