A good chase to watch. Punjab bowlers have to take the blame. I think this is the third time their batsmen have put up a winning score and they have lost again. Ramesh Powar bowled well for a part-timer. The rest of the bowlers were BAD. 193 is a winning total in all costs and Punjab should have won this.
Irfan Pathan - Harsha bhogle summed it up very well. You cannot bowl in the first 6 overs and you cannot bowl in the last 3 overs and he has been made as a 5th bowler.

Avarae use panrardhu part timer madhiri use panraanga sivan. Piyush chawla is the designated spinner for Punjab but he didnt bowl the opening overs. It's like India opening with shewag to bowl when you have bhajji as a spinner in the team.

Sivan, yes. Powar is an anachronism in the age of showman bhajjis

He is good as a spinner but not as dependable for a typical 4 0 28 1 that durby can deliver consistently not to mention 1 batting sensational knock in 15 matches that kees him in the news. Besides this, flag waving bhangra, jumping, diving-nu neraiya trick vechurukkaan.
I actually like the punjab team except yuvraj. They don't deserve to be bottom - they
should have kicked out prince pre season
Venki, yeah, why the hell a semis can't be in chennai or eden - in my view, the 2 most historical venues in india.

Both these teams struggled their way into the semi's and thus have peaked at the right time in the tournament. CSK should be extremely wary of Deccan.

Haydo & Gilly from the respective teams are long overdue for a big one.
My instinct tells me that the winner of CSK/Deccan semi's is going to lift this year's IPL. Paapom.

Well what does kolkata need to do to edge out bangalore?
Bangalore are dangerous opponents to mumbai.
It should be quite uphill - like some 150 run victory or something but what is it?
Also, sachin should skip tomorrow so that he doesn't get banned by any chance
Also, does he cop a ban if overrate in semis is slow? I think, in football, such composite penalties don't carry over from league stages to knockout.

KKR's best chance is to win toss, choose batting and gayle plays a blinder and stays for the entire 20 overs and they post a 300 and then restrict mumbai to less than 120

I don't know if others have observed but even fate balances tn players doing well at the same time - at the same time, only 2 TN players do consistently well. When vijay was failing, karthik was doing well and now viceversa. Today badri did well but vijay failed. Ashwin doing well but balaji went out of reckoning

Pace, the final frontier
Delhi: On a day when Delhi Daredevils lost out on a semi-final berth, most of their players had a disappointed look on their face, including an emerging fast bowler from Vidarbha. The name’s Yadav, Umesh Yadav, and emerging James Bond-style into the action, the quickie burst onto the scene and shot out some of the big names in Indian cricket.
For someone who only started playing serious cricket when he was 19, to have already made a name for himself by the time he is 22 is quite remarkable. Yadav has impressed most who have seen him bowl this summer in the IPL playing for Delhi. Coming into the tournament his claim to fame was that he could bowl around the 140kmph-mark and had got Rahul Dravid and VVS Laxman out to short-pitched balls that hurried onto them. It is an achievement simply because the two batsmen we just spoke of belong to the category of some of the finest pullers in Indian cricket and to knock them over is no mean task.
Playing his first match in the IPL against Chennai Super Kings, he started off by bowling a peach of a delivery, a yorker right in the blockhole, at 143 kmph. The batsman onthe receiving end was Parthiv Patel, who somehow dug the ball out. Talking about his first delivery of the tournament, and the pace he bowled it at, Yadav said: “It was my first game, so was very excited and also we needed a wicket at that time so I thought of starting with a yorker.”
For a nation that is starved of fast bowlers who can hurry the batsmen, it was a special sight to see someone actually bowling 140kmph and above consistently rather than just making tall claims.
Yadav believes the IPL has given him the recognition he was looking for and believes things can only get better from here on.
“Last year I was injured so did not get to play, and this year I did and thankfully things have gone my way,” he said. “I do not have any targets to bowl at 145 or 150 [kmph] but just to bowl fast and get wickets. I have been training to do that and it feels great that it is showing here. Thanks to IPL, I got a chance to show what I can do, IPL has been like a blessing for me.”
Dirk Nannes, the other main fast bowler in the DD team, was heard to exclaim after that opening yorker: “Geez! Where was this guy hiding for the past two years?”
In response to hearing of the Australian’s reaction, Yadav laughed and said: “It is nothing, he is just pulling my leg, I was injured last year so did not play and this year I have done well. I am just happy about that.”
Already in the running for the IPL Under-23 Success of the Tournament award, this young man has impressed everyone with his pace and the ability to think out a batsman using his bouncers. Delhi Coach Greg Shipperd had said of Yadav in a press conference that the Daredevils were lucky to have a domestic bowler who can operate so rapidly as opposed to other teams who have had to look to fill that slot with overseas players. The Indian was one of the reasons why the Daredevils managed to perform decently even after losing Nannes to injury for a few games.
Along with Yadav himself, the entire nation must be hoping that the new kid on the block gets a national call-up soon and he puts an end to the debate on why Indians cannot bowl fast.
Fast is what Yadav does, and fast is 145kmph!

I'm assuming we are talking about Champions league, yes it is carried over. A player faces 1 match suspension if he picks 3 Yellow cards starting from the first match in the group stage. As well as following subsequent odd-numbered caution (fifth, seventh, ninth, etc.)

But here, the number of games in group stages is 14. That's a lot.
It's unfair for a player to be missing the finals of a World cup because he got carded in semis, and his first Yellow is from (only 3 games) the group stage. The defensive midfielder and fullbacks would be worst hit by this, and unfair advantage to the opponents. I can't imagine the last three champions, France, Brazil and Italy winning their games without Deschamps, Gilberto Silva and Gattusso respectively..

Analysing Deccan's performance, most of their wins are narrow wins while the losses are awesome losses - they have been nuked twice by Mumbai and even Kolkata had a convincing win against them.
Delhi, OTOH, have lost 4 out of their 7 losses narrowly. Clearly, they havent been up enough mentally and have paid the price for complacence and over confidence, not to mention negative attitude of captain.
I think 6 out of 7 wins for Chennai were nuke-awesome while the losses were convincing more often than not.
Net-net, Deccan have not been as entertaining as other teams in the Semis, and even less entertaining than Delhi. Their mental strength is taking them through(specifically that of the captain, Rohit and Symonds).
I guess that is the most important aspect of any sport

Modi is corrupt. Everybody knows it.
pudhusA varavanum apdi thAn iruppAn. Where big money is corruption follow
match fixing - quite possible. Rajasthan has a bunch of no names who can be influenced with big money they wont get otherwise. KKR last year was like that but this year they have mostly names with intl experience but you can never rule out. For instance, can you pay someone who is doing well to fake injury and not play? Possibly yes.
KXI - maybe players thought anyway we are losing, lets some money out of it. Besides, the KXI OWNERS ARE ACCUSED of match fixing here. That is mind boggling.

