IPL Teams
IPL has been a revolution to the cricketing world. The eight teams in the IPL have fought like warriors fight in a war. At the end, one emerged victorious. In 2008, it was Rajasthan Royals, whereas this year it was Deccan Chargers. Irrespective of the winner, these 8 teams promised a great show of cricket. The teams were Chennai Super Kings, Deccan Chargers, Delhi Daredevils, Kings XI Punjab, Kolkata Knight Riders, Mumbai Indians, Rajasthan Royals and Royal Challengers Bangalore. The franchises of these 8 teams were sold at a whooping price of $723.59 million.
The captain of Chennai Super Kings is M S Dhoni. This team has reached one final and one semi final, but they are still eyeing for their maiden trophy. Shane Warne captained Rajasthan Royals and guided them to become the first team to win an IPL season. Deccan chargers won the second IPL season. Ironically, they finished at the bottom of the table last year. Delhi daredevils crashed out of the IPL in the semi finals, both the season. Kolkata Knight Riders finished sixth and last in the first and the second season respectively. Mumbai Indians finished fifth and seventh in the first and second season respectively.
