After a week's time of huge excitement, the CPL's inaugural season has come to an end in style. In the finals, Zorits emerged as CPL Championship winners in a thriller against Strikers, the only team who marched into the finals undefeated. It was a very tough and memorable contest, which lasted for almost 3 hours with various moments of make and break.
The CPL Closing ceremony started in the late evening with the arrival of the Chief Guests Nattu, Gayathri and little angel Diya. Diya cut the ribbon in style and the media was seen all over the place. All franchises and team owners attended the closing ceremony in person. Especially Owner of "Zorits", Ritvik and Owner of "Zohan Indi" Zohan were quiet excited about the finales.
The crucial toss followed, which was won by Strikers. Strikers chose to strike without any hesitation. There were lot of talks about the rivalry and mind games between Zorits and Strikers since last couple of days. The same was reflected in yesterday's finals as well. There were many ups and downs during the entire match and Zorits were leading with huge margin since begining. Strikers fought hard and came from behind in no time.
Due to public demand CPL Commissioner Nitin Asati Aka Mr. Modi called up strategic timeout. The players took their time off and enjoyed delicious Pizzas, Beverages (Only Tea, Pepsi and Sprite) and refreshments.
However, after the timeout as was seen during many previous CPL matches, Strikers lost the control over the match and Zorits closed the same in no time thereby claiming the CPL championship. Many handshakes happened thereafter and everyone enjoyed this thrilling contest.
During the post match press conference, CPL Commissioner, Nitin Asati Aka Mr. Modi gave an inspiring speech mentioning 10 times that CPL is clean and non-scripted. There are rumors in media that the CPL High Command Body would study the entire CPL event and would decide over Mr. Modi's future in next few weeks.
Honorable chief guests Diya, Ritvik and Zohan cut the "Carrom Shaped Cake" specially prepared for this occasion. This was followed by an Award ceremony wherein "Reward Certificates" and “Medals from Dubai” were presented by franchisees to all the participants of the 7 teams. Little Diya was so excited about the CPL concept that she announced the launch of her new Team for the next CPL season. The name of the new team would be declared soon.
It was great experience being part of such fun filled live event. On behalf of "TimePass" news, we would like to thank you all for your support and cooperation to make CPL Season 1 a huge success. Due to the match-fixing controversy there were many anxious moments. However, thanks to the audience who stood by us in thick and thins.
Hopefully, we'll be back with CPL season 2 soon. Till then good bye and good luck!

Road To Semis

Strikers
Strikers have won their all three league matches and are clear table toppers for Group A with 6 points. Both Soumya and Kamlesh have shown great consistency and focus on the game so far.
In their first league match against "Fenny Tadi", they simply outplayed their opponents and won the match by 2-1. In their next match against the toughest opponents "Zorits", they kept their cool under pressure and won that encounter with the score of 2-1. Their third match against "Serial Killars" was a thriller, which lasted for more than 40 minutes. Serial Killars were simply terrific on that day. However, it was Strikers who had the final laugh, as they managed to seal the victory with 2-1 again.
Strikers would meet "Zohan Indi", the most controversial opponents in the Semis. Only thing, Strikers couldn't manage to do well so far is call at the Toss, as they have lost all 3 tosses so far. And if they get that right, we may see the Strikers strike heavily in Semis.
TwiKings
Twi Kings have Gopi and Vidula, a great combination that is surging forward in spite of all odds. They are famous for holding their nerves in crunch games. They have dominated Group B by winning both their encounters and are sitting at the top of the table with 4 points.
In their first match against Spiders they started slowly but finally secured a convincing victory with 2-1 score. Their next match against "Zohan Indi" was bit tough, considering the fact that "Zohan Indi" tried their level best to distract their game play. Bribes of Parathas, Panner offered by "Zohan Indi" player, Renu was the most controversial news. However, Renu and Nitin refused to talk to our reportes on the camera about this. Finally the TwiKings were thru due to suicidal shot by Nitin at the end.
Patience and steady gameplay are strength of the "TwiKings". They would meet "Zorits" in the Semis who are known for similar strengths. It would be surely clash of the titans and a mouth-watering contest to watch.
Zorits
Zorits have uncle and Saurabh as their warriors and are improving day by day. Their strength is the fantastic tuning between both Saurabh and Uncle. They ended up second on the point’s table of Group A with 6 points
In their first match against "Serial Killars" they simply outclassed their opponents and won by huge margin of 3-0. There were certain questions raised in the media about bribery and match fixing after dismal display by "Serial Killars". But it was sheer performance of "Zorits" which saw them thru. Their next encounter against "Fenny Tadi" was one of the toughest matches so far in the CPL. Tony; the Star Player of "Fenny Tadi" was injured and was struggling. Zorits took this advantage and sealed their Semi's Birth in this thriller with 2-1 score. Zorits then clashed with mighty "Strikers" in their next match and went down struggling with 1-2. In spite of their defeat against "Strikers" they won the hearts of the audience with fine display.
Zorits would meet "TwiKings" in the Semis and if they continue the way they are going now, they would be very well the contenders for CPL.
Zohan Indi
"Zohan Indi" is the most controversial team in this CPL season, who likes to distract their opponents and cash on the advantage. This duo is comprised on Nitin and Renu. No one thought that they would even reach Semis when CPL began. But after beating Spiders in a thriller they managed to seal their place in Semis with 3 Points from Group B
Nitin has quoted that "Zohan Indi is the only team who can win the CPL. Bolnese Bahut kuchh hota hain". Kamlesh from "Strikers" has responded saying "Bolne se kuchh nahi hota, karnese Hota hai". Well we need to wait and watch as "Zohan Indi" takes on "Strikers" in the Semis
