IPL 2009 from 18 April in stead of 10

It is confirmed that Indian Premier League second season (IPL 2009) will be host in South Africa. After an official meeting with CSA and IPL commissioner they come to in a point that 59-games will be placed in South Africa. Previously CSA had to compete with UK. Now, the IPL 2009 will be held from 18 April in stead of 10 April that the date was fixed previously. The tournament had to move from India because of Indian upcoming general election that will be the same time. That is why Indian government could not able to provide more security for the celebration of IPL 2009.

 

The Mumbai attack during the England tour and the Lahore attack on Sri Lanka Cricket team worried about them for more security and this is the main cause of over security.

 

There is no doubt that India is the most important country for the business about cricket. Even most of the advertisers invests more and look opportunities if the games will hold on Indian ground or the match along with India.

 

South Africa is the most experienced country of the world to inaugurate Twenty20 formatted tournament. Even they got huge reputation organizing the Twenty20 World Cup that was held in 2007. From this view South Africa is the best place for this tournament.

 

England is going to inaugurate the Twenty20 World Cup this year. So, they are not less important than the African country. Most probably, the timing becomes the main factor for England. As, IPL is based on Indian people and they have to maintain India time and from this view if they have to follow India time then the match have to organized at 11 AM. So, it is very bad time for England people. But CSA can organize it at 12:30 PM.

IPL 2009 may be hosted in South Africa

There is rumor in all media about Indian Premier League (IPL) what will be the venues for the second season. IPL 2009 was suffering for security concern because of Indian general election. Lalit Modi, the commissioner of IPL met to the home ministry of Indian govt. more times. But they both fail to come in a row about extra security concern during the match time. So, IPL 2009 may host in out side of India but the  semi final an final will be held in Indian ground.

Cricinfo wrote

 "We are looking at their requirements to see whether we can fulfill them. As I understand, we are one of the parties that they have approached, but for now we can say that we are ready to host the IPL. However, we expect to meet the Indian officials soon to understand the situation better."

Although this is not good news for Indian but may have nothing to do extra for IPL 2009 at this moment. But other satisfaction is that CSA feels interest to host the second season of IPL. Even they have experiences how to host or tackle the problems. Most important thing is that South Africa is the fist country that organized the inaugural Twenty20 World Cup tournament in 2007.

10 important information on Tata Nano: Cheapest car booking

Most expected cheapest car from Tata Motors will be removed its rap tomorrow. During the world economic recession it is bravest steps. Just in the first week of April this year the car will be available to the Tata Motors authorized showrooms in India and the consumer can be allow car booking from the second week of April. The company declared a big loss of $54 million last years. Even it bought Jaguar and Land Rover brands from Ford Motor Co. in June. Tata Motors' People's Car is going to launch on March 23, 2009 Monday.

 

I am just giving some physical information and others because Tata Motors did not still public any technical information still now.

 

  1. Tata Motors named its People's Car Tata Nano because they use high technology and small size. It is ultra-low-cost car of the world even they use very simple technology in its website and take a short time of 1.5 month low cost, but high technology.
  2. Tata Nano car is very Stylish, comfortable to move in its passenger compartment and four passengers can seat easily and munificent leg space and head room.
  3. Its dimension is length 3.1 x height1.5 and height of 1.6 metres, with four doors with adequate ground clearance so it can naturally move on busy roads of cities as well as in rural areas.
  4. Tata Nano’s all-aluminium, multi point fuel injection petrol engine has two-cylinder, 623 cc, 33 PS and is the first two-cylinder gasoline engine that can be used in a car with single balancer shaft.
  5. Tata Motors will give away two to three cars with every 100 cars bookings that will be started from the second week of April 2009.
  6. The Nano's safety performance exceeds current regulatory requirements. With an all sheet-metal body, it has a strong passenger compartment, with safety features such as crumple zones, intrusion-resistant doors, seat belts, strong seats and anchorages, and the rear tailgate glass bonded to the body.
  7. More cars and more CO2 and it will pollute environment. But Tata Nano is conscious about environment-friendly and it has low pollution level than other car ever manufactured in India.
  8. Tata Nano was first introduced on January 10, 2008 in a local Indian fair and Mr. Tata promised to offer for the middle-class people under Rs.1,00,000.00 and Tata motors brought Nano Europa in 2009 on Geneva Motor Show. They targeted to sell 1 million cars annually.
  9. The team, as one, acknowledges the tremendous support and guidance from Ratan Tata, Ravi Kant, Prakash Telang and the senior management. Tata, they say, not only brought a sense of cohesiveness, but also provided a number of vital inputs - information, guidance, encouragement and the motivation to keep looking at innovation.
  10. I found some news about the bank higher rates. If it continues then will the users fill interest to buy?

 

Cheapest car Tata Nano formally launching on March 2009 

At last, the world cheapest car from Tata Motors ‘Tata Nano’ is going to launched officially on 23 March 2009. The car will be displayed only at Tata Motors dealerships from earlier of April 2009 and from the second week it will be opened for Bookings. It expects that the Nano will be very reasonable for the middle class people of India and it expects, the price will be 100,000 rupees (about 1,980 dollars). Although it scheduled to launch in October 2008 but some unexpected reason it was postponed.

 

Tata Nano first came to public the Indian version on January 10, 2008 in an Indian Auto show and the European version displayed in Geneva Motor Show last week. Although the Indian version of Tata Nano unveiling on 23 March 2009 but the European version will be covered off by 2011.

 

10 feet long and 5 feet wide Tata Nano has 4 doors where five passengers can easily move. 623cc two-cylinder engine with 33 horsepower has a capability to run 65 miles per hour. It has been included air bags or antilock brakes even air conditioning, a radio, or power steering but you can add it by paying extra.

 

Targeting to the middle-class people Tata Motors has brought this small car even they can buy it by taking loan from the banks too. Tata Motors has a plan to sell 1 million cars annually.

 

Tata Nano’s near competitor Maruti 800 is nearly twice in pricing but sitting capacity is larger.