Delayed posting but am wondering,if at all S/F had to be shifted out of bangalore,why Mumbai?That city has been ravaged by terrorist attacks the kind of which B'lore has never seen!
Why was Chennai,Kolkatta,Nagpur,Dharamsala,Jaipur,Delhi not considered.
Yen,inge ellam short notice-le all arrangements pandra capacity illaya????
Is this to facilitate MI to win the trophy?
The franchisee might not be involved but just for the reason Mumbai got the S/F apart from the already scheduled Finals,they should get knocked out in the semis.
The fact that RCB is playing them is an added motivator

No need to sack Lalit Modi: Vijay Mallya
Royal Challengers owner Vijay Mallya has defended beleaguered IPL Chairman and Commissioner Lalit Modi. In an interview to NDTV, Mallya has said there's no need to replace Modi, whom he calls the architect of the Indian Premier League (IPL).
Mallya has also denied any sort of match-fixing in the IPL and accused politicians of trying to bring down the League. (Read: Beleaguered Modi thanks Mallya for support)
Here's is an excerpt from the interview. Watch the full version in the video below.
NDTV: Are you saying that you do not agree with the government ordering a basic probe which you think this is in some way vindictive and more to do with politics than to do with cricket.
Mallya: I am absolutely willing to cooperate. I think the whole of the IPL is willing to cooperate with the government. It is the government's right to investigate. It is the government's right to ensure that there is regulatory compliance and therefore all of us must cooperate. No issue at all. But for some politicians to say that IPL should be nationalised and there should be government control over sports is ridiculous.
NDTV: Would you be willing to disclose the ownership patterns of your team?
Mallya: I have already done so. We have already sent a notice to the Bombay Stock Exchange and we have also replied to the Registrar of Companies Bangalore who issued us a notice asking for all details. They wanted a reply by this evening, we have submitted it. In time. I see no reason why. I mean when IPL1 started, if people would have wanted to question the ownership structure we would have gladly provided that information. I think the politicians are using this to further their own political interests because they have a lack of fundamental understanding of how attractive the IPL is and what a fabulous opportunity it actually is.
In his latest tweets, Vijay Mallya has said, "NDTV calls it the Indian Paisa League...should actually be the Indian Panga League...;o)."
Lalit Modi has also tweeted a thank you note to Mallya. He has written he truly appreciates his gesture.

yeah plum, deliberated a lott over mccull/CG, but given that mccull played only a handful of matches in teh latter part i thot otherwise, coz hodge was the overhyped best t20 player on whom kkr pinned its hopes on when the foreign players lyk cg/bm were unavailable and he let them down badly, so i chose him.
similarly, i think cg added some sort of value to that team with his sometimes econ bowling n took some stunners n also shone in patches with the bat. so total failurenu paatthaa hodge thaannu thonnidchu.
hayden emosanal reasonsnga.. that one knock n the belief that there r 2 more big matches (hopefully). sreesanth ellam written off case before the tourney itself, rp last editionla top wicket taker dhaane, so naturally expectations high, so mightier the fall!

Virender Sehwag [ Images ] been ruled out of the ICC [ Images ] T20 World Cup.
In-form Tamil Nadu batsman Murali Vijay [ Images ] will replace him in India's squad bound for the West Indies [ Images ].
Sehwag sustained a shoulder injury during the Indian Premier League [ Images ] and was advised rest for three to four weeks.
"The ICC's Technical Committee has permitted a replacement for him," read a statement from the Board of Control for Cricket in India, adding, "the All-India Senior Selection Committee has accordingly picked Murali Vijay."
Gautam Gambhir [ Images ] will now be the vice-captain of the team.
IPL aside,this team has no chance of making it to the semi's.Like last year,T20 WC 2010 is also going to be a flop show for India.

Of couse,on current form B'lore will lose.They are the only team in the S/F who are on a downslide.Mumbai has remained on top except a couple of blemishes,CSK and DC have come back after a disastrous start while RCB had 4 wins out of their first 5 games while have only 3 from the next 9.
They don't deserve to be in the top 4 considering the way they are playing now.
And BTW,I don't believe matches are fixed in IPL.Modi is corrupt,maybe but so are the others.Betting-Maybe but match fixing-Nah!

Cinefan, my point is - big games of a tournament like this will always take place in the best of places. It used to be Eden Gardens (1987, 1996 world cups) but I think it has lost its charm. Mumbai is the second best. Actually I was surprised to see Bangalore as the SF venue when they first announced it.
And I think, for Sachin all other venues are slightly better than Mumbai. :P

IPL முதலாண்டு போல சென்னை மீண்டும் இறுதிப்போட்டிக்கு தேர்வு பெறுமா?
சென்ற ஆண்டு போலவே இந்த ஆண்டும் பெங்களூரு மற்றும் டெக்கான் அணிகள் இறுதிப் போட்டியில் விளையாடுமா?
மும்பை அணி தொடர்ந்து இறுதிவரைக்கும் செல்லுமா?
இந்த முறை மூன்றாம் இடம் யாருக்கு?
விஜய், பத்ரி, சுமன், ராயுடு, பாண்டே, திவாரி இந்த வீரர்களில் யாருடையா ஆட்டம் மிகச்சிறப்பாக இருக்கப் போகிறதோ அந்த அணிக்கு வெற்றி நிச்சயம்.

IPL team-owners don't want Shashank Manohar
The stage seems to be set for a fight over who will take over from Lalit Modi.
While BCCI chief Shashank Manohar is Sharad Pawar's choice, some of the IPL team-owners apparently think otherwise.
NDTV has learnt that they don't believe Manohar can run the IPL like Lalit Modi. So they have their own plan in place.
If Modi does go, they will propose to the IPL Governing Council that:
•IPL franchises will nominate one of their own to be appointed as IPL Commissioner on a rotation basis for a period of two years
•The Vice Chairman of IPL would be a person nominated by the BCCI
•The Governing council should be controlled by the BCCI with Modi as a member

DY Patil has hosted only 2 games this season... Defly 4 games in 5 days will affect the pitch a lot... Finals ls neraya spinners irupaanga and it will be a low scoring affair... Of all the grounds in India DY Patil seems to be less used along with Dharamsala... So no worries in hosting the games @ DY Patil
Btw intha varusham Semis en Bangalore na
Semis will be played in Last Year Runner's home ground...
Finals will be played in Last Year Winner's home ground...
So if MI win this edition of IPL, IPL 4 final will take place in either Brabourne or Wankhede...

The above post is to emphasise that when it comes to IPL, the loyalties are not clear-cut. Although I make self-deprecatory references to cahtterjee, the truth is I am actually divided when it comes to support. Based on which of the above factors holds the top position in the mind, the support could change any time. So, you cant, for instance, presume that I am opening a thread for RCB for chatterjee - it could be that at this instant, I really support them

Looking at that scorecard, one wonders what happened to Abhishek Nayar. He did a lot in that season for Mumbai - from rebuilding innings, to bamboozling, audacious, explosive batting while chasing to radioactive cameos. The abiding memory, though, is of the match where he screwed up, falling as part of a hat trick to Rohit Sharma, along with Duminy and Harbhajan.
Nevertheless, with Satish failing so often, he should have got more opportunities earlier in the tournament. Even if he is picked for the Semis, I dont expect him to shine now

