Rohit hails MI’s new recruits
As they set their sights on reclaiming the IPL trophy in 2015, Rohit believes that Ricky Ponting’s inputs will be crucial to team’s fortunes. While speaking about the new additions to MI he hopes that bowling coach Shane Bond can do for the franchise what he has done for New Zealand. The bowling line-up is a more rounded one with the coming in of Vinay Kumar and Abhimanyu Mithun, who have been consistent performers in India’s domestic circuit in winning titles for Karnataka, and the in-form Josh Hazlewood. And while the captain will take a call on his batting position depending on what the situation demands, he speaks highly of Aaron Finch, who he describes as explosive and will be apt at the Wankhede Stadium.
Rohit, who relishes and cherishes the leadership role goes to great lengthens to lead from the front. The young India star remembers what it is like to be a newcomer in a team of established names and works towards helping the newcomers feel at home as he looks forward to a successful campaign.
BCCI Review Committee clears Sunil Narine
The committee concluded that Mr Sunil Narine, who had remodelled his bowling action, was within the ICC approved limits for all types of deliveries that were assessed and has hence recommended to the BCCI, that his name may be removed from the warning list of bowlers with suspect action.
As a result, Mr Sunil Narine is now allowed to bowl in all BCCI tournaments.
"I am happy that we will witness Sunil Narine in action in the Pepsi IPL 8 , since he is now cleared by the BCCI committee. We look forward to the opening match between Kolkata Knight Riders and Mumbai Indians on the 8th of April in Kolkata, which promises to provide an exciting start to the tournament" said Mr. Anurag Thakur, Hony.
