BREAKING NEWS

Kochi IPL team is now IndiCommando

Quote:

The Kochi IPL franchise named its team 'Indi Commandos' on Wednesday in an official announcement on their Facebook page.
"We hereby announce the official name for your beloved Kochi IPL team!" read the post announcing the name on Facebook.

"We are now 'INDI COMMANDOS'!!! Check our team logo!" it said. The Kochi franchise is the last of the IPL teams to get a name.
The team also posted their reasoning behind naming of the team. "The 'INDI' stands for an independent Indian cricket team that will go ahead to win a billion hearts. 'COMMANDOS' stands for an elite fighting squad, renown for attacking with speed, stealth and deadly power."

What a name? I feel tigers are better than this name......

mohammedirshad06 · February 16th, 2011, 01:46 PM

I believe, the team anthem of this crap would be Silsila hai Silsila, Silsila hai Silsila.... And surely they can call Lt.Col Mohanlal to be Commander-in-Chief of this Commando force. Let the promo be directed by Major Ravi......

I am sure, Mrs. Pushkar will now think of divorcing Mr.Tharoor for trying to put her into this Commando Crap.....

Really a shame for Kerala as whole!!!

Helllllllllll

Stupid name

. atleast they could have used the name Kerala somewhere.

What i feel is like they choose name for some flexibility, if they want to move their home location to some other place like Ahmadabad, the team name won't be an issue, other wise why they used Indi (India) instead of Kerala. Hope they wont do sooo...

See the quality of the logo, even a school going kid can design a better logo than this. A Big thumps down

scorpiogenius · February 16th, 2011, 02:39 PM

Can't believe this is serious. This is what they've come up after months and months and months of brain-storming. And an apt logo to go with it, looked like Mortein Mosquito Killer brand logo with that thunder and lightening striking all over the place. Surely must be rhetoric.

The only positive out of this is that someone like Mahela is the captain. Now make Ganguly as Advisor and Gavaskar as batting coach, poorthi aavum...

Well, things like village idiot, scarecrow, bheeru vesham etc do have their own utility in their domains.

First and Third logos looks better.

Some one shared this one in facebook. No offence meant. And there is nothing more offensive than this name itself.

simpliCITY · February 16th, 2011, 05:17 PM

STUPID NAME STUPID LOGO

Very true... There is no need to say NO Offence. Its an offence from IPL Team owners side, to put Kerala and its aspirations totally down..... Down Down IPL Kochi

Aslesh · February 16th, 2011, 05:32 PM

Some one please shift this team to Ahmedabad.

Hmm.. So now the promoters themselves have asked for a shift to Ahmedabad..I think the naming of the team is done cleverly so that they can shift it.

induzcreed · February 17th, 2011, 09:21 AM

INDI COMMANDOS, Kerala, Kochi, Indore ....assorted locations

A Big Wow...can't be more diplomatic than this name...smart thinking !

Indi -> independance or india >>if that means freedom to play any where in India that sounds logical in conveying a message.

Who is bothered?

If they want to play here they are most welcome...else they can leave immediately. What is the hullabaloo? Kochi has been a trendsetter host and always extended its support by all means whether it is improving Kaloor stadium with all world class facilities or pumping lot of money in whatever allied infrastructure.
How many stadiums in India can accommodate 65-75K people? Everyone knows too many vested interests threading all kinds of shams and furore to grab the team for satiating their ego. Well, Nobody here demanded them to play in Kochi. Instead, it is they have chosen Kochi. Why? because of a readily available infrastructure and amenities here. statistics and data regarding previous gate collections and revenues to take a call on investment prospects and certainly not on assumptions! if you remember, even FC kochin had played all their home matches here with packed galleries ! (Kochi was even a safer option assuming a potential investor competition to bid AMD.)
Whatever it is, everyone here welcomed an IPL team with an open heart !!!

Secondly, If KCA is finding it difficult with their stadium project. It is purely their fault. They only had chosen for trouble. Why don't they move in proper channel? We have GCDA here, Cochin Corporation, a no. of Panchayats and Muncipalities in around cochin and perhaps even GoK could have help KCA to acquire a trouble free land anywhere in Cochin !!! Instead of using such machinery KCA went out all alone betting on their filthy, stinking money. AFAIK on open market real estate deals 23 crores are peanuts and won't get a better land than this one in edakochi. So boys, it is not a loss for them. OTOH They had chosen their destiny like a loser. I still believe a lot of local authorities (barring some ministries/depts) in Ernakulam would have offered them land parcel ie, legally insulated on a free of cost offer within Cochin. Nedumbassery, Sreemoolanagarm, Kalady all offered free land in Aiport vicinity!!! They played it down. Now after creating all the mess it is mere desperation, confusion and chaos all around.

Now let them decide their fate

their own way.

Marathaman · February 17th, 2011, 10:35 AM

I don't like the logo or the name. Kochi Mosquitos is much better

I think the original name was "Kochi Commandos" which was changed at the last moment because of the stadium issues.

induzcreed · February 17th, 2011, 10:51 AM

i had more mosquito bites in Mumbai than in Cochin

nothing offense but fact. period.
