West Indies batting great Brian Lara leads the star parade at a rebel Twenty20 League that kicks off Friday in India after stirring up a storm with officialdom. The inaugural Indian Cricket League (ICL), fronted by India's own cricketing legend Kapil Dev, will be played at Panchkula, an industrial town on the outskirts of the northern Indian city of Chandigarh.
The BCCI, which refused to provide any of its stadiums for the tournament, has also been accused of sabotage and trying to lure ICL's star players. All the matches of the six-team competition, which will have Tony Greig and Dean Jones among commentators, would be played at the Tau Devi Lal Stadium with the finale scheduled for December 16.