Home advantage gives Mumbai the edge
Big Picture
Around last weekend, Royal Challengers Bangalore were a pleased side. Assured of a semi-final slot, they were looking forward to playing the knockout match on a pitch that suits their style of play, in front of a crowd that gets behind them vociferously. On Saturday, though, things changed. First they got a hammering from table leaders Mumbai Indians, which meant their net run rate fell, taking them to No. 4, setting up the semi-final against the same opponents. Before that thrashing started, there were two bomb explosions outside the M Chinnaswamy Stadium, which meant the semis were moved to the DY Patil Stadium in the outskirts of Mumbai.
Now Bangalore find themselves up against an imposing side at an intimidating venue: ask Adam Gilchrist, whose Deccan Chargers played a "home" match at DY Patil against Mumbai Indians. Yet Bangalore are one of the few sides this season that know that Mumbai can be beaten: they did so, convincingly, and in front of the Brabourne crowd. Mumbai would like to use their home advantage to make their first-ever appearance in an IPL final.
Form guide (most recent first)
Royal Challengers Bangalore LWLWL
Mumbai Indians LWWWL
Team talk
After having experimented in their last few matches, Mumbai should go back to full strength, barring injuries. Kieron Pollard and Lasith Malinga are the two clear choices for overseas players. Dwayne Bravo hasn't been in great form, so they may give JP Duminy a look-in. Dilhara Fernando might have impressed them enough with his split-finger slower ball, but Ryan McLaren might get the nod because he is a decent batsman too.
Mumbai Indians (probable) 1 Sachin Tendulkar (capt.), 2 Shikhar Dhawan, 3 Saurabh Tiwary, 4 Ambati Rayudu, 5 Kieron Pollard, 6 JP Duminy, 7 R Sathish/Ali Murtaza/Abhishek Nayar/Aditya Tare, 8 Harbhajan Singh, 9 Ryan McLaren/Dilhara Fernando, 10 Zaheer Khan, 11 Lasith Malinga
Bangalore are not likely to tinker too much with the XI that lost its last league match to Mumbai. Pankaj Singh v Praveen Kumar seems to be an interesting choice.
Royal Challengers Bangalore (probable) 1 Jacques Kallis, 2 Manish Pandey, 3 Kevin Pietersen, 4 Ross Taylor/Cameron White, 5 Robin Uthappa (wk), 6 Rahul Dravid, 7 Virat Kolhi, 8 Dale Steyn, Anil Kumble (capt.), 10 R Vinay Kumar, 11 Praveen Kumar/Pankaj Singh
Previously…
Bangalore 3 Mumbai 3
Their first match this year encounter was one-way traffic, with R Vinay Kumar and Dale Steyn slicing open Mumbai's batting, and Jacques Kallis and Manish Pandey leading the chase. But Mumbai returned the favour through an even more one-sided match, a 57-run win.
In the spotlight
Jacques Kallis and Manish Pandey have fizzled out after having given Bangalore some smashing starts in the first half of the tournament. Both have recently had question marks against their roles in the team, but it might be too late to replace them. They were as big a factor behind the success as they have been behind a lukewarm second half, and they will not want to be failures if they come second-best in the semi-final.
Lasith Malinga was one of the most difficult men to score off, bowling yorkers at will and using the slower ones as well. But he was rested for the last three matches, so the question is if he will be able to hit his rhythm right away when comes back for a pressure match.
Prime numbers and trivia
In the first half of the tournament, the opening stand of Kallis and Pandey averaged 72.6 per dismissal at a run-rate of 8.07 per over. In the second half, they have gone at 11.4 per dismissal and 5.34 an over.
Sachin Tendulkar and Shikhar Dhawan have opened for Mumbai seven times, and their opening combination has averaged 46.43 at 8.55 per over. In the seven remaining games, Mumbai's first wicket has averaged 24.43 at 7.6 an over.
Of the six IPL matches played at the DY Patil, three have been won by sides batting first and three by the chasing sides. The average first-innings score has been 153, and second innings 140. Quicker bowlers have enjoyed the venue more, taking 56 wickets at an average of 22.05 and economy-rate of 7.48. The corresponding stats for spinners are 19 wickets at 26.74 and 7.82.
Chatter
"I don't think any team has an advantage anywhere. You have to go out and do well. Every team has been beaten by every other team at some stage. Every team has the ability to beat any other team."
Mumbai coach Robin Singh

Tight security for India IPL match in Mumbai
Police say they are not leaving anything to chance
Security is tight at the Mumbai (Bombay) stadium where the semi-finals of the Indian Premier League (IPL) cricket tournament are to be held.
The match was shifted to Mumbai after two small bombs at the weekend outside the original venue in Bangalore.
Police say at least 3,000 security personnel will ring the Mumbai stadium and every spectator will be checked.
The IPL has been hit by controversy in recent days with allegations of corruption and financial bungling.
On Sunday, Shashi Tharoor resigned as junior foreign minister following his public spat with Lalit Modi, the head of the IPL, over ownership of the Kochi team.
It was alleged that a woman friend of Mr Tharoor's had received a free stake in the team. Mr Tharoor denies any wrongdoing.
Indian authorities are investigating the financing of the tournament and media reports suggest there are plans to force Lalit Modi from office.
'All precautions'
Special security arrangements have been put in place for the first of the semi-finals on Wednesday, Mumbai police chief AN Roy told the BBC.
"We have taken all precautions and every single spectator will be frisked before entering the stadium."
The IPL is the world's richest cricket tournament
More than 2,000 policemen and armed commandos and 1,000 private security guards have been deployed to secure the ground.
At least 60 metal detectors have been installed and closed-circuit cameras will keep an eye on every corner of the stadium, police say.
DY Patil stadium in Navi Mumbai is one of the finest in the country, with a seating capacity of 55,000.
The stadium, inaugurated in 2008, hosted the IPL final that year.
The stadium will host semi-final matches on Wednesday and Thursday, before the third place play-off on Saturday and the final on Sunday.
The venue was switched after two small bombs went off outside Bangalore's Chinnaswamy Stadium before last Saturday's IPL game between Bangalore Royal Challengers and Mumbai Indians.
A third device was defused on Sunday.
All three devices were hidden in the stadium's perimeter wall and the two explosions injured 15 people.
The IPL has become a multi-billion dollar industry, which attracts some of India's wealthiest businessmen and women.
On Tuesday, Mr Tharoor told India's parliament that he had done nothing "improper or unethical" and that he resigned because he did not want to be "an embarrassment" to the government.
Opposition lawmakers in parliament alleged that the multi-billion dollar cricket league was used for money laundering and illegal betting.
IPL chief Lalit Modi denies any allegations of funding irregularities. He has described the claims as "absolutely baseless".

Come on Mumbai. Sachin should give Jayasurya another chance. Other foreign players should be Mallinga, McClaren and Pollard.

If Pietersen shines today's match too, the chances for RCB to win are bright. RCB's biggest strength is their batting. If they win the toss, batting or bowling is not a problem for RCB until their elite batting line starts collapsing. Let us see how Kallis, Dravid, Pietersen, Kohli, Taylor and Uttappa contribute to their team.
Mumbai team relies on their bowling attack from experienced trio Z Khan, Malinga and Harbhajan Singh.
All the best for both of the teams.

May be, but still he is not an excellent batsmen, compared to sanga, mahela, hayden, Sourav.. etc
he was seriously overatted by the 'English' after their one off ashes victory over the Ozies way back in 2005, since then he has been very poor in batting !

A R Rahman Live at IPL Final
IndiaGlitz [Thursday, April 22, 2010]
India’s favourite music composer A R Rahman is taking a break from his current world tour to perform live for two special events in Mumbai on April 24 and 25.
On April 24 ARR will be performing live at the audio release of Mani Ratnam’s ‘Raavan’ for a select audience from Bollywood and the media at Yash Raj Studios. On April 25 the maestro’s performance is going to be the highlight of the IPL Finale at DY Patil stadium in Navi Mumbai.
The ‘Raavan’ audio release is so special that Abhishek Bachchan, who is shooting in Greece will cut short his shooting to fly back to Mumbai for a day.
A R Rahman has not performed live in Mumbai for many years and this will be his first event in Mumbai after the Oscar and Grammys.

