Zaheer, Yuvraj will add great value to the team: Kirsten

Delhi Daredevils coach Gary Kirsten feels that
the addition of experienced players like Zaheer
Khan and Yuvraj Singh will add great value to
the team during the eighth edition of the Indian
Premier League scheduled to begin from 8th
April.

After a disastrous season last year, Kirsten, who
is in to his second season as the coach of the
Delhi-based franchise, is looking forward to a
good tournament with new set of players and a
new captain, JP Duminy.

"I am looking forward to it. It has been a tough
two seasons. We have put together a nice
squad, there are some senior players around
the world, exciting youngsters and we have got a
nicely balanced team," said the former South
African opener.

The franchise went for an overhaul of the team
for the second consecutive year and out of the
squad of 25, they have retained only 11 players
from last season. Big buys of last year - captain
Kevin Pietersen and Dinesh Karthik - were let go
of and this year they have added the likes of
Zaheer, Yuvraj and Angelo Mathews to the
team, which according to Kirsten, will benefit
the franchise.

"I had a great experience working with Yuvraj in
the Indian team. He is fit as he has ever been.

For me, I really wanted him in this team as he
is from this part of the world. I dont think there
is a guy more motivated than Yuvraj. So I think
we can have a lot of fun, kind of he can add
value," said Kirsten about the allrounder, while
taking about Zaheer the former India coach
stated that his role will also be to mentor the
young bowlers in the team.

Uncertainty over KKR’s participation in IPL 2015

MUMBAI: Indian Premier League (IPL) defending
champions and the Shah Rukh Khan owned
franchise Kolkata Knight Riders’ (KKR)
participation in IPL 2015 is as yet uncertain.

KKR has made its stand clear that if Sunil
Narine, who is the trump card when it comes to
their bowling attack, is restricted to bowl, the
team will opt out of the cricketing extravaganza.

It all started during the Champions League T20,
where Narine was banned following a suspect
bowling action. The spinner then went to the
nets and rectified his action, which met the
criteria. International Cricket Council (ICC) has
cleared Narine’s action and allowed him to bowl
in the Cricket World 2015. However, the West
Indian voluntarily opted out of the World Cup as
he was not prepared to bowl at a competitive
level in his new action.

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI)
on the other hand refused to surrender to the
threats of KKR and asked them to get Narine’s
bowling action tested at Sri Ramachandra
Medical College in Chennai. As per media
reports, BCCI president Jagmohan Dalimiya said,
“I have had a word with them (KKR). He will
have to appear for the test again, does not
matter once or twice.”

Soon after Dalmiya’s words KKR arranged the
bowler's travel to Chennai. Narine reached
Chennai on the morning of 2 April, 2015 and
went through the tests in the presence of a top
KKR official and other experts before leaving for
Kolkata in the evening.

"We can only say that he has undergone the
tests. We cannot give any further details," a The
Times of India report quoted a KKR official as
saying.
