One such team to talk about is the Pune Warriors India. The team is relatively a new team that was added into the IPL as a franchise in 2011 season of play.The home ground of the team is the recently constructed Subrata Roy Sahara Stadium in Pune. Former Indian cricketer Praveen Amre is the head coach of the team with former South African bowler Allan Donald serving as the bowling coach. The colors of the team are turquoise blue and silver and the log of the team is the spear wielding warrior riding a stallion. The team changed their name from the Sahara Pune Warriors to Pune Warriors India. One bad memory surrounding the team is their withdrawal in 2012 when suddenly Sahara decided to withdraw the team from the series, hours before they were about to play. But later they involved SauravGanguly to be a mediator and help the team in this time.

Yuvraj Singh was initially selected to be the captain of the team. He is an amazing batsman with the experience of the old players but had to work hard to prove himself to be a captain that will lead Pune Warriors Indiato success. However, after lots of defeats, he was dropped from the team altogether in 2012 season and had to suffer a setback. SauravGanguly was also taken on as a batsman during the 2012 season but it did not work out to be a good thing. However, for 2013 he has still been retained while Yuvraj Singh has been again retained as a captain.

Another interesting update for the 2013 is that Michael Clarke has been added in the team. He is a seasoned batsman, the likes of Ricky Pointing so he is a great addition to the team. However, with the captaincy of the Australian team might dampen his skills for the matches in IPL. The Pune Warriors India have made a strong team this and are working hard to be perfect in their practice. Let us see what surprises this season brings us.

Pune Warriors India can become a great team if they can organize themselves as till now none of the players have shown or given tremendous contribution especially in terms of two player partnership. Yuvraj Singh is great player but would he have been a great captain?To be honest he did not get enough time to prove himself during 2012. However, in 2013 he has been invited again as a captain. It is all a waiting game now. Let us watch and wait to see how the team performs in 2013 and will Sahara group be in loss for buying the team.
