Stars don't favour SRK and Sourav

First Sourav Ganguly was dethroned from captaincy of Knight Riders, then there was the rumour that the team will have four rotating captains, and then reportedly there was a fallout between the owner Shah Rukh Khan, coach John Buchanan and Sourav. Now the team is at the lowest point tally in the IPL score sheet.

Some well-known astrologers provided us their 'starry explanations' for the above...

Explains Ajai Rai Madan, "Sourav Ganguly has a very strong Sun in his birth chart. He is born to lead independently.

What's hampering the situation is that there are two other powerful decision makers, SRK and John, who want to make decisions that may not be in favour of Sourav. It's like the case of two or more swords in one sheath. Moreover, Shah Rukh Khan has entered such a phase in life where his career has come to a plateau. He can only go down from here. And that's what you are witnessing before your eyes."

According to numerologist Bhavikk Sangghvi, there's a logic why it's difficult for SRK and Sourav to get along for long. "Shahrukh is born on a day which is number 2 and Sourav is number 8. Two is moon and eight is Saturn making them arch rivals in numerology. On top of this, Shahrukh is in his 44th year which adds to eight again making it unfavourable for him. For Sourav, the year 2009 is unfavourable as it adds up to two. So there is quite a bit of contrasting situations for both at the moment," he says.

Other factors, according to Sangghvi, could be the black colour costume which is the colour of Saturn and is not good for SRK. Besides that, the team changed its name to only Knight Riders which is also not very lucky.

Bejan Daruwalla is of the opinion, "Jupiter, the planet of luck, has such force that when it works it can make the cricket ball fall between three fielders and no one can catch it. But when it doesn't work, then everything that can possibly go wrong will go wrong. For both SRK and Sourav, the planet will not favour them this year."
