Delhi Daredevils on Tuesday launched its new official song `Munday Dilli Ke` to herald the upcoming season of the India Premier League, that kicks off on April 4.

English batsman Kevin Pietersen, who has been transferred to Delhi Daredevils for the fifth edition of the IPL, on Thursday said he was delighted to make a comeback to the cash-rich tournament and hoped that his new franchisee would regain its lost consistency in the upcoming season.

No one can fault his effort as far as his bowling in this IPL is concerned, but star all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan feels that it's about time that he starts contributing with the willow.

Stating that players of Sachin Tendulkar's calibre would not be playing forever, former South Africa cricketer Jonty Rhodes said it is important that the youngsters who emerge from tournaments like the Indian Premier League are good all-round cricketers.

India's batting great Sachin Tendulkar said Friday that spot-fixing incidents in the recently concluded Indian Premier League (IPL) were not setting a good example for the game.

Kolkata Knight Riders co-owner Shah Rukh Khan exuded confidence ahead of his team's IPL final against defending champion Chennai Super Kings, saying they will play their best on Sunday.

Former India captain Ravi Shastri has said while Vivian Richards was best batsman of his era, Sachin Tendulkar and Brian Lara have been the two most extraordinary players in the modern generation.

India's premier anti-tobacco watchdog, NOTE has expressed concern over superstar Shahrukh Khan's arrogant behaviour with which he time and again decides to ‘‘trample’’ the law and smoke in public places.

The Sahara Pune Warriors in all likelihood will have to settle with existing rule of having four overseas cricketers in their playing XI instead of their demand of an additional foreign player for the fifth edition of Indian Premier League.

The stage is decked up to witness the fifth edition of the Indian Premier League Twenty20, starting April 2012. The Twenty20 tournament is a good platform for youngsters as it provides an opportunity for a player to select what kind of cricket he wants to play.
