The second match of the Celebrity Cricket League between the Karnataka Bulldozers and Mumbai Heroes was almost reminiscent of the IPL match between RCB and MI held in Bengaluru.
The only difference being that Karnataka Bulldozers came out victorious in this match.
The stadium, as expected was a sea of blue with everyone waving their flags for the Karnataka Bulldozers and whistling for their favourite star, Kiccha Sudeep.
The response was overwhelming as he, the captain walked into the field for the toss. Having won the toss, he decided to field.
It was, indeed, an endearing sight to see actors warming up to the music of
especially his hit Kannada and Hindi numbers.
While Bollywood actor and captain Suniel Shetty was seen practicing his fielding and motivating the players, on the other side was Ambareesh, the ambassador of Karnataka Bulldozers, chanting ‘Hoo haa hoo haa,’ to cheer his team!
After having lost the toss, the captain of the Mumbai Heroes, Suniel Shetty said, “Cricket is something that all of us are passionate about and we’re going to have a fabulous time out there.”
And it was no big surprise to hear the deafening screams from the crowd (the stadium was half full), when the anchor shouted, “Who is supporting the Karnataka Bulldozers today?”
The match, though delayed, began with much pomp and ceremony. Sohail Khan and Varun Badola came out to bat and unfortunately for Heroes fans, Sohail Khan got out in the very first over. Much to the delight of our local fans, Sudeep’s boys did a fabulous job fielding, bowling and egging the crowd on.
And guess who was sitting in the crowd cheering the opposition? Sonakshi Sinha!
She looked absolutely stunning waving and cheering when the camera panned towards her. Salman Khan, however, seemed to be a sea of calm as he was seen talking to Sohail Khan and playing with his nephew.
Cinema and cricket have always been a heady mix for the Indian audience, and when the two came together, it seemed to be a lethal combination.
Chennai Rhinos won by 21 runs and Karnataka Bulldozers won by 7 wickets with the Man of the Match being Dhruv Sarja, There is no doubt that the players will receive the same adulation in other cities.
