Wham Bam, Thank You Mam!!!!!



The second IPL season gets underway from April 18th. After having seen the explosive first season, I just can't wait for the second season to begin. The second season is being played in South Africa, the same place where India had won the inaugural T-20 World Cup. With the immense number of fours and sixes which rain in IPL, this tournament can be safely called 'Wham Bam, Thank You Mam!!!!!' which means either you hit out or get out.

As always this year too I am gonna root for Kolkata Knight Riders - The Most Profitable Club in IPL. They will be kickstarting their campaign on April 19th against Deccan Chargers. Whether its the multiple captain theory or the mind numbing signing of Mashrafe Mortaza, KKR never ever fails to make news. Credit of which must go to its charismatic owner - THE KING.

This year I would love to see KKR opening their batting with Chris Gayle and Brendon McCullum - probably the most devastating opening pair in IPL.

David Hussey would be another interesting watch as the pitches in South Africa are quite similar to those in Australia fom where he belongs.

And not to forget our very own Ishant Sharma, who brings in fear into the hearts of the batsmen.

This year even Sprite is sponsoring KKR which further reinstates the fact that KKR is the most sponsored team.

Players to watch out for:-
1) Chris Gayle
2) Brendon McCullum
3) David Hussey
4) Ishant Sharma
5) Mashrafe Mortaza

My prediction for KKR in IPL 2:- Semifinals

War cry of KKR:- Korbo Lorbo Jeetbo

Official website of KKR:- www.kkr.in
