18.01.2011
Mumbai, January 18, 2011: Mumbai Indians, the most followed franchisee of the Indian Premier League has added 11 uncapped players to their squad for the fourth season of IPL. Ambati Rayudu, R Sathish, T Suman, Dhawal Kulkarni, Pawan Suyal, Abu Nechim, Ali Murtaza, Sarul Kanwar, Yuzvendra Chahal, S K Yadav and Aditya Tare have joined MI. - Welcome Gentlemen 8-)
While Ambati Rayudu, Dhawal Kulkarni, Pawan Suyal, R Sathish, Aditya Tare, Abu Nechim and Ali Murtaza have been an integral part of the MI success story in IPL season 3, T Suman will don the Mumbai Indians’ blue for the first time.
Sarul Kanwar – Right handed opening batsman from Punjab, Yuzvendra Chahal –20-year-old leg spinner from Haryana and S K Yadav – another 20-year-old right hand batsman from Mumbai - will be making their IPL debut through Mumbai Indians this season.
Announcing the final squad, Mumbai Indians’ spokesperson said, “We are delighted to add 11 talented players to our squad for IPL season 4. We believe the addition of new players will further strengthen our core beliefs, besides ably supporting the exceptional all round talent, which we have successfully bid for at the IPL 4 auction. By adding fresh talent, we reinforce our promise to promote young talent at an international platform.”
Earlier at the IPL Season 4 auction, Mumbai Indians had successfully bid for Rohit Sharma, Munaf Patel, Andrew Symonds, Davy Jacobs, Clint McKay, James Franklin, Moises Henriques and Aiden Blizzard.

T Suman is a valuable addition to the squad. :clap:
R Sathish gets another chance despite quite ordinary performances last year.
Has anyone picked Vignesh? What happened to him? I cant even see his name in Chennai Club Cricket scores in THE HINDU :(
Actually, I feel Rayudu deserved a chance in ODIs in the last few months. Somehow, the lad's unlucky - I guess by the time he makes an impression now and comes into national reckoning, he will reach the stage Badri was in when he was given a chance - washed out and tired. Lost talent - he really is a class batsman. I am really, really surprised and annoyed that a kAttAn like Saurabh Tiwary got India chances over him.
I am slowly gravitating towards feeyar's stance on IPL

Johannesburg: India coach Gary Kirsten is not in the running for a similar job in the South African side but could be involved with Mumbai Indians in the IPL, a report said on Wednesday.
According to the report, Kirsten's good rapport with Sachin Tendulkar could lead to the former South African opener being appointed in a top position in Mumbai Indians which is to appoint a director of coaching before the IPL IV.
"Indian cricket had hoped to persuade Kirsten to change his mind about not renewing his contract, but gave up on it this week. Future options for Kirsten could involve the Indian Premier League," a report in The Times said.
"The close relationship that Kirsten has with Sachin Tendulkar may lead to co-operation between the two at the Mumbai Indians, who are expected to appoint a director of coaching before the next IPL season," it said.
"Kirsten could easily take up such a position while still developing his international academy that is in the planning
stage at Claremont Cricket Club in Cape Town," it added.
Kirsten, who will quit as India's coach after the World Cup ends in April, is reluctant to take up the Proteas job when caretaker Corrie van Zyl steps down, also in April.
The report also said current India bowling coach Eric Simons could not be ruled out as a possible candidate to replace Kirsten.
"The Indian cricket board has not yet started a process to recruit a successor to Kirsten, but it is not unlikely that it will approach Simons as a candidate. Simons, a former Proteas all-rounder and national coach, was highly regarded by the Indian team when he came aboard this summer," the report said.
Meanwhile, the South African coaching job is likely to go to Duncan Fletcher. The former England coach has been advising
the South Africans and it is understood he would be available.
Fletcher's coaching credentials would be hard to resist for Cricket South Africa, whose chief executive Gerald Majola recently promised a 'big name' for the job when Van Zyl's term ends, the report said.
