KINGS XI PUNJAB SQUAD

DELHI DAREDEVILS SQUAD

IPL 2013 OPENING CEREMONY

The opening ceremony for the sixth season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) cricket tournament will be held at Eden Gardens in the city of Kolkata, the largest in the country and the second-largest in the world. The ceremony is to start at 7pm local time (2.30pm BST) on Tuesday. 


Preview:
The defending champions, the Kolkata Knight Riders, won the right to host the opening ceremony of the 2013 IPL opening ceremony, when they beat two-time IPL champions Chennai Super Kings in a close-fought final last year.
The opening ceremony, over the past six years of the IPL, has grown in size and stature to become one of the largest sports-related entertainment events in the world, boasting a combined audience of over 50 million people. And such numbers means the event ranks alongside the Super Bowl, in the US.
The 2012 opening ceremony was held in the southern Indian city of Chennai, with performances from pop icon Katy Perry and Bollywood stars Salman Khan, Kareena Kapoor and Priyanka Chopra. This time around, the Indian film industry's most glamorous on-screen couple - Shah Rukh Khan and the UK-born Katrina Kaif will take to the stage. And the pièce de résistance will be a concert by rapper Pitbull.
The event organisers were working to bring Grammy and Brit Awards-nominated actress and singer Jennifer Lopez to perform but reports indicate an agreement between the Hollywood superstar and the organisers failed to materialise, after unreasonable demands from the former.
IPL 2013:
The sporting extravaganza, which concludes on 26 May, will see a total of 76 matches played between the nine franchises. IPL 2013 is at the forefront of the most contemporary version of cricket - a hard-hitting, fast-paced and adrenaline-filled game of 20 overs per side.
The Indian Premier League is funded by investors who buy rights to franchises based in cities across the country. Investors then spend money to sign high-profile players from across the world, while ensuring there is adequate representation both from the local area (to help improve the standards of young Indian cricketers) and the country as a whole.
IPPL 2013 begins on 3 April with the first match between the Kolkata Knight Riders and the Delhi Daredevils, at the Eden Gardens stadium.

SAMSUNG GALAXY S IV REVIEW


Samsung Galaxy S IV is set to make its debut at a special event at Radio City Music Hall in New York, where the company will introduce its much awaited flagship smartphone.

While a series of leaks have already revealed hardware, design details, new features and specifications of the Galaxy S IV, you cannot be too sure till you hear from the horse's mouth.

Looking at the trend of current flagships such as the Sony Xperia Z and HTC One sporting 1080p screens, the phone will almost certainly feature a 4.99-inch 1080p AMOLED display. 

The Galaxy S IV is also expected to be powered by the Exynos 5 Octa 8-core processor and/ or a Qualcomm CPU, depending upon the region, and have 2 GB RAM. With all that raw power under the hood, we expect the phone to be a smooth operator when it comes to performance.

The phone is also expected to feature a 13-megapixel camera. While megapixels don't always determine the quality of a phone's camera, it looks like it's now becoming standard among flagships. While Samsung's previous offerings also came with good camera sensors, we'd expect Samsung to bring in new software features such as simultaneous dual camera video capture, and good low-light shots. 

As evident from the various leaks, the phone is also expected to come with a dual-SIM variant in certain markets, have a microSD card slot as standard and a 2,600 mAh battery, in addition to NFC capabilities.

Of course Samsung will also add software features through its Touchwiz user interface on top of the Android 4.2.1 OS it's expected to run. While the 'Smart Scroll' and 'Smart Pause' features were confirmed by a series of screenshots, new videos of the smartphone's interface revealed the floating touch feature, hand gesture controlled Internet browsing and a new unlock screen.
