A day after PCB smacked a 5 year ban on Shoaib Akthar today the IPL chairman Lalit Modi made it clear that Shoaib will not feature in any of the IPL matches till the PCB clears him on charges. The great loser by this IPL decision will be SRK, owner of Kolkata Knight Riders and Ganguly, the captain of Kolkata Knight Riders. SRK, owner of KKR bought Shoaib in auction for Rs. 1.82 crore. Anyhow, they have Ishant Sharma on their side to tighten the bowling side of the team. It is also a great disappointment for cricket lovers missing Shoaib Akthar in IPL.
DLF IPL is to kick off on April 18th this month. Chennai has turned down everyones attention towards it, by buying Dhoni in the IPL first round Auction. Recently, the Chennai Super Kings announced the brand ambassador and the Star ambassadors of its team.

All Indian cricket fans should be very happy with the performance of the Indian team in Australia. India has beat the world champions on the Australian soil by winning two consecutive final matches against Australia. This is the first time ever, India winning in SCG [Sydney Cricket Ground]. In the mean time, India Under 19 team has won the Under 19 world championship beating South Africa. Obviously, this should be the dual delight for BCCI. Sharad Pawar and his colleagues must be very happy with their boys performance.
