My take on IPL-2 Team's new outfits

There are changes done in outfits of teams in second season of IPL2. Here's my perspective on their changed look..

Banglore Royal Challengers:



I just loved this bright dress of Challengers. They refined their last dress and gave it a sparkling look. Golden lines on Dark Red are making them shine on the field specially at night. Best makeover I see is of their helmet which is now of Golden color. Its adding warrior look. Double thumbs up for the changes done in RC's dress.

Chennai SuperKings:



This team has made the least change in their outfit... Light Orange shade with yellow is going well showing exuberance and intensity but its not the best. They've chosen to continue their simple yellow colour which I think can be worked out more to look better.

Delhi DareDevils:



This team in my view can be sued by English Board!! Just look at their new outfit; a 'Vodafone' logo on chest would make it England's previous outfit.. C'mon, these franchise owner don't have eyes or what. We all know that Blue and Red is a royal combination but just blindly copying someone else is worst.

Deccan Chargers:



Here comes the drastic change. This is the team which learnt lessons from last season and threw their damn uncomplementing combination of T-shirt and trousers and come up with great looking colours! Its sorta dark royal blue with shine and much better when compared to their last season's outfit!!! It really looks damn cool now!

Rajasthan Royals:



The champions of first season liked to remain in blues! Few designer changes made it look bearable than the last seasons'. They don't had the best of outfits in first season! But now with golden borders here and there is making them look - ok!

Kolkata Knight Riders:



They rocked with their glamorous Black-Golden outfit last time. This time they refined their look; changes are visible here and there. Golden stripes on shoulder are now changed to one arm-side golden and other black. It looks good. But the sponsor's logo i.e. of Star Plus at their black takes away all the shine! Imagine Big Blue Logo on shiny Black-Golden outfit.. Awwgh!

Kings XI Punjab:



One more celebrity team! Mohali had changed their outfit once in first season only. This is their second change.. They made it look more shiny this time. Red colour is more bright and silver color is shining! Overall not the best but good!

Mumbai Indians:



Mumbai has maintained their decent outfit in season 2 also! They looked awesome last time in their blues and continues to rock this time also. But the thing i didn't like is the "Idea" logo which is printed on their front side of T's. Yellow colour is looking very bad on nice blue background..

I wish these logos can be customised for the dresses!!

IPL - An addition to NRI List?

Truly, Indian Cricket League is now International Cricket League..
With biggest extravaganza of cricket going abroad to South Africa, its asking few serious questions from Indians! Are we so in capable that we can’t provide security to 1000 people for a month?? Can’t we secure one stadium of country at a time??? After 61 years of independence we’re still helpless in providing security to foreigners!! It’s a blot on our country’s name :(
What if elections are ON? Don’t we have resources to work on simultaneously when IPL governing body was ready for all sorts of twisting in schedule! Its really a shame on Indian machinery and no doubt its going to be burning topic in this current election scenario! BJP will take on Congress government for the same, and cricket will get a political flavor...
Anyways from cricket point of view, IPL will be very much an international event now! Hopefully, free from inside politics of all regional cricket boards and might be safer in hands of franchises.
But the thing which is making me very glad is the international exposure our domestic players are going to get! Many aspiring youngsters from India who got the opportunity last time to rub their shoulders with international players; now they’ll be on moon getting chance to play in abroad conditions and couldn’t have ask more in the name of exposure :)
Financially, this time IPL won’t be able to make large revenues as that of last time cause expenditure in Africa would be on higher side when compared to India! But lets hope Mr. Modi’s team can pull off a great spectacle away from its original home...
