Warne, Kumble Confirmed for Singapore iSixes

Move over 11 a side sport, iSixes is here. With teams of six players each, and a lot more action with just 5 overs. Seems like the Hong Kong sixes? Well, all sixes are the same. This one though, has just the Test Playing teams participating along with an All Stars and the home team of course. Sounds like nice entertainment.

Meanwhile, Anil Kumble, India’s Test Captain, as well as Shane Warne, Captain of the Rajasthan Royals, have already accepted the invitation. They would play in the all stars team.

Sixandout’s View: This is just the beginning. When people start realising that enormous amount of money can be generated from non-traditional cricket (the IPL is a great example; rather, it is a foundation), the sky would cease to be the limit. All I can say now is : POOR PLAYERS! In the near future, I don’t think players would even have the time to complain about too much cricket.

More later.
