Jaipur team safe, holidaying in Goa

Mumbai: Shane Warne, the captain and coach of the Rajasthan Royals team must be considering himself to be lucky as none of his team-members are in Jaipur when this serial bomb-blasts has rocked the entire city and nation.

"Most of the foreign players of the Rajasthan team have left for their homes and Shane Warne with his other few team-mates (South Africa's Greame Smith and Shane Watson) are holidaying in Goa with me", the team manager said from Goa. "Shane Warne is fine and not to worry about any of the players", he further added.

Rajasthan is playing their next match at Jaipur against Bangalore on 17th of this month. "It is too early to say whether the match would now be played at Sawai Mansingh Stadium", Shamesher Singh said.

"It is a very unfortunate thing to have happened to a peaceful city like Jaipur. Big people like chief minister, Jaipur police commissioner and Lalit Modi, the IPL chairman etc. will take the final call on shifting of the match," he added.
