First we had Yuvraj and now Dada, Pune is surely living upto its reputation. I see lot of jealousy for Pune, but we are used to it, Pune has been beating many cities across India on many fields, we are the under-dogs and we love our reputation.

IPL is played between 9 teams, so only four teams can qualify for the semis. then why compare PWI to Hyderabad. Both teams are doing bad and none of them will qualify for the next round.
I dont mind if Bengal supports Dada but supporting PWI is a treachery; I will not mind if Dada scores a century and PWI looses; I think thats the best way to support your home team; To be fair KKR is rocking this season and the least they expect to get demoralize is their own home show their back to the team. And if Kolkata does this to KKR then it proves the mentality of bengal and the reason why they have been left behind in progressive world.

Progressive world!...If a region in India has progressed that is Bengal (And please don't think that since I am a bengali, I am saying so)....They always support or oppose as per the real cause....and not just being blind they support or oppose...they have emotions properly distributed...And what do u mean by progress?...All round development in education, culture, politics, public awareness,development of urban facilities (remember there are around 60-62 Tier-1 towns in West Bengal..many times greater than in Maharashtra)...As a Metropolis Kolkata has better public transport that any other metro in India...A City with lots of cultural affair (largest book fair in the world,theatre festivals, music festivals, modern art galleries, to name a few), excellent education system (10-12 Universities out of which many are renowned, many CSIR labs),economy (GDP $162 USD), should not be described as merely Progressive but a superb model of actual urbanisation...

I'm no Bengali, but would support whichever team Dada plays in.
In any case IPL is just time pass. Supporting a rival team is not 'treachery'
wonder if mms govt may consider dada for president of the republic as he surely is a inspiring person with a *never say die* attitude which can do the nation a lot of good

sorry, but i am a die hard fan of dada, hence, this emotion, although, i know that our country is not ready for such revolutionary people in high offices
This is in contrary to people from Bengaluru, they were not ready to acknowledge a good boundary shot from Rahul, during RCB vs RR. They should remember that only the owner and two to three cricketers represented the name Bengaluru.
