Potential International Trades

[DriveClub]

I'd like Yasir Shah, a good leggie in Aussie pitches would be great, can trade for Hughesy as they need an opener but hes no good against spin. Think he needs to tan himself and will be playing spin better

 

[Athlai]

Would trade Ryder for Shakib. He'd probably be Bangladesh's best seamer.

Haha yeah we'll trade Jesse "no troubles" Ryder for that darned troublemaker Shakib.

 

[sambha]

Merchant De Lange, Kyle Abbott , Wayne Parnell for Amit Mishra, Piyush Chawla, Pragyan Ojha

 

[sunilreddy]

Rohit Sharma for Morne Morkel

 

[sunilreddy]

Amit Mishra for Starc

 

[hendrix]

Doug Bracewell for Murali Vijay.

 

[hendrix]

Matt Henry for Pragjan Ojha

 

[CricAddict]

Rohit Sharma for Morne Morkel

South Africa won't take this I assume. Not sure if Rohit can bat that well on SA pitches.

 

[Daemon]

Morkel is top class and will be hugely missed. I don't think I'd trade him for anyone in the Indian team if I was from SA.

 

[morgieb]

Doug Bracewell for Murali Vijay.

India would be foolish to take that IMO. Their opening stocks aren't too flash, unless Rahul turns out to be solid.

EDIT: Plus I'm not convinced Bracewell's clearly better than their other fast bowling stocks anyway.

South Africa won't take this I assume. Not sure if Rohit can bat that well on SA pitches.

Plus where does Rohit fit in their batting lineup? He isn't better than Amla, de Villiers or du Plessis, and he probably isn't better than Duminy given he'll be playing in South Africa.

 

[morgieb]

Amit Mishra for Starc

Mishra's pretty ****ty these days at FC level, not convinced he'd be better than any of the leggies we've got.

well tbf he'll be one of the best players of spin in your country

 

[Furball]

Surely Australia would trade a bowler for a batsman anyway?

 

[Howe_zat]

Morkel is top class and will be hugely missed. I don't think I'd trade him for anyone in the Indian team if I was from SA.

If the trade counts for all formats I'd say they'd want Kohli right now. Could win them a world cup

 

[Julian87]

McKay, Boland, and Sandhu for Thirimanne and Chandimal.

 

[Maximas]

Sri Lanka really needs young batsmen now though, and with the rise of a few youngish quicks we'd definitely not go for that

 

[Daemon]

Yeah for ODIs why not. Still, Morkel's one of the best in that format as well and their backups haven't been great.

 

[theegyptian]

Michael Hogan for Craig Kieswetter.

Hogan way down the pile of Aus ODI (and test) bowlers. Didn't even play for WA this year in lo. Never getting selected for them. Would probably make England's WC squad.

Kieswetter is average but he offers an alternative for Haddin for the WC if they want. Plus England have wicketkeepers who will probably overtake Kieswetter in a year or two.

Neither team loses anything really from letting Kieswetter or Hogan go.

 

[theegyptian]

ugh I feel ill about posting that now. Kieswetter having to pull out of Big Bash and possibly further issues into the future after getting hit in the eye last season whilst batting. Needs my support rather than trading him off.

Serious eye injury could rule Somerset CCC's Craig Kieswetter out for 2015 season as he undergoes specialist treatment | Bath Chronicle
