IPL chairman Rajeev Shukla: The IPL as a stand-alone (product) is doing very well, IPL-9 will do better; it will grow further, it will go to many more countries. No leagues are any closer to the IPL and they cannot be a match to the IPL.
DD official T.A. Sekar: We feel that he (Chris Morris) is a very good bowler who can bat a bit. He has been in good form. He is a match-winner and can bowl upfront and at the death.