Tendulkar most searched Indian player in IPL
NEW DELHI: Sachin Tendulkar emerged as the most searched Indian cricketer, followed by Sourav Ganguly among the players in the third edition of Indian Premier League.
Google India, announced its second IPL Zeitgeist for 2010 - an insight into the most searched teams and players during the third season of the Indian Premier League.
Rajasthan Royals skipper Shane Warne continued to be the most searched international player at the IPL, for the second year running.
Conspicuous by their absence were popular names such as MS Dhoni, Virender Sehwag and 'the Fake IPL Player', who moved off the top 10 this year. Adam Gilchrist, Ryan Harris and Praveen Kumar made their debut on the list at number 7, 8 and 9 respectively.
Among the teams, Deccan Chargers ousted the Mumbai Indians from the top slot, who emerged as a close second. Chennai Super Kings rounded up the top three teams, as Kolkata Knight Riders dropped to number 4 this year.
'Super Over' emerged as the most searched IPL related query on YouTube followed by Chennai Super Kings. Yusuf Pathan, who did not make it to the IPL Zeitgeist on Google Search, emerged as the most searched player on YouTube.
To compile the 2010 IPL Zeitgeist, Google studied the aggregation of queries pertaining to IPL that people typed into Google search during the IPL season 3. We used data from multiple sources, including Insights for Search, Google Trends and internal data tools. We also filtered out spam and repeat queries to arrive to a list which captured the essence of the series. All of the search queries we studied are anonymous - no personal information was used.

its a very simple logic that songs performed on stage needs to be rehearsed for months together and preparing a small list to catch the attention of people for such events is a bigger logistic headache........for this reason, im expecting rahman to come up with hindi songs only......but i know its going to be trivialised and made use for rahman bashing as tamil drohi etc

Investigators say IPL fixed: Newspaper report
The Indian Premier League (IPL) matches you have been keenly following for most of the past two months have been fixed, according to an income tax (I-T) report. Worse still, by none other than your cricketing idols.
Shockingly, those involved in fixing the matches are superstars of Indian cricket and even an international player, who is a captain of one of the teams, according to a top official in Delhi who is part of the I-T team investigating the alleged IPL scam. Some team owners too are allegedly involved.
Thankfully, the Big Three of Indian cricket -- Sachin Tendulkar, Sourav Ganguly and Rahul Dravid -- are clean and above this muck, the I-T investigator revealed.
The report (a copy of which is with MiD DAY) says, "During IPL, the match fixing and betting racket has scaled new heights."
Some seniors have allegedly been influencing juniors, often from their own regions, to fix matches. Probably for the first time in cricketing history, senior and junior cricketers playing in rival teams jointly fixed the outcome of matches, the official said. A clear pattern has supposedly emerged where a particular bowler has bowled easy deliveries and dropped catches, while his 'partner in crime' went on a scoring spree.
Investigating teams from I-T and the Enforcement Directorate are analysing phone records of some of the franchises after match-fixing speculations. Investigators are checking the phone records of several personalities who had access to VIP enclosures during IPL matches.
One of the persons mentioned in the I-T report is Samir Thukral, who, according to the report, "has an opulent lifestyle despite having no apparent source of income" and "carries out the betting on behalf of Lalit Modi where insider information as well as outcome fixing are hinted at".
About the IPL chairman's involvement, the I-T report says, "Lalit Modi is apparently deeply embroiled in both generation of black money, money laundering, betting in cricket (match fixing of certain IPL matches)."
While the report says that Thukral "is a permanent fixture at all IPL tournament matches", he told MiD DAY that he had attended only one match this season.
In an e-mail, Thukral said, "I would like to state that Lalit Modi is an old friend from college days and I have known him for over 30 years. However, I have no business or financial dealings with him or the IPL of any sort.
Also, in the last eight to 10 months I have only had the opportunity to meet him once. I strongly refute the allegations which are being made against me in the news; there is no truth in any of them."
A bookie, who did not wish to be named, revealed, "The stakes are so high that all operators want a share of the income. The value of IPL is well over Rs 6,000 crore and betting during each match is estimated at around Rs 500 crore. Some members of the underworld are believed to have secretly invested in the teams."

While these reports cannot be brushed aside, I doubt if the media is overdoing their job here for the sake of some unknown entities. All these IT raids started only after Modi's allegations on Tharoor made the govt to suffocate. 27 players involving in match fixing is chanceless and i am sure that no foolish franchisee owners would fix a match that would spoil the reputation that his/her team has in the market.

Sources close to NDTV informs
According to mid-day article
The economic times reports
CNN-IBN understands that...
The English News channels in this country have always been hyper-active manipulative sensationalist bunch of band-wagoners. There's no independence of thought even in what they believe to be true, and most of it is tabloid nonsense, speculation or based on inconclusive evidence . On a frenetic day (like in recent times), the amount of ads between every segment outweighs Ipl.
There's definitely cheating and money laundering going on. Match-fixing? Probably. Like in any sports league, most recently the Italian Serie A was caught by "calciopoli scandal", but only after evidence of telephonic conversations between club officials and the referee organization, etc (I think there's a bit of it in England too, but is ruled by biased media & no amount of pressure could be generated by 'em.)
This should come out now. Like Sachin said in Times now, once you enter into the ground, you forget everything off the field and perform to best of your abilities, execute all your plans, etc. I refuse to believe any illegal activities, the big bad word "match-fixing" is going on when there are captains like Dhoni, Sachin, Kumble, and Gambhir. On the other hand, I'm uncertain when it comes to likes of Gibbs, Warne, McCullum, etc

IPL is seen as a good time pass, but has been overdone and glossed over with extra effects by Modi. Some sections in the country are seriously pissed by this. Of course, there are few who hate the format & the concept itself.
But let's not be gullible to say the fans & general public being
cheated is the actual concern of the MPs in Parliament. Media sensationalize it as if that's the case.

anyone please, the rationale behind moving the semis to this stadium? some serious doubts personally, especially coz not a single comment on the pitch even after the pathetic way it has behaved for the crucial semifinal matches rendering both the semis as "bat first, win the match!" if the same kind of scores had happened on that kotla pitch, everyone wud've been talking by now. Shane Warne going to town about Chennai pitch n the boundaries being made short. praise all around for the bangalore wicket. we have eden, one of the world's best. but dy patil stad, mumbai it is for the semis/finals, but y no mention about the way the pitch has behaved?! it'l be a shame if the final is also reduced to a "win the toss, bat first, win the match" kinda game! to me, both the semis have been the most disappointing aspects of this ipl without doubt, leave everything aside that has happened off the field! rest assured if the final also turns out that way, u wont hear anyone from the official commentary team mentioning anything -ve about this pitch!

Idhaye dhaan 2nd semifinal-ku apparam ketten. I just disagree on one point: Eden Gardens pitch sethu pochu. And renovation works vera nadandhutrukku pola irukku, so many stands are empty or not constructed.
IMO, this time the Bangalore pitch was better than Chennai's.

L is for legcutters, as bowled by Harmeet Singh, the world's only bowler to run in from about long off to deliver at the rapacious speed of about 109kph, with great success.

