The IPL is designed to NOT have calm waters for too long – there is a mega auction that happens after every 3 seasons, with one to happen before the
Indian Premier League 2020
It’s that time of the year but it is not really ‘that’ time of the year. Preparations for the T20 World Cup would have been in full swing right now. Instead we have players converging in UAE almost a month before the start of another IPL season. These are crazy times.
Indian Premier League 2019
Am I the only one or does it feel like this year’s IPL is lacking a certain level of enthusiasm that we have become accustomed to over the years?

What if India quits cricket now!
It gives goosebumps to even think of India without it’s favourite past time – Cricket. Cricket is engraved with stone on our skin and taking it away would be way more painful than ripping off a Band-Aid off a fresh wound. India without cricket would be like a dog without a bone.
M S DHONI – The Journey you know, the man you don’t.
