KOKLATA KNIGHT RIDERS
Squad: Sourav Ganguly, Ishant Sharma, Murali Kartik, Ajit Agarkar, Chris Gayle, Ricky Ponting, David Hussey, Brendon McCullum, Mohammad Hafeez, Salman Butt, Umar Gul, Tatenda Taibu, Laxmi Shukla, Saurasish Lahiri, Siddarth Kaul, Iqbal Abdulla, Wriddhiman Prasanta Saha, Rohan Banerjee, Yashpal Singh, Aakash Chopra, Debabrata Das, Cheteshwar Pujara.
Coach: John Buchanan - Buchanan coached Australia's all-conquering team from 1999-2007, a period during which they won two World Cups and a record 16 consecutive Test matches. However, he has not had too much experience of Twenty20 cricket.
Captain: Sourav Ganguly - Having made a successful comeback to the Test team after a spell out in the cold, the IPL will now give the former Indian skipper an opportunity to prove that he is far from finished in the shortest version of the game.
Outlook: Big hitters at the top of their order mean the Knight Riders could drive opposition bowlers to insanity. Chris Gayle and Brendon McCullum should love trying to outdo each other until they disappear due to international commitments, something which will also mean the loss of Australian captain Ricky Ponting. The bowling attack will be based around India's latest seam star, Ishant Sharma. He'll be backed up by Umar Gul and a host of home-based talent led by Ajit Agarkar.
