Followers of the Indian Premier League would no doubt be familiar with the Fake IPL Player blog and its quirky take on the league.

Followers of the Indian Premier League would no doubt be familiar with the Fake IPL Player blog and its quirky take on the league.

For over a month the blog has entertained readers through its writing but for the first time yesterday, a video appeared on the blog and signalled the end of the blog.

In the video, a silhouetted figure describes himself as an insider in the world of IPL.

"Behind all the grease paint, I'm just another faceless guy," the shadowy figure says. He also mentions that he grew up in Delhi, where he learnt his art.

He goes on to add that he grew up on cricket and also mentions how he skipped an IIM interview to watch a Test match at the Kotla.

The blogger reveals that he has interacted with journalists, cricketers, team owners and Bollywood stars.

The video drags on about how he will reveal his identity in a book someday but never comes close to giving the readers and viewers any hint about his identity. Just like the blog's title, it's a fake revelation.
