They added another marquee IPL name  in Rohit Sharma, besides picking up some cut-price internationals like  Clint McKay, whose slower balls mystify most batsmen, and South African  Davy Jacobs, a lethal hitter who can double up as a wicketkeeper. The  pedigree of their squad is unimpeachable, but Tendulkar has long  stressed the importance of team spirit for success - how the squad  containing Andrew Symonds and Harbhajan Singh gels will be fascinating  to see.   SquadBatsmen: Sachin Tendulkar (retained), Rohit Sharma ($2m), Aiden Blizzard ($20,000)Bowlers: Harbhajan Singh (retained), Lasith Malinga (retained), Munaf Patel ($700,000), Clint McKay ($110,000)Allrounders: Kieron Pollard (retained), Andrew Symonds ($850,000), James Franklin ($100,000), Moises Henriques ($50,000)Wicketkeeper: Davy Jacobs ($190,000)</blockquote>
