He will be replaced by ‘Sheik Of Tweak’ Shane Warne.
Dual sponsorship move in IPL draws criticism
The IPL now allows dual sponsorship.
What this means is that teams can now have different sponsors for their home and away games.
What next?
Home and away captains?
The move is a ploy to help teams earn additional revenue.
Soccer teams wear different coloured jerseys for home and away ties.
But different sponsors?
Is the colour of money different when home or away?
Existing sponsors are displeased.
New sponsors might come in only at the expense of current ones. The rumblings against the ad-hoc running of the Indian Premier League resound higher.
The BCCI sure believes that they have to be first—in everything. From the sublime to the ridiculous.
Quote of the day:
A sympathetic Scot summed it all up very neatly in the remark, "You should make a point of trying every experience once, excepting incest and folk dancing." – Sir Arnold Bax

IPL franchisees come under ICAI scanner: Big Trouble for Big IPL Money
There’s more trouble brewing for the BCCI’s cash-cow, the Indian Premier League (IPL).
The IPL has been mired in controversies over the past year.
The Twitter spat between Lalit Modi and Shashi Tharoor was the spark that triggered a conflagration of sorts; IPL shenanigans were tabled on the floor of Parliament. Media darling, Tharoor, was forced to resign from his position of Ministry of External Affairs (MEA).
Cricket World Cup 2011:Team India are champions of the world
“We are the champions – my friends
And we’ll keep on fighting
Till the end
We are the champions
We are the champions
No time for losers
‘Cause we are the champions of the World”
Freddie Mercury’s lyrics may seem trite and overused. Yet they never fail to send out the right message.
Team India are champions of the world.
Nothing and no one can take that away from Mahendra Singh Dhoni and his boys.
Poonam Pandey makes it big riding piggyback on Team India
One thing’s for certain.
We all know who Poonam Pandey is—now.
She’s that little known Kingfisher model who promised to strip nude if Team India won the World Cup.
I’m a serious kind of bloke and it got me wondering immediately why would Ms Pandey want to do this. And just who Poonam Pandey was.
Is she one of those Page 10 celebrities who frequent Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) meets? A relapsed alcoholic? That would explain it.
No, you idiot, it’s the free publicity.
