Day Two
















Hi Eveyone
Great to read all of your comments! We have had another great day here in sunny Delhi. All members of the Tour are fit and well. We have made sure that "Fearless" has had enough water and Suncream has been applied throughout the day. Several sites were enjoyed this morning, including Humayun's Tomb, the Akshaydham Temple (biggest Hindhu Temple in the world), India Gate and the Parliament buildings (and grounds where we gatecrashed a local game of Cricket!) and Qutb Minor (c.1200AD) followed by lunch at Vatsal Kanoria's Uncle's farmhouse. The afternoon was spent practicing for the first big game tomorrow starting at 8.30am our time! We hear you have gone to Day light saving to avoid the rain????
Thank you Mr Ali for your concern but I have a wingman with me this evening and progress is being made!
Huge day tomorrow with our first match followed by the IPL Match in the evening. Delhi DareDevils V Kolkata Knight Riders!!!
Best wishes
Ian Hutchinson and the Team

Good luck to all tomorrow. As a start to the season it's a bit different (for the better) from the usual 10 degrees and drizzle !!

Another tremendous day. Looks like the boys are having great fun as well as seeing some fabulous sites! Even I am learning something!

Good luck to all of you tomorrow ... I'm sure you will show the other team how real cricket is played!!

All sounds so exciting - good luck in the game tomorrow - The IPL match is on ITV4 starting at 3.15pm UK time - so all you boys get yourselves on TV and maybe you too could become Bollywood stars!
Don't forget to take Fearless with you.

Some great snaps. Seems as though you’ve done so much in such little time. The coach looks very comfortable- good going with the on-board fans.

Looking forward to the match report tomorrow. Top marks to your wingman!

We watched a bit of the IPL match on tv. The atmosphere sounded electric!
Sounds like today's match was a challenge! Are you keeping the score a secret?
We have enjoyed the photos, but please could you ask James to stop hiding behind pillars?
Good luck for tomorrow's match. Its still raining in London.
Best wishes

I love the photos and cannot wait to see more! Mr Hutchison, I hope the boys are keeping on top of their washing! We watched the IPL game on TV and it looked amazing. Could you ask Paul Collingwood to bat for you at the game tomorrow.
