The Fake IPL Player: Mystery Solved?

Techtree News Staff, Apr 27, 2009 1819 hrs IST

2 from the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR)fired

As people bet money on who this Fake IPL Player is, two Knight Riders

from the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) have been fired - Sanjay Bangur and Akash Chopra.

As reported by Zopag.com, KKR's co-owner Shahrukh Khan suspects the duo as the purported bloggers who have been leaking the team's inside news.


However, the Fake IPL Player's last post on April 26 narrates a different story. Somewhere in the beginning of his post, he says:

"We are missing a few members of our family who have gone back home. It's always painful to see some of your own being culled and I am not in any mood for humour."

The blog post is full of KKR-management-bashing in the usual sarcastic, entertaining language. Just as one would want to believe that Bangur and Chopra (a.k.a. Shakespeare and Ganji) were shown the exit door for being the news correspondents of the infamous Fake IPL Player blog, 'The Fake IPL Player' wraps up with a footnote saying:

"P.P.P.S. Initially, I was concerned as I thought they have been sacked on suspicions of being me. But when they spoke to all of us, I was relieved that it has nothing to do with Fake IPL."

Two out, a bunch of others to go? Who dunnit?!!

"It's an inner world-outer world kind of documentary," said Khan, speaking exclusively to HT. "Hopefully, the parts that people will get to see of me — at work and at other places — will shed some light on how films and film stars work and offer an insight into how I do things." Khan said he has got to know the crew quite well ("They have been very unobtrusive"). For Discovery Travel & Living, this series will be one of the biggest global productions to come out of India and will be shown all over the world. "We haven't yet decided when we're going to telec...
