An Indian to play in the Stanford Super Series.

When last heard, Murali Kartik was nursing an injury. However, he has recovered and since then helped Middlesex clinch the Twenty20
Cup, and is now looking forward to the Stanford Super Series, where his
side will take on an England XI, the Stanford Super Stars, and West
Indies' domestic Twenty20 champions Trinidad in a series of matches.

"Well, I am definitely going to be a part of the Middlesex team that
will play in Antigua this year and am enormously excited about it," he
said.

Lets hope the BCCI does not get too excited and ban him for playing in a rival Twenty20 league.

There is no doubt about it that the BCCI is going to can him unless by now he knows that he might not have much chances to play for India.

Possible...but the chap has a shot at plenty of millions now and probably doesn't care a hoot anymore.

I hate BCCI's my way or highway attitude, thats why I support ICL...

Scorpi,

Even Murali feels likewise. He seems to be the eternal bridesmaid.

Viswanathan said...

Soulberry,

That is a solace. :)

Slogger,

In principle I agree with you. However, ICL lacks the magic of IPL.

Murali will be playing in IPL as well as Stanford If his team wins Stanford he will get a bagful.
