On excitement for HIL It is extremely high. I think the auction being as big as it was has already shown a lot about the excitement of all the players wanting to join. We are four weeks out. The excitement has simply grown, I think we cannot wait to start to get together. Playing in Rourkela is going to be amazing. The stadium that was built for the last World Cup is a piece of art.
