There are only 2 wicketkeepers to choose.

It's being held in South Africa right? I've picked up a crap team !

Yes as you would be aware, we do not include players for these tournament unless they make their national team, however if you are suggesting that we include the keepers, fine with me.

Yes it is and I have updated that in the thread now. Thanks.

 

[ZexyZahid]

Is an IPL team still bounded by a maximum number of foreign players? If yes, what's the amount limitation of the players? Four or five players?

 

[aussie1st]

Matthew Wade is a keeper so I've changed him to that so we have 3 keepers.

I would presume it is the same number that they have in the IPL

 

[Abhas]

The fact that it's being held in SA makes me not want to include any Indian players.

 

[Akash00]

Ravichandran Ashwin is an all-rounder. I have included him as an bowling All-rounder.

Seeing his average is just around 5 in T20s and if you are not happy: I am telling you he is more of a batting all-rounder in Tamil Nadu squad rather than a bowling all-rounder (Though he is bowling AR for CSK).

Is Kieran Noema-Barnett not in the drop-down list or am I blind?

 

[Abhas]

He wouldn't be. We don't include lesser known players, generally those who havn't played any internationals for such tournaments.

 

[Akash00]

My team's current composition:

Warriors - 1
Central Stags - 0
Wayamba - 2
Victoria - 2
Chennai Super Kings - 6

Being a CSK fan, I have selected a team based on them but I might bring in some Stags or some Warriors when Cricinfo gives us a clear picture of this group.

Here we go again, I anticipated that many of you guys would come up with these AR issues! The truth is there is nothing in his "profile" after 28 T20 to suggest he is an AR however you feel he is, mate am not going to waste valuable energy on this with you, AR he is then. And please let us keep this as it should be, you don't go around making changes to the games just because you like a player! For all I know you could be into some spot-fixing.

Can I have something for Perera as an batting all-rounder?

 

[Chewie]

He wouldn't be. We don't include lesser known players, generally those who havn't played any internationals for such tournaments.

Normally players with some international recognition are included though aren't they? He was in the preliminary squad for the T20 world cup
