Dale Steyn believes captain Kevin Pietersen and coach Ray Jennings have leadership and management skills to take Bangalore Royal Challengers right to the top in the IPL. Pietersen's style of leading by example, he said, would have a positive effect on the team while Jennings' ability to crack the whip would help players stay focused.

The presence of four South Africans in the Bangalore squad - Jacques Kallis, Mark Boucher, van der Merwe and Steyn - was considered an advantage by outsiders and Steyn agreed. "We have been playing well and we definitely know the conditions a hell of a lot better in our own country. Even if the four international players cannot be all from South Africa in an IPL game, you are going to get a lot of advice from the local players. It can only help to get the extra bit of advice."

Last year Steyn had inadvertently summed up Bangalore's low-key performance with an unforgettable quote. "The IPL was only four overs a game and it was like a paid holiday; you only had to work hard if you felt like it, which is probably why we finished second-last." Did he still consider it a party? Steyn had a hearty laugh. He said this time the IPL was at an opportune time for players who would be preparing for the World Twenty20 in June in England.

"The IPL is a great tournament. This year it is even better because it becomes a bridge into the World Twenty20 which will start in England immediately in June. There is no better preparation than competing in the IPL, which is a Twenty20 competition."
