Cheerleader who exposed 'ugly' truth about IPL

New Delhi: In the summers of 2011 when cricketing fever was at its peak in the Indian subcontinent, BCCI's million dollar baby, Indian Premier League was at its climax with teams fighting to clinch berth in the grand finale, a revelation by a cheerleader exposed the 'ugly' side of the IPL.

Gabriella Pasqualotto, a cheerleader with the Mumbai Indians team and the writer of the 'The Secret Diary of an IPL Cheerleader,' a blog for the Alternative Cricket Almanack revealed her experiences in India and named some of cricket's party-loving and flirtatious characters.

Following her revelations, Pasqualotto was sacked and asked to leave the country. But her 'saucy' blog created a storm in the cricket world and Indian political circles.

In the blog, Gabriella wrote, "Before departing for India, I had friends and family passing on travel tips, advice and personal experiences. Some of it good, and some of it worrying. As this was my first trip overseas, I needed to take it all in. But with any challenge in life, I like to have an open heart, clear head and positive attitude. This was not just a holiday abroad, this was a job and nobody could prepare me to become a cricket-loving, cheerleading, IPL girl but me."

"Already three weeks have passed and in that time I cannot believe how a group of normal girls can become instant celebrities! Each team of ten girls has a manager and we all receive strict instructions from them about safety, behaviour and reputation, as it seems girls from previous years did not heed the rule book!

For example, if people ask why we are in their country, we have to say that we are friends on holiday."

About Indian fans: "The majority of Indians are cricket crazy, glued to their televisions, reading the papers, supporting their teams. So as the tournament kicked off, it became pretty obvious we were not telling the truth!"

Flirty Graeme Smith: 'Ol Graeme Smith will flirt with anything while his girlfriend lurks behind him. The Aussies are fun but naughty, such as Aiden Blizzard and Dan Christian. By the end of a crazy evening, a certain someone had played kissing catchers with three girls known to me only, although he has his own girlfriend back home. He cooed to each girl, "Come home with me, I just want to cuddle!'"

"To the citizens, we are practically like walking po*n! All eyes are on you all the time; it is complete voyeurism. The women double take, see you and then pretend you do not exist. The men see your face, then your boobs, your butt, and then your boobs again! As we walk, all you hear is "IPL, IPL!" with a little head jingle!"

About Sachin, Dhoni and Rohit Sharma: "The few Indian players we have met, such as MS Dhoni and Rohit Sharma have been very polite and keep to themselves in the dark corners. Hotshots like Tendulkar with families at home are never present. The likes of Jonty Rhodes and Albie Morkel are notorious for having a good time with friends!"

"On our days off, we are free to explore and take in what India has to offer but its not always easy. You can just imagine, a group of fit, easy on the eye, western ladies cruising the congested busy streets…"

"To the citizens, we are practically like walking po*n! All eyes are on you all the time; it is complete voyeurism. The women double take, see you and then pretend you do not exist. The men see your face, then your boobs, your butt, and then your boobs again! As we walk, all you hear is "IPL, IPL!" with a little head jingle!"

Cricketers are the most loose: Oh, please! I have come to realise that cricketers are the most loose and mischievious sportsmen I have come across. Makes me wonder if I should worry about them more then the commoners on the street! I still have a long while here, so I shall keep my tip list in mind."

The citizens thinking they're walking po*n is disgusting! And the cricketers flirting behind their SO's back, all this is so sick! It reveals more about the mentality of these pathetic people than the IPL itself. It's so sad that people like these exist, they can't respect anyone. They disgust me to no end. 🤢
