Sunil Gavaskar and Ravi Shastri assured us that coming years will be very big for Indian cricket: Virender Sehwag

Indian Premier League has taken Indian cricket by storm would be an understatement. But two legends of Indian cricket had seen it coming before the cash-rich league was launched in 2008.This was revealed by former Indian opener Virender Sehwag at a press conference organized by Star Sports on Thursday to celebrate 15 years of the IPL.Recalling the first IPL auction, which happened back in 2008 when he was with the Indian team in Australia, Sehwag said, "A lot of time has passed since the inception of the IPL. My children have become adults and they've started playing cricket too. But I will never forget the first time we were briefed about this when we were in Australia. Sunil Gavaskar and Ravi Shastri approached us and said that there is going to be an Indian Premier League and they were asking for all our rights. So, we were wondering whether the league would be successful or not – what if after giving away our rights we do not gain anything from it. But they assured us that the coming years will be very big for cricket in India and whatever rights we grant to this league, we will be able to earn much more than that. Money was secondary at the time, but we didn't know that the league would give rise to so many youngsters who would one day replace us and become stars."Sehwag also talked about how performance in the T20 franchise tournament has become a crucial parameter for foreign players.

Cheteshwar Pujara - A milestone to savour for marathon man Cheteshwar Pujara - timesofindia.indiatimes.com - Britain - Australia - India - Sri Lanka - Delhi - county Sussex

A milestone to savour for marathon man Cheteshwar Pujara

On eve of 100th Test, Cheteshwar Pujara reveals how playing white-ball domestic cricket for Sussex spurred his late-career revivalNEW DELHI: Exactly a year ago, Cheteshwar Pujara's chances of making it to his 100th Test seemed to have diminished drastically when the selectors decided to leave him out for the home series against Sri Lanka. He was at 95 Tests then. On Thursday morning, the eve of the second Test against Australia at the Arun Jaitley Stadium, Pujara turned up with a beaming smile after a light optional nets session. The pride of representing India in a Test match for the 100th time was unmistakable.Pujara understands he isn't the quintessential hitman like most modern-day batters. He is, instead, the calm in the chaos. "I am the same Cheteshwar as a person. If you speak to people who know me, I am the same person and I don't think you need to change if you are a good human being," he proudly said.Being dropped last year surely shook things up for Pujara. At 34, the wiggle room was very little. He decided to skip IPL auctions, no doubt because he has gone unsold for most of the last six-seven auctions. The deal to play with Sussex in the English county championship came his way. But he needed a clear plan before that stint began.
