IPL new frontier in cricket: Symonds

Hyderabad: After bagging a fat pay check, Australian all-rounder Andrew Symonds wants to help Deccan Chargers of Hyderabad win the title in the inaugural Indian Premier League (IPL) starting Friday.

"I must thank the owners for bidding for me in such a big way. It came as a surprise. But now my ambition is to win the tournament. Money is definitely a factor. I think IPL is a new frontier in cricket," he said.


On the possible clash between international assignments and IPL, Symonds said: "This is something that should never happen. I think the cricket boards and the ICC should see to it that there is a window for IPL."

He also said that since Twenty20 is a very fast format, there would be no place for sledging.
