http://www.espncricinfo.com/indian-prem ... ect=968923First match starts on April 9th between the Mumbai Indians and the Rising Pune Supergiants, so teams must be in by 1930 local time, 1400 GMT, 1500 BST.
given that this is Sussexpob's first FL, it would be nice if everyone could submit their teams in plenty of time
Ian is the defending champion, so good luck to everyone, and may the best pob win
