After when ICC worldcup finished and india won the biggest tournament then India begin ipl tournament with gorgeous programme!!!As the IPL 2011 season is just a few days away, all franchise teams are busy with preparations for the season. Almost all the teams could finalize their team well in advance either by retaining the erstwhile players or acquiring new players from the IPL auction or both. However, many teams are being put to hunting of players because a number of players are not able to play in the IPL matches due to injuries they had during the ICC World Cup 2011.
The new franchise team Pune Warriors seems to be the worst affected in this aspect. Angelo Mathews, the all rounder from Sri Lanka was bought by Pune Warriors for a hefty sum of $950000. The Sri Lankan cricketer met with an injury during the WC semifinal against New Zealand. Mathews had to be away from the World Cup final match and he has been declared unfit for the IPL season also thereby necessitating a replacement. Suraj Randiv replaced him in the World Cup finals.
