Aamir, Akshay and Kareena add to glamour ICL

Chandigarh  – The Indian Cricket League (ICL) is conceived as package of cricket and entertainment and nothing can add more punch to an evening of fun and frolic than the presence of film stars.

The ICL, a venture of Essel Group, will have a touch of glamour when their Twenty20 tournament gets under way at the 7,000-capacity Tau Devi Lal Stadium in nearby Panchkula, Friday.

The organisers have roped in filmstars Aamir Khan, Akshay Kumar, Kareena Kapoor and others to be here during the tournament. Top industrialist Anil Ambani is also expected to be here.

Among the popular cricketing names present for the tournament here, though not as players, are former Australian Michael Bevan, who is coach of the Chennai Superstar team to be led by fellow-Australian Stuart Law.

Former Indian batsman and coach Sandeep Patil, who is the coach for Mumbai Champs and his one-time team-mate Madan Lal, will coach Delhi Jets.
