Awesome Asuras, AA owned by Shukracharya & captained by Vidyunmali
- Vidyunmali, Vritra, Atri, Chakri, Nagraj/Vasuki, Maya Danav, Shatabhish, Chandal, Sanatkumar, Kumbhakarna, Jalandhar, Bhashmasura
- Manager: Menavati; Coach: Vijaya
Following the creation of Tripura Stadium, Shukracharya handed over the reins of this team to Vidyunmali, an accomplished 1 down batsman who did a fine job of neutralizing his enemy for a while. The team scored a late coup by roping in a swashbuckling Chris Gayle like batsman in Bhashmasura, as well as a Morne Morkel like bowler in Jalandhar. While Kumbhakarna has been sleep prone, on the occasions that he's awake, he's likely lend unmatched firepower in bowling, while being one of the best fielders in terms of speed.
Vasuki is in the team as a late finisher and wicket-keeper, a la Dhoni. Maya Danav, as a Sunil Narain like spin bowler, is a quality architect of previous victories, not just of this stadium. Menavati also roped in Rishi Atri to bolster the middle order batting, while Vritra and Chakri are utility all-rounders
AA is high on star power, and one of the favorites going into this contest, thanks to some great buys both during the auctions, as well as in the run up to the tournament
