Wisdom of King
Gregory King believes the pleasant weather in South Africa during this time of the year could provide some relief to the teams as they grapple with a gruelling schedule in the Indian Premier League (IPL).
Back from Injuries
"The cricketers appear to be in good shape" said King. Pacemen Joginder Sharma and Sudip Tyagi are returning from injuries, "Joginder had an injury to his heel and, so far, he has looked good. Tyagi has come back from a stress fracture of the back. I think he has recovered well," he said. [Just hope Jacob Oram also joins this list]
