Are You Ready For The
Nerve-Cracking IPL?

We, Indians, tend to forgive and forget too soon. Move over Team India, it’s time for IPL 2015!

Despite India’s debacle in the semifinal round of ICC World cup 2015, India has quickly moved away from it to focus more on the Indian Premier League 2015 that starts at Kolkata’s Eden Gardens next week with defending champions Kolkata Knight Riders playing Mumbai Indians, if they do not boycott the IPL as they threaten now.

Let’s look at five controversies that made the IPL most-talked about besides cricket of course!

1. Spot-fixing claims
