Kochi and Pune new IPL Teams
Initial reports suggests that Sahara Group of Subroto Roy has won the bid for IPL team Pune for 1702 Crores and Randezvous Sports has won the bid for Kochi for 1533 Crores. The Kochi Randezvous Sports is reportedly backed by the Shashi Taroor.
So two new teams from next year and the hoopla goes down south to Mallu land too
winn and loss have any meaning except for the spirit of game?
whenever I see Sreesanth, it recalled me his face with tears....Bhajji's most costly slap :(
Next year I think it will be a reauction as the three years tie in period after the firt auction is over with IPL3. So except local state players affliated to particular teams we will have an auction where players will be bought like in the cattle market.
It is really gooooooood to see the so superior players from Australia being sold like cattle!!!!
Sahara will put all guys from UP, I bet!!
Who will be captain of Pune Team????? my guess is Yuvraj sinh...since he's ignored by Kings XI for sangakara
Why Pajju ?
Are you in the team or wat ?
DamN !! plz dont come in tat Fungus affected shorts ! :(
EmN - remember the sewhag Duck on the first delivery? .. tell me who doesnt get smashed in T20s?? India has none atpresent who can outswing it like the mallu boy :)
u guys just wait for next IPL :)
now I guess Shree santh will be captain of Kochi i guess!!!
I'm the new supporeter of Pune Team.....Weldone sahara....!!!
lol rizks.... I dont want to see another mallu getting smashed all over the ground like sreeshanth :P
Thank you guys… for enlightening me...:)
SrK.....charges 10 Lakhs for attending a birthday/marriage party for an hour ....
He is not stupid to waste 4 hours sitting in a stadiun!
FS - you can see their shirt and trousers with many logos, they are the ones paying back a good sum, plus the IPL itself. 30 to 40 000 spectators each match :), TV telecast rights.. its huge business
FS the team owners of IPL get return on their investments via many modes, some of them are
broadcast revenue
sponceship revenue
team sponsership
ticket revenue
merchandising revenue
hospitality etc.
business secrets not disclosed :)
From sub sponsors (T shirts, caps, Jerseys), marketing stuffs, ADs and people watching these matches in stadium, TV channels (TRP's).....
will the players of Kerela team wear Lungi and baniyan ?
yayyyyyyyy!!!three cheers for my very own Kochi!!!

Finally an IPL team for Kerala too. Yippeeeee
1533 crores for the Kochi team. Headed by an expat from middle east :0 Mr Vineeth???
Well money is from Cricket board out of advertisements (tv--branding etc) then you have sponsors and I think 60% of the ticket sales
Shashi Tharoor ( central minister from kerala ) will play the role of a non-playing captain and remain as a patron of the team kerala :)
Cool... excuse my ignorance...how do they get this money back in this business??
No news on that as yet. It will take some time to set it up. Good opportunity for Kerala sports and cricketers
Yep, I read the news....who will be leading these teams? I mean captains.
Good competition with more teams in the fields....
