The wait is almost over. Just two days to go before IPL 2009 kicks off in Cape Town, South Africa on 18th April. It’s sad that the IPL schedule clashed with general election in India and has to move out of India. But, I am happy that at least it is happening. I could not have afforded to be deprived of such exciting month long Cricket Carnival. The bollywood glamor will be on display in full strength as stars like Shahrukh Khan, Juhi Chawla, Preity Zinta, Shilpa Shetty are franchise owners. I bet the fusion of Cricket and Bollywood will run the Election out for sure.
The promotions by the franchises have not been too aggressive this time, probably due to recession and IPL being organized out of India. Shahrukh’s Kolkata Knight Riders, as expected, is the only team which appears not to have been affected. Here are some campaigns released this year.
