AWTA. You could still spend the same amount if you want, but you could spend it so much more wisely.
Haha, you getting a commission?
So that makes him the most expensive player in the IPL, right?
Wish. Just happy that a man has made enough money so his mum doesn't have to work again (she works in a library...). I couldn't care less about what he does in the IPL. He should treat it like Dale Steyn did. Have a few good games, demonstrate you are the best in your side but don't work too hard. There is bigger fish to fry...
Not being able to two games in a row will curb his danger...
Should make Banglore more competitive now with KP and Taylor in middle order.
Yea, agreed. I am interested to see where this leads. If this becomes a legitimate product with ever-increasing amount of money, the franchises are going to start getting antsy about stuff and maybe ask the players to 'think about' resting more during the international calendar so they are at peak performance for the IPL. It'll be sad day if that happens, but if IPL gets bigger, that's what will happen -franchises are going to demand to be the centerpiece of a player's calendar. If you're (for example) a SL player making $150,000 and someone offers you $2,000,000 a year for two months, it's hard not to take it seriously.
oops sorry KP also went for 1.55 million , equals Flintoff's price.
Nah.. he doesn't have an issue backing up T20 games, and its not like they are going to be playing virtually everyday.
So does that mean the auctions are over now?
Jeez, Delhi spending quite a lot this season.
