IPL 2012 : News

Couldn't have asked for a better ending on home ground

Indian cricket is lucky to have two brilliant talents in Umesh Yadav and Varun Aaron. Kevin Pietersen writes.

Introspection has helped us chart the way forward

At times, introspection helps to decide what you did right and what you need to do from here on. The message for Pune is simple - we need to go out and win more and more games. Sourav Ganguly writes.

KKR hold the edge against CSK

If you would have asked me at the start of this edition of the Indian Premier League to pick a winner, I would have obviously put my money on Chennai Super Kings. Mark Waugh writes.

Batting with Viru the highlight of my season

As the countdown for my return to England nears, I feel a little sad. But what keeps me going is the performance of the Delhi Daredevils. Kevin Pietersen writes.

Packed Kotla is God's grace for Sachin

When told about the game being sold out because of him, he said with humility: "Upar wale ki kripa hai." Amrit Mathur writes.

Eden will be a test for Gayle & Co

Bangalore take on the Knight Riders in Saturday's night game, and it will be two of the more glamorous teams facing off. Mark Waugh writes.

'X-factor' makes the difference in IPL

One of my favourite coaches is Gary Kirsten — he's very clever. By telling me I can have the day off to rest, he makes me want to train harder! Jacques Kallis writes.

Faf has filled in for Mike admirably

Faf du Plessis has been an excellent replacement and has filled in the role that Mike Hussey would have done for us as an opener. Stephen Fleming writes.

Never mind the naysayers, T20 is a serious business

Unlike the previous seasons, some of the legends, who have lost contact with top-flight cricket, are finding it tough to keep up with the demands of T20 cricket. Aakash Chopra writes.

Kotla is my showpiece venue

We are a happy dressing room as we are back at the top of the table. We are playing good cricket and backing each other up.

No stadium is big enough when Viru hits top gear

The countdown has started and as we approach the business end of the tournament, every game will have its significance in terms of points earned or lost. Sourav Ganguly writes.

Hussey doing fine, but his best yet to come

The Kings XI were dealt a blow with the injury to Adam Gilchrist, but one win and loss after David Hussey took over isn't too bad a record. Mark Waugh writes.

Scheduling woes make it an unequal league

When the Pune Warriors took on the Delhi Daredevils on Tuesday, they were facing the same opposition in successive games for the second time in three weeks. Amol Karhadkar reports.

Feisty Sourav bodes well for the Pune Warriors

The sight of Sourav Ganguly running is still vivid in my mind. He ran faster after claiming my wicket than when he ran in to deliver the ball. It was good entertainment. Kevin Pietersen writes.

Discipline a must to tackle hectic schedule

It was really hard to travel across the South and then to the North for back-to-back matches. This is exactly what the youngsters who cherish to play for India should learn, to deliver under trying circumstances. Sourav Ganguly writes.