Hey its ok. For csk, a loss today would have been 3rd time in knockout. That would have been heartbreaking. As dhoni said, its a lottery and csk won it this time. Its not as if deccan or bangalore or rajasthan won it. CSK was one of the 2 teams that could perform entertainingly this year. Both teams made the finals so the tournament got a deserved finalists

India HAVE NOT WON A TOURNAMENT (ODI, am not talking abt T20) without Sachin Playing in the finals. So, It's not too bad (Yes, India shud have done well in few more finals). Today's luck of the lottery draw is not in Sachin's favour, simple.

Not sending Rayudu at 3 was a blunder i guess. The problem was he wanted to be the anchor but Nayyar was kattai putting.

When Nayar been run out, Sachin hit the ground with his bat in disguts on the other end as he simply couldn't digest Nayar's stupid move ! Its very sad to see Sachin in that kind of miserable state.
Though Bollinger failed to bowl a decent over in the end of the match, still I admire him for bowling all the 6 balls not giving a wide, no ball and full tosses. Truly Bollinger's effort in this total IPL is very commandable. He is really good in opening overs in many matches.
Morkel's last over was a turning point. he is good at both batting and bowling today!
Team's decision to play with 3 spinners in indeed a great move! A job well done!

My name is LSRK and I am a fan of Sachin
Ab..
Today, during telecast of the Indo-SA test, there was a very very interesting conversation between Laxman Sivaramakrishnan and Darryl Cullinan. They were arguing on who is better: Sachin Tendulkar or Ricky Ponting? It went on like this.
Siva: Thats no.46. 3 centuries in 3 tests. Looks like Sachin is running away from Ponting.
Cullinan: Well, Siva, I have a doubt: Who do you think is the better player considering the impact they have had on their teams?
Siva: Sachin !
Cullinan: Look at it. When Ponting got his 1st century, Sachin had 11. Since then , Sachin has got 35 and Ponting has got 38. Who do u think is better ?
Siva: *smiles* Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar.
Cullinan: Stop being objective. Why would you say so?
Siva: 20 years. No controversies. 30,000 runs and 91 tons. What more do u ask?
Cullinan: Keep the off field things away!
Siva: How can I? A cricketer is a gentleman's game and Sachin is the gentleman here

. Talk of being a complete cricketer. Sachin can bowl well- has more than a 100 wickets to his credit. He fields quite well too.
That shut Cullinan's mouth up. Well, Nobody could have said it better. Well, In India, you don't ask who is the better , ever .. cos there is only one answer: Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar .

Thanks Yuvi. "Thamizhan" LSRK!
Ever since Sachin made his Test debut in '89, in terms of sheer class, the only other batsmen who could come anywhere closer to Sachin are - Lara & Dravid, IMO.
But then even among these three - what makes Sachin stand apart is his completeness/versatility in stroke execution/batsmanship. He has tremendous control on his strokes even to the last fraction of a second during shot execution.
If you take the "class factor" outof equation and look just in terms of numbers/records - sollave venam. It's all there for everyone to see. Sachin is the best batsman of his generation. Period!

Let me say where I am coming from. I absolutely hate it when a PM says: "our brothers from the minority community" etc. Though he is trying to be 'nice', it is annoying that his 'our' does not include everyone in the first place.
Similarly there was this tone about being very aware that this was a Chennai team. Very annoying. I heard "MRF is a Chennai kambEni they will be very happy" etc. about a dozen times.

Apropos the IPL team loyalty discussion
My 5-year old daughter Lasya has a simpler approach though. We have a conversation roughly on the following lines, every day, during the IPL:
Lasya: Who’s playing today?
Me: Chennai and Kolkata
Lasya: Is Sachin mama playing for any one?
Me:No, he always plays for Bombay.
Lasya:Who’s playing then?
Me

honi uncle for Chennai, the ones in Yellow
Lasya: Ok, then I support Chennai for today.You support Kolkata, OK?

Although I followed IPL religiously, Cant agree more with this scholarly blogger
Feeyaar, you'll not spend a bad five minutes reading through this. He has several interesting points to make
The problem with T20 is, that there are so many errors forced by the extremely compressed format, that no amount of strategy can mitigate the effect of these errors. Suppose Chennai open the bowling with Muralitharan. Opening the bowling with a spinner is considered to be unorthodox. Muralitharan gets Tendulkar out in the first over, and Chennai go on to win. Will they have won because of the tactical move, or because Suresh Raina got away with as much slogging (and missing) as he did?
If you actually think about it, how different is it for a spinner to bowl with a brand new ball as opposed to a ball which is six overs old (it is fairly common for spinners to bowl in the 7th over of a T20 game)? How much of a tactical innovation is it to open the bowling in a T20 game as opposed to an ODI game? In an ODI game a spinner could bowl begin in the 16th of 20th over of an innings and still comfortably finish his 10 overs. When compared with this approach, getting the spinner to bowl with the new ball is an innovation
Suresh Raina is playing an iconic T20 innings - chancy, made possible by fielding errors, with some spectacular connections and other near misses
Tendulkar has played him(Bollinger) superbly - properly. The conditions are not unplayable, so you would expect this. Tendulkar is reading the line and length, getting behind the line of the ball, improvising intelligently (not recklessly) by manipulating the line and length with his footwork, without committing fatally to anything. A high quality contest, with both players playing a top quality game. Yet, in the context of this particular match, 20 overs a side, Tendulkar has nothing to show for his skill. Might he have achieved more if he had thrown caution to the wind and consistently aimed pre-meditated scoops, upper-cuts and slogs at Bollinger? Probably. At least some of these would have gone to the boundary. He would probably have missed a few as well, may be even gotten out to one. The result would have been different from 3 not out in 7 balls faced. Could have been 15 out in 7 balls faced. But it would have been ordinary cricket, with the ball flying unintentionally to various parts of the ground
And this, which you can only expect from the really scholarly:
He had the grace to concede honestly that he had made a misjudgment. He obviously did not purposely give that catch. If you think i meant that, you should probably stop reading. But Tendulkar did not made bad batting mistakes. His head didn't fall back, he tried to get to the pitch of the ball, and he took a knowing risk - to clear the long off fielder - tried to hit with the spin. And no, it was not a "chip" as cricinfo's commentator is telling you. It was a supremely well timed drive. The shortness of the follow-through was because it was played slightly inside out, try and play an inside-out drive and get your follow-through over your shoulder and see what I mean. It was just not lofted enough to clear the man. It happens sometimes. As opposed to Raina, who aimed a large number of cross-batted slogs irrespective of whether the ball was there or not, connected a few, miscued a few others into space. Tendulkar was out because he played a very skillful shot even though the bowler saw him coming and adjusted his line. He timed the ball, he middled it, he was well balanced when he played the ball. But circumstances required that he try something suicidal. It's hard for a high quality player like Tendulkar to get used to the idea of committing batting suicide

Koot article

the point is, that an attacking stroke is a risk - made exciting precisely because it is a risk - a bold response.
Profundity is always simple.
Have you had the misfortune of kicking yourself after holing out to the deep ? The sense of loss you feel is - as anyone given to solipsistic self-aggrandisement would vouch - near death. This is the end. I can't play that neat fluent drives I thought I would, no innings pacing, no strike rotating breath conservation..zilch. This is the end. It is against the possibility of all this that a six is attempted.
That is just not there in T20.
You get Muralitharan, but he's there for only 4 overs. 4 fraught overs where he's desperately hoping that some young punk won't connect a slog sweep.

idhukku dhaan padichavanga vENumgradhu
And any opinion will become respectable when widely held. Why not Ten10. The stay expectation will be halved, so there'd be no risk whatsoever. How can anything be inferred from all this ?
Okay...enough holier than thou-ness for the day

Raina isn't in Sachin's pedestal to even contemplate batting suicide, and is much of a false question. Agreed Raina attempted cross-batted shots quite a few times and didn't connect (twice mishit and should have been caught). And so do many others. Even my favorite Dravid looked to attempt cricketing strokes and failed to connect when he comes earlier up the order, and you're asked to take risks. Not bad "slogs" or cross-batted ones, but more of textbook shots not connecting.
And of course, the big question of sports had always been the "intention" factor. And being tested truly. The lack thereof in twenty-20's. But in law of averages, you tend to find a stream of consistency, and the ability to succeed in this game.

