Excitement gripped the air when the Telugu Warriors and the Mumbai Heroes clashed at the Sharjah International Stadium on Friday night.
* The Telugu Warriors batted first and lost an early wicket. However, this setback was soon balanced when Akhil Akkineni came in to bat. He shared the Man Of The Match title with Mumbai Heroes’ Varun Badola. The match was, however, tied.
* The face-off between the Telugu Warriors and Mumbai Heroes never ended with the match. There was another face-off of sorts when the brand ambassadors of the two teams, Genelia and Charmee, competed in their cheering for their respective teams. The two were seen jumping and cheering for their teams but observers say that it looked more like they were competing with each other to grab attention.
* Close associates at the Celebrity Cricket League say that Salman Khan looked extremely disturbed during the match. “He kept a low profile and looked worried. He wasn’t his usual cheerful self.”
