*Official* Indian Premier League 2010

[bryce]

Wow Deccan have saved alot of money, lol.
Gul/Aamer/Roach to be now targeted by them I would guess

 

[morgieb]

Kaif unsold.

 

[morgieb]

Roach in a bidding war between Deccan & Chennai. New Ishant Sharma? (i.e. a good bowler who suddenly attracts IPL interest because he sent an awesome spell to Ricky Ponting).

 

[morgieb]

Punjab enter the race now! Everyone's laughing at Deccan.

 

[morgieb]

Barath's apparently gone to Punjab, so they're out of the Roach race.

 

[morgieb]

Alas Deccan get someone!

 

[Sir Alex]

Yeah agree, seeing as they play Agarkar lol

Or worse Moises Henriques as a pacer.

 

[morgieb]

Eoin Morgan wanted by Chennai and Bangalore.

 

[morgieb]

Eoin Morgan goes to Bangalore.

 

[chaminda_00]

FFS we are not going to sign anyone. Chennai better sign Ameer or I'm going to go crazy. Lost Bond and now Roach. Go the max you soft ****s.

 

[Sir Alex]

Eoin Morgan goes to Bangalore.

It is a fantastic bid at 220,000.

Does Chennai really need foreign players? I thought they had enough guys in Hussey, Fred, Haydos and Murali. All these players are more or less certainties for all the matches. So a 5th foreign guy won't make much of sense for a no holds barred bidding.

Still don't understand the high bidding on Parnell. Trying to get the support of the South Africans from last year's IPL?

Injuries, form and old ****s. You need options incase Plan A goes soft. Ntini not the player he once was. Thurshara, Oram are coming back from injuries. Flintoff out. Morkel and Murali are out of form. We need another fast bowling option.

 

[Edged&Taken]

Eoin Morgan sold to Royal Challengers Bangalore for $ 220,000 dollars

West Indian Kemar Roach sold to Deccan Charges for $ 720,000

Bond sold to Kolkata Knight Riders for $750,000.

Tie breaker for Shane Bond priced at $ 750,000 between Deccan Chargers and Kolkata Knight Riders

Mohammed Kaif who started at a base price of $ 100,000 dollars was not sold

Wayne Parnell was sold to Delhi Daredevils for $ 610,000.

They need a quality bowler... their bowling is not very good. They had Balaji opening last season.

 

[Edged&Taken]

no buyers for Afridi, Haddin and Swann

 

[four_or_six]

Seems that definitely the best scenario for the bidding is to wait until a couple of other teams max out and then you can pick up 2/3 decent players for your $750000. It's not as if there's a shortage of good players.

 

[Sir Alex]

From Cricinfo:

Modi is telling the press that the tie-breaker sums will not be disclosed. Only he and the winning franchisee is privy to it.

That is dire. How come then the other franchise make sure it was not a case of in your face bribery? Atleast the competing franchise should also know the winning bid and "ensure" that amount was actually paid.

 

[Sir Alex]

Balaji is quite underrated. He picked 13 wickets last IPL at 24 a piece which while not great is not terrible either.
