Juan 'Rusty' Theron is cooling his heels since pace ace Brett Lee has joined the Kings XI Punjab squad.
Juan 'Rusty' Theron is cooling his heels since pace ace Brett Lee has joined the Kings XI Punjab squad. But the South African fast bowler doesn't seem to be complaining. On the eve of the match against Mumbai Indians, Rusty was the envy of everyone at the team hotel lobby where he was seen in the company of five cheer girls.

Rusty may be out of favour now, but was the star of Kings XI team's only victory in the first six games, against Chennai Super Kings. After the game ended in a tie, Punjab had won the one-over eliminator. Interestingly, the match at Chinnaswamy Stadium was Theron's IPL debut game and he conceded just nine runs in the super over against Matthew Hayden, Albie Morkel and Suresh Raina. Theron was named the man of the match and that could be the reason why he is the ladies' favourite.
Taking cue from his players, coach Tom Moody also let loose with a rhythmic movement when they played 'Uff teri ada'.