Couldn't resist quoting this.
Forehead hit
We are no longer interested in Tendulkar or Warne for how they bat and bowl, but, I suggest, in the fact that they are Tendulkar and Warne, whose batting and bowling we used to be interested in. For if we really cared about Tendulkar's batsmanship or Shane Warne's leg break bowling (or even just in batting and leg-break bowling), would we really care about them meeting in a Twenty overs a side game in which Warne was to bowl 4 overs with a newish ball and Tendulkar was keen to slog and didn't really care if he got out?

from the above link.
Explaining his batting line-up for the day, Robin said Mumbai wanted to play Pollard kin the final overs when he could take on the fast bowlers. Obviously, he did not mention Pollard's discomfort against spin and hence it was no point exposing him against Chennai's trio of spinners. But it would have been more viable to put faith in Rayudu and Tiwary in the top order and leave the finishing role to Pollard and Nayar. It was inexplicable strategic error that will haunt the league's richest franchise for long.
It still remains a myth as to whose idea was it to bring down Bhajji at that position. Robin says "Mumbai", so who is this Mumbai ? - Sachin, Robin, Lalit Modi, Nita Ambani, Shahid Kapoor ? ...

What did you feel exactly on these 2 occasions from this IPL series?
1) In Semifinal against Bangalore, why Sachin did not stand up to it when he "caught" Dravid in slips?
2) In final against CSK, Why he did not walk when there is a nick ( In CSK's thread, I raised this at once it happened..)
P.S : I can't help if you label me as anti-sachin man. But I still wish these 2 questions to be answered.

From umpires perspective, our indian law should be applicable for them also... aayiram kutravaaligal thappikkalam.. aana oru nirabarathi kooda thandikkapada koodathu...
in cricket, it should be.. if it is NOT OUT, then it should never be given OUT... whereas if it is really out, it may be given as NOT OUT... use BOD ultimately....
even my most favourite batsman of all time Brian Charles Lara who was a walker commented that it was NOT mandatory to walk.. it is upto the batsman...
IMO, walking should NOT be a benchmark for sportsmanship in cricket...
another point is, there are times when the player himself does NOT know whether it is out OR NOT... if you see sachin's catch (dravid), he may NOT be 100% sure...

but I am not surprised.. I dont think Sachin was ever a walker and the rule book in cricket says "never even step a foot before the umpire raises the finger" and I go by it.
There is another theory that the batsman cannot be 100% sure whether the ball has hit the gloves, but at the reverse angle from where the short fine leg would be watching, the deviation was pretty evident.
I will not blame Sachin for this but I will have to applaud for Dhoni for his character. Dhoni just turned around , didnt even had an eye contact with Sachin and to his favourite place - behind the stumps .. Excellent scenes.
What is more worrying is that people have started to question Sachin for something which he never has. dhideer dhideernu allegations but the same minds wont even spare a moment to appreciate a 37 yr old, with stiches in his hand hit 48 in a crucial final.. btw, 48 being the highest in the MI team in the finals.

Common, its extremely difficult for him to know if he had caught it or not. And he would have known that there are replays. So no point in celebrating a *false-catch*. He celebrated because he thought it was a genuine catch.
2) In final against CSK, Why he did not walk when there is a nick ( In CSK's thread, I raised this at once it happened..)
Why should he? How many international batters do it (except lara and gilli). On how many occasions has he been a victim of wrong decisions? Do you remember that Shoulder before wicket? I agree with P_R that its not the first time but the no. of times he was victimized >>> no. of times he was given not outs.

1. He felt that he was caught. He told so. They went to 3rd umpire and the catch was ruled not out. There is no neccessity that he has to be 100% right in his instincts all the time. Adhan dravid ninna edathulayae ninnutare sachin nambama ?. whats the big deal.
2. Is there any rule that one has to walk ?.
How are you so sure that sachin knew there was a nick?.
Addendum to the above and no way related to the above incident. He has gone out atleast 20-30 times when he was clearly not out.

There is no need for him to walk. Let the umpire give him out and he will promptly leave the crease. And I don't see that you mention any of the innumerable not outs he has been given out for.

Venkkiram,
I am not sure if Sachin would've known if the ball had touched the ground before catching. It is very difficult from the catcher's POV. The speed at which the ball comes off the bat is the second factor. 99 out of 100 times most catchers would think it as a proper catch.
It is nowhere said in the cricket rule book that a batsman has to walk if he thinks he is out. Its upto the batsman's wims and fancies to walk or not walk. And as Nerd and others pointed out, Sachin has been wrongly given out umpteen number of times. Helmetla ball pattadhukku LBW kodutha ulagam sir idhu!!

Venkiram,
1. In such cases, the fielder often (not always) either doesn't know if the catch is clean or he might even believe it is clean. He didn't pick it up in a half-volley, IIRC. Avar catch pidikkavum, grass pannadhum onna nadandhuchu. Often, slip la catch pudikkumbodhu kai (fingers) ground la patrum but since the fingers come between the ball and the ground, it is clean. There is a good chance, Sachin thought that was the case here.
[Of course Gavaskar kettadhu comedy dhaan. Sachin pudicha enna yaar pudicha enna, Dravid had every right to stay and wait]
2. That Sachin is NOT a walker ngaradhu sinna pullaikku kooda theriyume. He takes bad decisions given by umpires in his stride and as long as that happens, i don't see a problem.

2) In final against CSK, Why he did not walk when there is a nick ( In CSK's thread, I raised this at once it happened..)
P.S : I can't help if you label me as anti-sachin man. But I still wish these 2 questions to be answered.

In the last Aus tour of India. Ponting nicked and didn't walk in Sydney. Then someone in the India team nicked, was caught by Micharl Clarke and was caught controversially. The batsman stood his ground. Ponting urged him to move. The umpire, quite ridiculously, took Ponting's opinion and gave him out.
This selfsame Gavaskar was quick to make all sorts of noises to the tune that the opinion of a non-walker should not be valued. Ponting-ai bad words-la thittAdha kuRai.

Adha vida blatant, Ponting took a "catch" at shortleg i think. He landed with his palm (with the ball) facing the ground. Obviously the ball hit the ground and he sure wasnt in control of the ball long enough for it to be given out. He was adamant even after the match that it was clean.

My 2 cents worth - nothing specific to Sachin/Hayden:
* A batsman would always know (99%) if he had nicked. After him a wicket keeper would know it the best. So in most cases, a batsman & WK (in that order) are the best people to judge whether there was a nick or not.
* Expecting a batsman to walk out for a leg before is absurd. If a batsman walks himself before a leg before appeal is upheld then it is most likely one of these 2 things - A. It should be some sort of a "chatterjee" to get the nestu (but best) batsman the gAgee OR B. To really put himself out of the misery/struggle in the middle.
* A batsman (being the best judge of the nicks) - it would be great or a bonus if he walks once he knows he had nicked it. (a la Sobers, Kapil, Azhar, Lara etc.). But expecting the walking to be a rule or calling it as unsporting behaviour from the batsman is unfair as well.

