The premier sports news portal in India is Sports Journalism, which is run by Prachinews. This news portal is not only about the sports world; it covers everything from politics to films, arts, education, business to sports and even news on festivals. Today, India is one of the fastest growing consumer market for sports clothes and accessories. In fact, according to a recent survey, almost seventy percent of people in India have at least one sports store in their homes. The sports boom has given rise to huge sports brands in India like Reebok, Adidas, Nike, Vengardi and Gatorade.

Recently, Reebok launched their first retail shop in the city of Mumbai in India’s biggest city, Mumbai. The shop has since opened up several other stores in the major cities of Goa, Delhi and Pune. Earlier this brand was known mainly for its sports footwear, but now with the growth of its brand value and its popularity, it has expanded its range to include accessories like sports bags, sports caps, shorts and caps. Reebok has been a popular choice of both ardent sports lovers and common man. In addition to these, Reebok has also launched their very own range of fitness equipment and sports wear in India exclusively for the masses.

The most watched tournament in the country is the IPL. Millions of sports enthusiasts from across the world watch the IPL tournament to get an insight into the popular game of IPL cricket. Most of the T20 players are nurtured in the state of Tamilnadu. Chennai Super Kings has been an integral part of the IPL franchise, winning the league four out of the last five seasons.

Two other IPL teams making their presence felt in the IPL this season are Delhi Daredevils and Kerala Shenhua. Both these teams are considered top side in their respective states and hope to win the trophy this season. Last year’s IPL champions ACB were also victorious in the IPL against the defending champions RCF. West Indies was the only tournament that ACB did not win when they were in the IPL. They lost to the defending champions Samsung Galaxy in the final.

IPL 13 was marred by one controversy after another with the IPL franchises from both Delhi and Chennai refusing to leave their respective grounds during the course of the tournament. The Delhi IPL team left for Dubai during the middle of the IPL tournament citing safety concerns. Chennai IPL team later returned to their home stadium, citing security issues. Mention was made by the premier league cricketers of India against these two cities, and they called the matter a major disappointment.

Mention was also made by the IPL commissioner regarding the same issue. He claimed that the players and officials from both the teams were moved out of the state because of safety reasons. In fact Delhi was the host city for IPL 13. It is understood now that most of the Mumbaikars were against this move by the IPL and there are many instances where the crowd rioted outside the stadiums when the Delhi teams were expected to leave. The prime concern for the Delhi IPL team and its supporters is that all the revenue earned will go to the state and not to the Mumbai IPL franchise.

Former IPL champion and IPL franchise holder suresh raina said that while he was happy about the IPL coming to his home country of India, he was not surprised at the way IPL franchise owners have handled the IPL. He even had a list of seven players who will represent the IPL in next year’s season. And then he jokingly said that if IPL franchise owners are so desperate to get fans, they would be willing to pay whatever amount it takes to get fresh raina as their marquee player.
