Rahul Dravid held the wheel grimly as his ship bobbed in deep waters before going down for good. His hard-fought 66 could not save Bangalore Royal Challengers from a six-wicket loss in a disastrous batting display against Kings XI Punjab. | After being in the headlines for all the wrong reasons, spunky speedster S Sreesanth is back to what he does best and the pacer insisted he has not mellowed down following the slap-gate involving Harbhajan Singh. Clearly relieved after putting behind the unpleasant memories of recent past, Sreesanth denied the slapping row, which saw Harbhajan being banned from the remainder of the IPL, had curbed his aggression. | Bangalore Royal Challengers captain Rahul Dravid believes the batsmen are to be blamed if the side's semifinal hopes in the Indian Premier League now looks a distant dream. Smarting from the side's fifth defeat in the tournament that came against the Kings XI Punjab XI here tonight, a dejected Dravid did not make any effort to shield his off-colour batting colleagues. | The multi-billion-dollar Indian Premier League (IPL) was not healthy for Australian cricket as it does nothing for grassroots players though elite cricketers are paid well, according to former Test cricketer Greg Matthews. The serious bad news is that the only cats getting to earn out of it are a group of Indians or a couple of individuals. | Minutes after landing in the country, controversial fast bowler Shoaib Akhtar said he was looking forward to a fruitful stint in the Indian Premier League and thanked Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan for his support. I am happy to be in India. I am looking forward to play in the IPL and play my role for my team, said Akhtar, who landed at around 1600 hrs at the Indira Gandhi International Airport from Lahore and was mobbed by reporters and shutterbugs to cause a melee of sorts. | After experiencing a fortnight of glitz and glory in the Indian Premier League (IPL), Australian cricketers say playing on the same side with Indian players has helped mend strained relations. It's been an incredible experience. |
