I am obsessed with cricket. But to be honest, I prefer the IPL format to test matches.
If a player is playing IPL and earning money, it's not his fault that he's not playing for India. He is not quitting. He is playing first-class, one-day cricket and IPL. If selectors don't pick him, what can he do?
People who are talking about banning IPL, they should think about many other things that are troubling the country. People who want to look after IPL will do.
India may be the soul of world cricket, but IPL is its commercial heart. Just as 'Who Wants to be a Millionaire' changed the ground rules for quiz shows by injecting a massive dose of money into the equation, IPL has changed the dynamics of the cricket economy.
Chennai Super Kings will win the IPL. MS Dhoni's
Clever Captaincy is the reason behind Chennai
Super Kings’ success in #? IPL !
I don't think most guys can handle a mic even close to what I do if I'm honest and I say that with no ego, that's the honest truth. I know what I do and I'm self aware.
In the IPL the batters have to come at you, whereas in Test cricket they can sit on you for a full session if they want and if the pitch is dead there is nothing you can do about it.
We like people who are honest. Honest in argument, honest with clients, honest with suppliers, honest with the company - and above all, honest with consumers.
Nothing can be said: nothing sure, nothing probable, nothing honest. Better to err through omission than through commission: better to refrain from steering the fate of others, since it is already so difficult to navigate one's own.
There was a period where our child's birth was getting really close, and we still had nothing. We were dangerously close to calling him Untitled Baby Project.
All we can tell you is that this race is too close for honest pollsters to predict.
In the darkest days of European history, America stood close by us and today we stand close by America. Nothing will ever be the same.
It is important to remember to stay honest and keep your friends close.
The thing about death is that it's honest. I go to things that have a core of honesty about them and there's nothing more honest than death.
There is nothing compared to the feeling of losing life. The moment when you are close to death is nothing but a profound experience.
Nothing is quite honest that is not commercial, but not everything commercial is honest.
