There was great interest shown in buying a team in International Premier League. It was simple, you pay the most, you get the team. 
ICC is a bit selfish at times, isn't it? 
We know that all the teams have a owner now but some owners might not be much famous amongst the people who will follow the league. So, lets know a little bit about the owners.
Sim, the owner of Delhi Legends is a businessman. He has a car manufacturing factory, which is quite famous in India. He tried buying a team in the IPL but didn't succeed in doing so but here he is, having a team inInternational Premier League.
Cape Town Centaurs will be managed by Dipak who has a factory in South Africa. In his factory, cricket accessories are made. His company is quite famous in South Africa and mostly every player in the South African team gets his cricket kit accessories from Dipak's factory.
Brendon, who is a former Australian cricket team player will be the owner of Sydney Superstars. Brendon, played 12 tests for Australia, averaged 38 with the bat and took 12 wickets with the bowl. He was said to be a very talented cricketer but due to injuries, Brendon by no means capitalized on his talent. Now, he is owner of a cricket team and will be looking to build up a really good side.
Mohit, owner of Colombo Warriors, Sri Lanka, is a famous actor in India and also in Sri Lanka. Mohit is a tamil actor and so he is a known personality in Sri Lanka as well. He is also a famous personality in Sri Lanka because he has done some movies in Sri Lanka too. People just love him in Sri Lanka. He is a Indian, so we might see some Indian players playing for Sri Lanka.
Some people will say what Haarithan is doing in cricket because he is a former football legend and he was asked the same question by a reporter and he replied, "Ever since I have retired from football, apart from Football, I've really enjoyed watching cricket. I've been following it closely and I'm glad I have a team in International Premier League". Haarithan might just make some football fans watch cricket and that will be great for cricket.
King Khan is a known actor in Pakistan. He is a true lover of cricket and goes to see a cricket match whenever he is free. As he is a big fan of cricket, he will surely want to build a good team for Pakistan and hope that his team wins International Premiere League Season 1.
Riz, the owner of "National Bank Of New Zealand" will be managing the New Zealand team. He has contact with some known cricketers and this will surely help him in building up a good team. No question which team will sponsor the Auckland Aces.
Iridium, who is a former New Zealand cricket player is the owner of Grenada Golems, West Indies. Iridium, averaged 37 with the bat when he played for New Zealand. Some people say that he was very unlucky because he opened the batting in New Zealand domestic but was made to bat at 5th down when he played test cricket for New Zealand. Now, he is owner of a cricket team and will be looking forward to take his team to glory by not being on the field but giving some important advices to the players off the field.
With so many known personalities being owner of the teams. The league has got even more interesting. The owners now will be hoping to buy the best players in the draft and build a really solid team. In this league, we will come to know which player is really capable of being called a "good" player. Test cricket needs patience. It's not like t20 cricket, where bowlers usually don't have a good time but in test cricket, bowlers do get some respect if they bowl well and if the pitch is good for bowling, bowlers do have a good time. A important announcement was made by Aditya once all the teams had a owner, that the season 1 of International Premiere League will be played at England. It's a great news for the bowlers because the pitches in England don't only support batsmen but bowlers as well. This league is surely going to be balanced, the team that has good balance, good batsmen and bowlers will win.

Oh and I guess I can start Round 3 since all managers now have 6 players in their roster .
Kevin Pietersen & Matt Prior
And Adi , KP has not been taken before I did now (but he's missing in that player list) while Viru was picked by me in the first round (but he's still there in that list) . Just make those corrections .
