Respected Dalai Lama is a living legend and my request to him is not to attend the pyjama IPL which is not even cricket!!!! If he is an avid cricket fan I urge him to grace any test match which is the gentleman's form of this game. This mockery of cricket is all about gambling with all the illiterate ministers getting SWEAT EQUITIES(I think the shares they enjoy with the clubs have zero investments from them)under the umbrella of LALITANANDA MODI SWAMI (NO WONDER SHILPA SHETTY IS BACKING HIM. There must be a video which some TV channels must be releasing shortly!!!!!). As many have said IPL must be liquidated and should be taken over by BCCI.
If there is any stadium that i would not ming paying extra for..This is it..what a view..snow clad mountain peaks..fantastic atmosphere..Dhramsala is in itself a stadium in a league of its own

The only mismatch is that the ground has small boundaries, they should have been longer. Small grounds kill the game more since it is easy to hit sixes of even well known bowlers and what more even a 11th team player no great shakes as a batter can hit sixes.
On plus side, the stadium and the ground setting is simply breathtaking, really playing in front of nature's beauty settings is something else. Wonder why the Govt encorages such like grounds to come up in hill stations like Ooty, Coonoor, Nainital, Shillong, etc. Only this is that the infra and other amenities must be ensured to be of world class standards.

because he is the spiritual guru of the tibetans akin to god . they say he is the chosen one .
Watever may be the match- Its a treat to watch this magnificient cricket stadium amidst the Himalayas. The lush green field surrounded by the dhauladhar ranges in the backdrop- great site for a cricket match. A lot of international matches should be played here.
