Fake IPL Player is Back

Where there is excess money, there is dirt, back-stabbing, and conspiracy theories galore. Controversies have followed the immense success of the Twenty20 tournament, which was launched by the BCCI in 2008 with the backing of the International Cricket Council.

With huge money at stake, the tournament, modelled on the franchise system, has had many offshoots on and off the field. One of them was a blog by a person known only as the 'Fake IPL Player'. It became a big success on the Web during the last season of the IPL because of the way it detailed the dirty goings-on inside a franchise; the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR).

The KKR management took the blog seriously and is believed to have suspected a few players, who could possibly be either writing the blog themselves or passing on inside information to the anonymous blogger.

Now the anonymous player/person has shifted from his blog to a brand new website. I know that all of you also know that what is the name of his website, guess!!!

The basic relation b/w new dishes and new media….

We talk about creative “juice”, we talk about “new recipe”, we talk about “new tone, new texture, new taste”. The context could be a new brand development or could be a new invented or discovered dish.

Its all about conceiving a new thought, performing the methodology with new touch and “visual audit” (in certain places menu cards are not so extensive).

And “portfolio” changes all the time, with more experiences. But couple of esteemed, niche “jobs” are always there – Oly’s beef steak, for instance…….