Common, its extremely difficult for him to know if he had caught it or not. And he would have known that there are replays. So no point in celebrating a *false-catch*. He celebrated because he thought it was a genuine catch.
2) In final against CSK, Why he did not walk when there is a nick ( In CSK's thread, I raised this at once it happened..)
Why should he? How many international batters do it (except lara and gilli). On how many occasions has he been a victim of wrong decisions? Do you remember that Shoulder before wicket? I agree with P_R that its not the first time but the no. of times he was victimized >>> no. of times he was given not outs.

RK,
The kostin is not about whether one should walk or not. Everyone agrees that it is "fair enough" for a batsman to wait for umpire's decision.
Huge nick - Batsman ennage, adhu umpire/bowlers-kke theriyin.
Naanum league cricket- ellam (4-5 seasons) vilayaadhirukenunge... When a batsman nicks a ball however faint it is - he will know it for sure - in 99% of the cases. I'm just making a very general statement based on my cricket playing experience.
P.S: Again repeat telecast. I'm not talking in the context of Gilly or Sachin here. If there is anything like "fair play" award for a cricketer then Sachin should be one of the front runners for it - adhu vera vishayam.

Other than golf ball controversy I did not hear anything bad about gilchrist. Even golf ball controversy was cleared by Cricket boarding stating that it could not be proved against law. He atleast admitted that he played with Golf Ball in his glove. How many players would have admitted that after doing this?

Job of IPL chief was thrust upon me: Amin
Mumbai: Newly appointed Indian Premier League Chairman Chirayu Amin on Tuesday assured the cricket-crazy country that the multi-billion dollar Twenty20 league will be cleaned up and the Board of Control for Cricket in India has already started doing so.
"The job of cleaning up (IPL) has already started, BCCI is doing the needful," Amin said addressing a press conference in Vadodara juts a day after being made the IPL Chairman.
He claimed that he will take some time to understand the details of IPL as he was not ready to take up the job.
"I was not ready to take the job but it was thrust upon me. I have just taken over. Let me understand (IPL) first," he added.
Amin said that IPL a strong brand and will not be affected by the recent controversies about financial irregularities, income tax evasion by franchisees and allegations against suspended IPL chairman Lalit Modi of helping his family members get a stake in different franchisees.
"IPL is a strong brand. No one can change the brand image. This storm will pass," Amin said. "There is no confusion over Kochi team. IPL 4 will be bigger and better."
"IPL will be managed in a transparent manner. We will make IPL bigger than what it is. Cricket is important for us. No one can stop the popularity of the game," he assured.
"The Government agencies are inquiring into the matter," the BCCI vice-president said but also added that the cricket board is yet to come across any instance of rigging.
"We do not have any proof of rigging," he said. "There is a showcause notice against Modi. Let him answer. Modi is a suspended chairman. I have not spoken to Modi,"
Amin is the head of Baroda Cricket Association (BCA) and is also a member of IPL Governing Council. He was made the interim IPL Chairman on Monday after IPL Governing Council late on Sunday night suspended Modi from the post of league chairman.

Gilchrist, collecting a wide throw, ran into Rayudu scampering into the crease.
So far so good.
In trying to avoid falling over Rayudu, our man stamped Rayudu, literally walked over him
Even that is ok, and can be interpreted as avoiding falling over the batsman.
But what followed was a graceless walk away from the location by the gentleman cricketer, throwing a condescending look at Rayudu in the process. Rayudu didn tmake a big deal of it.
I wonder if Srinath was the match referee so it went uncommented. idhuvE Rayudu placela Watson and Gilly placela Gambhir and Srinath placela Chris Broad irundhirundhA?
I would like to see Arjuna Ranatunga, Senile Gavaskar and Rashid Latif as Match referees(what? If Chris Broad can be policeman after being a thief all his career, so can Latif) so that the boot is on the other foot and some gentlemen reputations can be punctured among Aus/Eng players

Paul Condon, the outgoing chief of the ICC's Anti-Corruption and Security Unit (ACSU), has said it worried about the first two IPL seasons not because it suspected match-fixing but because of the lack of infrastructure to prevent it. He said the third edition held this year was a clean event largely due to the heavy involvement of the ACSU.
"IPL 1 and 2 we were worried about, not because we think there were huge fixes, but because there was no infrastructure to prevent it," Condon said at Lord's on Thursday. "That doesn't mean to say that matches were fixed in IPL 1 and 2, but nor can I, hand on heart, give it a clean bill of health. I just don't know .
"Our advice was, and remains, that if you are going to have world-class players, international players, who are playing in IPLs and Twenty20s, and if they do anything daft there, sadly they will take that back into the international game. You can't be a part-time fixer, once the bad guys get into them, and a lot of them are organised criminals, then you are on the hook."
While Condon acknowledged he had heard rumours of spot-fixing in the third IPL season, he said there was no concrete evidence to suggest that was the case. "In IPL 3, the ACSU was heavily involved, there was an education programme, and we've got no current intelligence, or information, or ongoing enquiries, which suggest anything other than IPL3 was a clean event in terms of spot-fixing.
"IPL 3 from a clean cricket point of view seems to have been a very good event, but you are never more than a phonecall away from someone saying otherwise. There were rumours and vague allegations about IPL3, but no one has come forward either from the Indian board, or IPL, or franchises, or journalists, or players, or team managers, or anyone with specific allegations about match-fixing in IPL. All it's been is very generic rumour, and we're still waiting."
Condon said it was essential to prevent any possibility of match-fixing in leagues like the IPL to ensure the problem didn't spread to the international arena. "To keep the game clean, we've got to make sure that events like the IPL and other events like it, don't contaminate international cricket. So the same regime works for IPL: education, security managers in place."

Drastic changes suggested for IPL-4
Board Trying To Avoid Too Many Matches
Indranil Basu | TNN
http://epaper.timesofindia.com/Defau...Mode=HTML&GZ=T
New Delhi: The Indian Premier League looks set for a drastic change in format next season, with teams likely to be divided into two groups to prevent cramming too many matches in too few days. With 10 teams instead of the current eight, continuing with the current format will mean playing 94 matches instead of 60, a prospect that is giving organisers the jitters, given that the tournament will still have to be restricted to about seven weeks.
To get over this, BCCI discussed two twogroup formats at its last meeting on May 17 and sources said the IPL’s governing council will take up the issue in June.
One suggestion for IPL 4 is to split the 10 teams into two groups, each of which will follow the current home-and-away round-robin system. The top three teams from each group will then advance to a Super Six stage, where each team will play the three teams from the other group, at home and away, to determine the semifinalists. This will keep the total number of matches to a manageable 62 instead of the 94 matches teams will have to play if IPL sticks to the current format. There is, however, a huge downside, which is making the proposal unattractive to franchisees — the four teams which do not advance to the Super Six stage end up playing just eight league matches and just four at home.
The other proposal deals with this downside by drawing upon the National Basketball Association (NBA) model, which has a format that ensures all teams play each other in the league phase despite having divisions. The 10 teams will still be broken up into two groups. However, while each team will play the other four in its group twice, once at home and once away, it will also play each team from the other group once. The top four teams at the end of this process will then advance to the semifinals.
Thus each team will get a minimum of 13 matches, even if it does not go beyond the league stage. Also, every team will play every other team at least once, thereby doing away with the possibility of two popular teams never clashing, a scenario that the organisers and broadcasters would clearly like to avoid.
The five matches of each team with those from the other group, the proposal suggests, could either consist of two home matches, two away matches and one on a neutral ground or three home matches and two away matches in one year followed by two home matches and three away in the next year.
If either of these proposals is accepted by the IPL governing council, it will be put up for the franchisees to discuss followed by ratification at the BCCI’s working committee.
If everything falls into place, IMG, which has been involved in conceptualising and running the IPL, will be forced to work on a league structure that could suit a 52-day window next year. Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi, an IPL governing council member, had told Times Now recently, ‘‘We can look at this (the problem of too many matches in too little time) and see how we can reduce matches. I think there is a need perhaps to review that.”

