We seem to be seeing a revolution in which the Royalty is getting overthrown (which happens in all revolutions) in IPL. The Rajasthan Royals in the current IPL are a case in point. The Kings (either from Punjab or Chennai) are also having their thrones rocked incessantly. The Chargers, the Challengers, and the Indians seem to be better off, and the Daredevils still in the reckoning, along with Knights (Riders).
There is of course, an overdose of matches, but you can catch one out of two, and still have your daily fix. Beats going out, in the Nagpur sun, at least- much better to let the highly paid cricketers do all the slogging in the heat. Robin Uthappa finally has shown he can be a match winner, and some of last year's heroes are not doing so well. With Pune and Kochi also joining the bandwagon soon, the scene will be even more confusing in future. But this certainly beats the saas bahu, chhoti (underaged) bahu and similar sagas for me. Only laughter shows are some competition.
We will soon enter the admission interview phase for IMT, and that will keep many of us occupied for a few weeks, selecting the best.
