[Spikey]

[kingpin]

Hack players in teams not taking hack players shocker.

 

[morgieb]

Why are sooo many players being unsold? They should just do write-in's out of players who nominated imo.

 

[Spikey]

I can't believe Muthumudalige Pushpakumara didn't get picked up. the name alone is worth the 50K

 

[Arjun]

Stuart Clark should be bought by some team...

 

[M0rphin3]

Wtf Stuey is gold u punks.

 

[Spikey]

that was a pretty rough 17 minutes.

 

[kingpin]

Today's auction is ssoooooooooo boring

 

[Shri]

Today's auction is ssoooooooooo boring

Yeah. Waiting just to see what happens to Roussow now.

 

[MW1304]

Why are their so many people being auctioned? No one was going to buy them.

 

[Migara]

Randiv the only spinner bidded on in this set, itstl.

Dhoni will have a tough choice between Ashwin and Randiv. Very similar bowlers, very similar batsmen. Only difference may be Randiv's fielding.

 

[Spark]

We've seen some strange spambots recently, but this by far the best

 

[Arjun]

No bids for Darren Stevens or Yusuf Abdulla either. Strange. These are bargain T20 players.

But Ashwin's Indian and they need to fill the quota, so I can't see Randiv getting a game.

 

[Migara]

I can't believe Muthumudalige Pushpakumara didn't get picked up. the name alone is worth the 50K

Ha ha! That is much better than Vaas' or Herath's full name. BTW, Pushpakumara is rank ****. No one will want to bid him. Somebody like Jeewan Mendis, Senanayake or LJP Gunarathne would have had abetter bet because these are spin bowlers who use long handle very effectively.

But Ashwin's Indian and they need to fill the quota, so I can't see Randiv getting a game.

Murali and Ashwin played in the same team. We may see a repeat. Since these two are very similar bowlers, Randiv may have to sit out unlike Murali who was different to Ashwin.

Csk get George Bailey back! Retaining as many as possible from the old squad. Way to go.

 

[Nate]

I know he played for them last series, but Bailey being retained by Chennai is ITSTL. Not in great form.

I don't care if we lose, good to have some continuity. Wouldn't have cared about csk or IPL if we had got a completely new squad.
