IPL team Preview: Mumbai Indians- 3 Titles in a row!!!

Well in every Franchise based tournament, you expect different teams to win every year as there are weak links everywhere. But hardly do you a find a team as settled as Mumbai Indians. The biggest highlight being that they went into the Auction to buy reserve Players. That's the dominance they boast off and thatn is what makes them the top contender this year. Mumbai Indians is the only team which has a settled 11 already before the auctions and going into the IPL. You can count players...... sorry Match winners on your finger tips. Lets start counting then....... Openers: ROHIT SHARMA & QUINTON DE KOCK  Ice & Fire.... Well I am talking about only the first 2 overs.

There are some people in life who have a lot of pressure of the place they are in during their early years. They grind, they are cooked, they are beaten up and then when they shine they emerge stronger like something never before. The perfect example of these things are Delhi Capitals and their captain this year Rishabh Pant. Ever since they started their careers, both Delhi and Rishabh Pant were under high pressure because of the place that was at stake. Expectations from Delhi Capitals or fomerly Delhi Daredevils since it was the team of the capital, the team representing DELHI in IPL. They could never strive under pressure and were strugglers for 10 years. Similar is the story of Rishabh Pant. He was always under the pump as he had to fill in the shoes of MS Dhoni. Those shoes were too big for him and lead to numerous mistakes with chants of " We want Dhoni" all around him always. He struggled to keep upto that place for long. But now both Delhi Capitals and Rishabh Pant h...

Tata Motors shareholders meet today approved the Hiving off of its Passenger Vehicles Business to a new Unit . Tata Motors currently has a Buisness of Rs 9417 Crore in Passenger Vehicles Segement.  As we all know Passenger Vehicles has been a segment where Tata Motors has seen recent growth.
