The 2009 Indian Premier League season, abbreviated as IPL 2 or the 2009 IPL, will be the second season of the Indian Premier League, established by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) in 2007. The tournament will be hosted by South Africa and is scheduled between April 18 and May 24 2009.[2] IPL 2 is expected to be the second biggest cricket tournament in the world, after the Cricket World Cup,[3] and will have an estimated television audience of more than 200 million people in India alone.[4]

Concerns were raised in India that the tournament was the prime target of Islamic terrorists.[5] Because the second season of the IPL coincided with multi-phase 2009 Indian general elections, India's ruling United Progressive Alliance (UPA) refused to commit security by Indian paramilitary forces. As a result, the BCCI decided to host the second season of the league outside India.[6] On March 24, 2009, the BCCI officially announced that the second season of the IPL will be held in South Africa.[7]

Though India will not host the second season, the format of the tournament will remain unchanged from the 2008 season format.[8] According to Lalit Modi, chairperson of IPL, all the 59 matches of the second season will take place per schedule and an IPL official said that England and South Africa were initially being considered the front-runners to host the league.[9][10] South Africa was chosen as the venue primarily due to concerns over England's weather.[11]

Relocating the tournament will pose extreme logistical challenges for the BCCI since more than 10,000 cricketers and other staff members will be flown from India to South Africa within a span of a few weeks.[12] The IPL is expected to inject approximately US$100 million into South Africa's local economy.[13] In addition, the BCCI signed a Rs. 8,200 crores contract with Multi Screen Media to broadcast matches live from South Africa to India.[14]

Changes

Some of the rules were changed for the 2009 edition of the IPL. The number of international players allowed in any one squad was increased from 8 to 10 although the number allowed in any playing 11 remains at 4.[15] The players purchase cap was increased from 5 to 7 million. The BCCI also negotiated with the ECB to allow English cricketers to participate in the 2009 edition of the IPL. English players will be allowed to play for 21 days in between their tour to West Indies and the subsequent return tour.[16]

Pre-season trades and signings

Trade window

Teams were reluctant to trade initially due to the troubled economic times and the general desire to concentrate on building a well-rounded team as opposed to making profits out of trades.[17] Kolkata were initially inclined to present Pakistani express bowler Shoaib Akhtar for trade but later withdrew from a deal.[18][failed verification]

Signings

Delhi Daredevils scouts prompted management to sign David Warner early in the off-season

With most international players (barring members of the England squad and Indian Cricket League players) signing up for the first season on multi-season contracts, the emphasis for off-season signings for 2009 were possible up-and-coming young players from international domestic circuits. Some teams, including the Delhi Daredevils sent scouts to domestic and 'emerging player' matches held in Australia to sign up players.[19]

Suggestions of a draft for young Indian players were not considered this season, although the Kolkata Knight Riders have formed a Talent Research Development Wing (TRDW) to spot young talent and have begun training young Indian prospects for future Kolkata duty.[18][failed verification]

Pre-auction signings

Post-auction signings
Any 'unsold' players as well as players sought after as replacements for Pakistani players who would be unable to play for their IPL team in 2009 can be signed on after the auction. These include:

Re-signings

IPL Replacement Players, filling in for players away on national duty, and some under-19 players, were recruited with a one-year contract and hence their franchises had the choice to resign them or release them as free agents.

Retirements

  • Shaun Pollock opted not to return to the Mumbai Indians. Pollock retired from international cricket in 2008 prior to the first IPL, though he is going to be their bowling coach this season.
  • Darren Lehmann retired from The Rajasthan camp and is currently coaching Deccan Chargers.
  • Stephen Fleming retired as a player and is coaching the Chennai Super Kings team.

Withdrawals Other players opted to withdraw from this particular season from the IPL, but have not ruled out returning in the future. In most cases, the reason for withdrawal was that the players wanted a break from the hectic international schedule. There have also been withdrawals due to injury and also Pakistanis who have had their contracts terminated or suspended due to tensions between India amd Pakistan since the Mumbai Terrorist Attacks. Most withdrawals were Australian international players, for whom the IPL would be the only break between a series against Pakistan and the upcoming long tour of England which would include The Ashes series. Withdrawals included:

The player auction was held on 6 February 2009 in Goa. There was a two-million dollar cap for teams buying at the auction. The following acquisitions were made: [20]

Paul Collingwood Delhi Daredevils 275,000

Build-up

Kevin Pietersen was signed for a record 1.55 million USD by Bangalore Royal Challengers and made captain of the team

The media build-up to the second season of the IPL was largely centred around security concerns, but another focus was Kolkata Knight Riders' coach John Buchanan's radical four-captain plan, which was created to utilize the knowledge of Sourav Ganguly, Chris Gayle, Brendon McCullum and Brad Hodge together as captains. The plan met its fair share of criticism and approval, with critics claiming the plan would lead to too much conflict of opinion on the field while supporters claimed that Twenty20 is suited to such radical ideas.

Much of the other hype around the IPL was the impact of the new-look Bangalore Royal Challengers with their new captain Kevin Pietersen. Bangalore owner Vijay Mallya, disappointed with the team's 7th place performance last season and its categorization as a test team, sought radical changes and signed Pietersen for a record 1.55 million USD contract before making him captain of the side (replacing Rahul Dravid who captained last season as the icon player of the Royal Challenegers). The Challengers also acquired hard-hitting batsmen Robin Uthappa and Jesse Ryder.

Some of the other topics of discussion were the potential benefit teams with a large number of South African players, like the Challengers, could gain from local knowledge of the conditions. There was also some concern about how teams like Kings XI Punjab could deal with the mass exodus of some of its core unit during the series due to international duty and how teams would deal with the loss of Pakistani players who in some cases (eg. Sohail Tanvir with the Rajasthan Royals) played a large part in their teams' fortunes last season.

Warm-up games

The match between Cape Cobras and Rajasthan Royals was billed as the Clash of the Champions due to both teams being champions of their country's Twenty20 leagues. However, as an IPL warmup, both teams fielded understrength teams in order to try out new blood, with only 4 of Rajasthan's 2008 title-winning team playing the warm-up. Nashua Cape Cobras were the victors.
