All about T20 cricket

The angry punjab da putter has did it again. Yes , he has again created trouble for him self, and this time by indulging with his own team mate. In an IPL match in Mohali, the Bhajji slapped Sreesanth and thus making every one amazed by his act. No one knows, what made him so angry that he went on to slap his team mate. and thus earning a ban of 10 matches.
Despite of the fact that, Bhajji made his debut just few seasons after Rahul and other seniors in the Team, but still he is not counted in the seniors. Can you guess the reason?
Its just simple, because of his immaturity and anger.

But one can also not deny the fact that, this all episode can be a Marketing gimmick as well by the authorities to just attract the viewers attention to IPL, which is not up to the mark. As most of the teams are facing problems in getting the sponsors and they are not able to break even for at least next few years to come. This will help IPL to get attention of the audience.

This BCCI's child has problems right from its birth, and the latest addition is the departure of some Aussies and New Zea landers from the game in between, to represent their country in the forthcoming tours. and soon the South African will be joining them. Thus creating a problem with the much hyped league.
The main reason for this problem is the non consideration of IPL by ICC in their calender years. Thus letting this IPL child in trouble in its first year itself.

Even before the first ball of this league was bowled it has been under the scanner and various controversies are arising around it, but everything has taken the back sit after the incident of 25^th April in the match between Mumbai Indians & Kings 11 Punjab. At the end of this match, Harbhajan Sing, the turbonater of India and a player of Mumbai Indians, slapped S.Sreesanth, angry young bowler of Kings 11 Punjab as well as Indian senior cricket team. It was said that Harbhajan became so irritated by constant attitude of Sreesanth that he couldn’t hold himself and slapped him after the match. Harbhajan said that he just knocked him as an elder brother. But things have become critical after Nes Wadia & Preity Zinta, the owner of Kings 11 Punjab wanted evasive action against Harbhajan.

Things could have gone under the mat if there was no such evidence but the video footage that was found, could become the deciding factor of Harbhajan’s fate. On Monday, the 28^th of April at Mohali, match referee Farokh Engineer will give his verdict after the hearing. In this crucial meeting, Neil Maxwell, Yuvraj Sing and S.Sreesanth will be present. This is surely going to be a hot discussion as the whole Mumbai team is with Harbhajan and their coach & captain will support this off-spinner.

But the important factor is if Harbhajan is found guilty then he could get a suspension of 5 Test or 10 ODI matches. It will ultimately hit the senior Indian cricket team.

Whatever happens, cricket should be played in the proper manner and every rule should be maintained thoroughly. Infact Farokh Engineer has clearly confirmed that the decision will be taken on the basis of ICC’s code of conduct. So let’s wait for the verdict because Harbhajan’s case can keep a crucial impact in the following fixtures of Indian cricket team.