Typically confusing stupid rules - one can expect that from a committee involving Senile.
Picture this
In the scenario above, post the group stages team A beats Team B who then beat C to enter finals
Team B bts team A.
Let's further assume Team A had topped the group stages and beaten Team B twice in the group stages.
So, Team B has one win against 3 losses to Team A, and also inferior in group stages. What an injustice it will be against Team A!

Best option is the top 2 teams of the league playing a best of 3 final. That would make sure the best team comes out on top. But that would deny the hosting of Semis (and the money) and some teams would feel it is mountainous to finish in the top 2. The battle for semi-final berth is a more engaging one as a team with a bad start can come back to claim the 4th spot, thereby giving an underdog a shot at the title. Personally I feel the Knock out matches are much more entertaining so I will vote for semis instead of this proposed circus.

Lalit Modi says Royals, Kings XI termination illegal
"The status of all teams is the same. They were all approved. There is no ambiguity as far as that is concerned. The action it totally illegal," Modi wrote in his favourite medium, Twitter.
"Instead of concentrating on building IPL and BCCI, they have chosen a path of vengeance and in that they will only hurt the game," he wrote in the micro-blogging website.
Pointing fingers at the Board's secretary N Srinivasan, Modi said: "All illegal things done by Chennai Super Kings and its owners have been overlooked by BCCI. Why? Who is running the show. What has Srinivasan got om (sic) them?" He further alleged that anyone who objects to the president-elect has to face the wrath of the BCCI adding that he is glad not to be a part of the current set up.
Modi said the teams make the IPL and the BCCI's action would harm its own image and that of the successful tournament.
"They are hell bent on destroying something that we as Indians are proud of -- the IPL. So as to satisfy there personal agendas," Modi wrote.
"BCCI's total disregard for franchisees and there stakeholders only goes to show that BCCI has lost the ability to administer sensibly," he added.
Modi wrote the game is bigger than the organisation and the IPL owners should get together and run the league on there own.
He also said it's time to reveal all facts as to how the BCCI has sheltered the men at the helm of affairs.

With Gayle, there were some availability issues it seems. So KKR didn't want to lock their money on him.
If KKR don't get Ganguly, then they can't expect too much suffort from local loyals. Rock and a Hard place for SRK.

Kochi is confirmed for IPL4. All issues related to Kochi have been sorted out.
Some High court has issued an interim stay on RR and KXI's expulsion, which means both RR and KXI can particpate in IPL4. but if BCCI goes for an appeal against this, then auction can't take place until the case is finished. in such case IPL auction may get postponed to March and would coincide with WC.

Ganguly, Dravid shown the door, Kohli stays on
dravid,sourav Ganguly, Yuvraj Singh and Gautam Gambhir are among the big names released by their IPL franchises, along with Brendon McCullum, Chris Gayle and Andrew Symonds, while Virat Kohli is the surprise retention for his team for the next three seasons. Wednesday was the deadline for the franchises to name the players they would retain from their current squads and while there is no common thread running through the choices of players retained and released, the key factors seem to be form, brand appeal and age.
Kolkata Knight Riders, Deccan Chargers and Kings XI Punjab have decided not to retain any of their players, while all the other IPL franchises have held back at least one current player. Chennai Super Kings and Mumbai Indians, the 2010 finalists, have retained the maximum of four players each, in the process parting with half of the $9 million salary cap available to teams.
According to the auction rules for IPL 4, teams can retain up to four players, only three of whom can be Indians. The retained players - who must have been part of the franchise's registered squads for the 2010 season - will be valued at $1.8 million for the first player, $1.3 million for the second, $900,000 for the third and $500,000 for the fourth.
Mumbai, as expected, held on to Sachin Tendulkar, the highest run-scorer of the 2010 season, offspinner Harbhajan Singh, West Indies allrounder Kieron Pollard and Sri Lanka seamer Lasith Malinga. Chennai took the Indian trio of MS Dhoni, Suresh Raina and M Vijay out of the auction, in addition to South African allrounder Albie Morkel, their regular opening bowler. Delhi Daredevils retained only Virender Sehwag, meaning Gambhir - their captain for the last two seasons - is in the auction pool.
The retained players
* Mumbai: Sachin Tendulkar, Harbhajan Singh, Kieron Pollard, Lasith Malinga
* Chennai: MS Dhoni, Suresh Raina, M Vijay, Albie Morkel
* Rajasthan: Shane Warne, Shane Watson
* Delhi: Virender Sehwag
* Bangalore: Virat Kohli
The most interesting choice came from Royal Challengers Bangalore whose sole retention is Virat Kohli, currently on an impressive run in ODIs. There is no place for Dravid, their icon player, nor for Anil Kumble, their captain and the head of the state association. Kolkata's decision to drop Sourav Ganguly, the biggest cricketing name to emerge from the city and the face of the franchise's on-field persona, is a bold step.
Punjab's decision to release all their players was expected following their dismal 2010 season, which means Kumar Sangakkara, Mahela Jayawardene and Yuvraj Singh will go under the hammer.
Siddhartha Mallya, owner of the Bangalore franchise, said the decision to retain just one player was backed by financial logic. "You must realise that with retention, a big chunk of your budget gets taken away," Mallya told ESPNcricinfo. " Mumbai and Chennai have kept four players, which means that half their budget is gone. It finally comes down to how much money one was going to lose. We have a big balance sheet but we have lost $1.8 million for keeping one player. We still have about $7-odd million left but if we had retained four then we would have had to buy virtually an entire squad with the remaining half."
Age is not a universal disqualification. It didn't count in Tendulkar's case, nor in that of Shane Warne, Rajasthan's coach and captain, who was retained by Rajasthan Royals, along with Shane Watson, a day ahead of the deadline. One franchise official explained the difference: "Warne is a global brand so that only helps to promote the franchise."
If Rajasthan opted for Warne because they have always viewed the IPL as a global brand, Mumbai went with Tendulkar and Harbhajan for their popularity. Pollard and Malinga may have made the cut on account of being impact players, who have backed up their strong Twenty20 credentials with consistent performance.
Sehwag's match-winning abilities, coupled with his rapid emergence as a brand, clearly had a say in Delhi's decision to retain him. MS Dhoni and Suresh Raina must have been shoo-ins for Chennai following their compelling IPL and international form. Vijay's performances, coupled with his potential to attract a strong local fan-base, must have tilted the scales in his favour, while Morkel's proven all-round skills were always going to be an asset. If there is a stranger in this crowd, it could be Kohli. Despite his owners trumpeting his recent performances, Kohli is still work in progress. But he is young, ambitious and has the youth appeal - all qualities of the UB Group's target audience.
