MS Dhoni’s pepsi ad : Mind It
Dhoni playing for Chennai Super Kings imitates tamil Super Star Rajni Kanth. Ad goes something like this.
MS Dhoni from Chennai, Mind it. All you fast bowler rascals, I have the bat do you have the ball.
Mind it. Very funny. Watch it below.
Pepsi is the official pouring sponsor of IPL.
Invincible Royale
Rajasthan Royals, lost only 2 matches so far. One with Mumbai Indians and the other with Daredevils. How is that for consistency. Who ever plays for Royals, performs. Who continues to play for Royals continues to perform. They have the chutzpah to drop Shane Watson and go into the match with Super Kings. It doesn’t [...]
Vintage Jayasuriya toys with Chennai bowlers
Super Kings started off slowly and were helped by few lusty blows by Dhoni and rampant batting by Badrinath. They managed to reach 156 by losing 6 wickets. Kulkarni picked up 3 wickets and Bravo picked up 2 wickets. That score was never enough especially with a Chennai’s weak bowling line-up.
Though Chennai knew Mumbai Indians [...]
2 surprises in a day
That is Super Kings and Knight Riders winning their respective matches. I have almost written both the teams off and they managed to bounce back. The only thing which needs to be checked is if that bounce back is sustainable. That leaves the tournament wide open. There are no clear favorites. Though I have made [...]
Super Kings dethroned by Daredevils
In what has been a clinical and professional performance, Daredevils dethrone Super Kings at their home. Helped by some good bowling and explosive batting, Daredevils reached to the top of the heap, leaving Super Kings at the second spot and maybe to the start of an end. Super Kings missing the australian superstars Hayden and [...]
Clash of the titans : Kings vs Devils
I have to use that for the lack of a better cliche. Today’s match between Daredevils and Super Kings should be an exciting encounter. We fall into this trap of thinking the top teams clash and will provide an exciting encounter. But, that did not happen so far in the tournament. We have seen 19 [...]
Tamil movie industry adds itself to the growing list of IPL haters
Not exactly haters but people who either don’t like it or dont want to like it. Looks like the movie industry has no audience for the late evening shows, courtesy IPL. Well, can you blame the audience. You have a team that plays good cricket, you have roped your favorite star (Vijay), you have the [...]
Superstar’s daughter as ambassador for Super Kings?
It is reported that Tamil Superstar’s daughter Saundarya might be roped in as the new ambassador along with Vijay for the Super Kings team. Rising star Arya is in the discussion too.
Graphic Designer by profession Saundarya runs a company called Ocher Studios. Her animation works include tamil films like Chandramukhi, Padaiyappa, Ah Aah : Anbe Aaruyire. [...]
Super Kings are the unstoppables
Defending 178 was never easy. Super Kings did not have the kind of fire power to defend a modest total. Wasim Jaffer was dropped twice, on 7 and 18. Super Kings might have thought that Jaffer would not make any difference and it might be to their advantage if he stays on as few runs [...]
Dhoni is back
Just when the tournament is losing its shine and the australians ready to leave the tournament for their carribean tour Dhoni decided he had enough. He batted with his trademark not scoring in the first 15 balls and then boom. Dhoni has arrived. It has been a while since Dhoni played an innings like this. I [...]
