King of Sixers - Mathew Hayden
King of Dosra - Muthiah Muralitharan
King of T20 - MS Dhoni

King of IPL - Chennai Super Kings.

Chennai Super Kings are gonna win the inaugural IPL like Chennai Superstars won the ICL.

I disagree........

1) Shahid Afridi.........

2) Saqlain Mushtaq.....who invented it...

3) King of T20.......No-one........

4) King of IPL or 'Kings' of IPL.......We can't have so many Kings........

It's the Ad of Chennai Super Kings.

And I do agree with it.

Ads apart.. I like Chennai has one of the strongest teams around. It's a young team (except Steven Fleming none of the members have retired from active cricket).

In terms of Team strength:
Chennai>Hyderabad>Kolkata>Delhi>Chandigarh>Mumbai> Bangalore>Jaipur (Chennai, Hyderabad and Kolkata seem to have nice and strong combination).

2kewl · 14-04-2008, 12:25 AM

Muahaha...Chargers are gonna run over everyone, just like the bull in their logo
