Story The Champions are Here. [**Warriors- Road to CLT20**]

[2009]

Udawatte is the player

 

[surendar]

With story given a neat start in first page, I would suggest this story

1) To kick off with story line [ I am yet to see a debut of storyline in this ]
2) Contests need not be over-used.

No hard intentions for above suggestion, but just my thoughts. No hurries with time. Take your own.

Namaskaar ladies and gentlemen, here is yet another episode of the program "Road to CLT20," which deals about how the teams made it into the Champions League T20. This time, with my presentation, you might have known that its an Indian team, which we're dealing with. So, to confirm it officially, its the MUMBAI INDIANS, about whom, we're gonna discuss.

Mumbai Indians, a team which dominated the Indian Premier League III and missed the title by a whisker, is lead by the one and only, Sachin Tendulkar. He was the orange cap holder in IPL III. The batting looks strong on paper with the likes of Sachin Tendulkar, Sanath Jayasuriya, JP Duminy, Dwayne Bravo, Ambati Rayudu, Saurabh Tiwary, Rajgopal Satish etc. Bowling looks equally strong with the likes of Zaheer Khan, Lasith Malinga, Harbhajan Singh, Dwayne Bravo, Dhawal Kulkarni. Sachin Tendulkar, the skipper feels that winning CLT20 ain't a big deal if they implement everything as planned. "See, in IPL 2008 and IPL 2009, we couldn't properly implement what we actually planned in dressing rooms. But in IPL 2010, we could implement the paperwork upto some extent. We've got everything except proper implementation and I'm sure this time, its going to be fixed."

Many feel that Mumbai Indians will play even better cricket at South Africa. This time, the team doesn't have the facilities of Kieron Pollard, as he has been with South Australia Redbacks. So, lets wish Mumbai Indians a good luck for their journey in Champions league.

The presentation is pretty good. Its very surprising to see Jayasuriya in the squad!

Pollard is missing right, so Jayasuriya came in.

 

[Dutchmen]

Damn your Jayasuriya! you shouldn't been in any of the lists and being too old, should stop playing cricket.

 

[shantanu_rooney]

Jayasuriya I would go for anyone else. Anyways no Pollard is a big blow for Mumbai. Hopefully they could cope without him.

I had to choose one between the following:
Sanath Jayasuriya.
Dilhara Fernando.

I went with Jayasuriya cause he can attack opposition with bat as well as ball, whereas Fernando can just attack the opposition with his bowling.
Graham Napier is an English. So he'll have his county commitments.
And Kieron Pollard plays for South Australia. Rest four are selected.

Binnu added 2 Minutes and 4 Seconds later...

And wait!
Can you people see the images?
