My best team is Kolkata.All the best to Gautam Gambhir & rest of the team
Hi chennai is my best team. The players bought by gurunath meiyappan are just fantastic. Last year around everyone i met was saying that mumbai will gonna win but i told all of them that chennai will going to take the cup this time and that only happened. This year also chennai gonna win because dhoni is the captain.
I think its nearly the team function and a few great person performances which can allow u win the game
In the initial ipl auction deccan chargers were really a great aspect(andrew symonds,gibbs,Gilchrist)…but they truly fall short to carry out,but of course correct
now Chennai seems really great … because they have retained the majority of their gamers….so team spirits are strong as before….whereas other people groups will need the rebuild the strength as soon as again
mumbai indians will also be searching good
treeet is prepared….lets cheers for ipl4
