RCB sign Gayle on for two seasons

Royal Challengers Bangalore have signed Chris Gayle, former West Indies captain, for the next two IPL seasons.

Gayle joined RCB for the 2011 IPL as a replacement for Dirk Nannes. He was the recipient of the Orange Cap for being the highest scorer in IPL 2011. He also played for RCB in the CLT20 2011. He was a part of the Kolkata Knight Riders in the first three editions of the IPL.

“We are delighted to make Chris Gayle a permanent member of our IPL squad. He is one of the best batsmen in the world. His form helped us qualify for the final of the 2011 edition of the tournament. We are confident that with players like him in our side, we will take the extra step this season, and win our maiden IPL title,” Sidhartha Mallya, Director, Royal Challengers Sports Pvt Ltd, said.

“I had a great time representing RCB last year. It is a terrific outfit. The players are brilliant. They are complemented by the support-staff and administrators, all of whom have gone out of their way to make the players comfortable, and give them the freedom to express themselves on the field. To me, Bangalore has been a home away from home. I wanted to continue playing for them, and it turned out that they were keen to retain my services. I look forward to returning to namma Bangalore soon,” Chris Gayle said.

“Chris Gayle is one of those cricketers who was born to excel in all formats of the sport. He was at his destructive best in IPL 2011, and one can safely assume that we will see a lot more fireworks emanate from his blade, in the forthcoming IPL seasons,” Rajeev Shukla, Chairman, IPL, commented.

Mumbai Indians buy Karthik from Kings XI Punjab, give Sathish

CHENNAI: Former India 'keeper and Tamil Nadu mainstay Dinesh Karthik has joined theMumbai Indians from Kings XI Punjab in the first significant transfer before IPL 5. 

He was bought by Mumbai for an undisclosed sum but according to sources, "it was easily the highest sum paid to buy a domestic player from another team in the history of the IPL". MI swapped former TN all-rounder Rajagopal Sathish with Karthik. 

"It's a big opportunity for me and I'm looking forward to have a great time with the Mumbai Indians in the forthcoming season," Karthik told TOI on Thursday. 

Though Karthik didn't want to go into the financial details of the deal, it was learnt that the right-hander was offered somewhere between Rs 11-13 crore. 

"MI are a very good side and I'll be fortunate if I can add value to the team," Karthik added.

Indian advertisers keep faith with struggling cricketers

MUMBAI: The Indian Test side's continued freefall in Australia has infuriated the media and angered fans back home but advertisers and broadcasters are refusing to give up on cricket, given a lack of alternatives and the fickleness of local supporters. 

Since the euphoria of a 2011 World Cup victory on home soil in April, nothing has gone right for Mahendra Singh Dhoni's team, who lost the number one Test ranking to England after a 4-0 series whitewash on a tour there a few months later. 

A similar humiliation looms in Australia, where they have been thoroughly outplayed in the first three matches of a four-Test series but media planners insist cricket remains a hot property. 

"Overall, there won't be much of a difference. Cricket as a property is still hot and advertisers will look to get on board," Sanjay Chakraborty of ZenithOptimedia said. 

The humiliation in Australia, however, would give more bargaining power to advertisers buying slots for the one-day international tri-series that followed the Tests from February 5, he added. 

ESPN-STAR Sports India are broadcasting the series and the company's senior director of corporate development, Rathindra Basu, believes the side only needed one good tournament to win back fans who may have turned their back on cricket. 

"All it takes is one big win or one big hundred and you will find that all the negativity will disappear," Basu said. 

Cricket drew more than a quarter of the country's total advertising revenue of $2.41 billion last year and it is likely to remain the same this year with big-ticket events like the Indian Premier League (IPL) and the Twenty20 World Cup in Sri Lanka lined up. 

"Cricket gets Indians together like nothing else. Also, events like the IPL are a mix of entertainment and cricket and they appeal to the youth and female audiences, which is a boon for advertisers," said Rohit Gupta, president of Multi Screen Media, who own telecast rights for the lucrative Twenty20 event. 

In India's uni-sport culture, cricket dominates sports advertising revenue and Dhoni is one of the prime beneficiaries, having signed a two-year deal with a talent management company for two trillion rupees ($39.70 million) in 2010. 

The previous highest by an Indian cricketer was Sachin Tendulkar's three-year deal with another firm for $35.8 million. 

None of them stood to lose in terms of brand value, said television commercial maker Prahlad Kakkar

"People like Dhoni and Sachin are sought after because they are icons. As of now, I don't see anything affecting their brand value," Kakkar said. 

Hero MotoCorp, which has batsman Virender Sehwag and bowler Ishant Sharma as brand ambassadors, is another major sponsor staying loyal to cricket. 

"Our commitment to the promotion of the game does not change on the basis of the fluctuating fortunes of the national team," Hero MotoCorp senior vice-president (marketing & sales) Anil Dua said. 

"Our commitment is for the long-term promotion of cricket and cricketers in the country," Dua added.

Pune Warriors retain Ganguly for coming IPL season 5

NEW DELHI: Inducted as an injury replacement last year, former India captainSourav Ganguly has been retained by Pune Warriors for the coming Indian Premier Leagueseason. 

Ganguly had signed up with the outfit after the start of the tournament last year. He had been a part of the Kolkata Knight Riders in the first three editions of the Twenty20 event and had led the side in 2008 and 2010. 

"We are privileged to have a player of Sourav Ganguly's calibre in our squad. He has been one of India's greatest and most inspirational cricketers. We have no doubt that his presence in the team will boost the team's prospects in the IPL, and motivate the boys to excel themselves," Abhijit Sarkar, Pune Warriors director, said. 

IPL chairman Rajeev Shukla said the presence of veteran such as Ganguly enhances the league's appeal. 

"Sourav Ganguly's record speaks for itself. Icons like him only enhance the phenomenon that is the IPL. He has always set high standards for himself, and we can expect some outstanding performances from him in the tournament," Shukla said. 

Elsewhere, Kings XI Punjab have signed David Miller, the middle-order batsman from South Africa, for the next two seasons.
