Mitchell Johnson, Tim Southee, Ravicandran Ashwin, Karn Sharma will be bowling to young Indians Robin Uthappa, KL Rahul, Manish Pandey and Manvinder Bisla. Interesting to see this contest. I guess this will be the match deciding fight (Ahmedabad Bowling v Punjab Batting) in our perspective. Good luck Ahmedabad :) .

This is the first time ever in PlanetCricket history that a team from Bihar will be participating in a Premier League and managed by a cricket enthusiast from the same region.
This team boast some of the best T20 players of current era.
Ajinkya Rahane who has been in tremendous form recently. He will play a key role in top order.
Shreevats Goswami is another talent who has been good in past and will surely play a crucial part in opening with Rahane.
I won't say anything about Jacques Kallis, he needs no introduction.
Kevin Pietersen, well he was one of the key player when England won their 1st ICC WC T20 and currently scoring runs in CPL. Suryakumar Yadav is another emerging talent who will be important in lower order. Andre Russell, Most Valuable T20 player of 2015 and Hottest property right now. He can single handedly turn a game for his team.
Deepak Hooda, No one can forget his sixes.
Mitchell Starc, Yorkers-Line-Speed- Discipline.
Ashish Nehra, Old is Back!
Lakshmipathy Balaji, Hattrick taker!
Sandeep Sharma, The bowler who can be lethal with Starc.


Patna Pirates are looking to start their journey with bang.​
 
Was going to open with both Singh and Ankush Bains initially but then thought better of it and decided to demote him and have Morgan at 2 instead. He can bat but I decided against throwing him in at the deep end against an all guns blazing attack of Zaheer Khan and Varun Aaron, unsure of how he'd fare against them.

Match Summary
Code:
Pune Black Panthers - 213/9 in 20.0 overs. 
Chennai Ironbirds - 157/8 in 20.0 overs. 

Pune Black Panthers won the match by 56 runs.

MotM: Corey Anderson
 
Shahid Afridi bowled only 1 over :( the most important bowler from Pak in T20s given very less time the bowl..
 
At oppsotion 45-5 60% match was in ours hand but Corey Pandey took it away, no problems its just the start. many matches left for comeback.
 
Monumental recovery! Still wondering how we pulled that off, just goes to show how individual performances can make or break a team in the shorter format. That Anderson-Pandey partnership is going down in the record books, other teams'll do well do even come close to that in the upcoming matches.
