Global Premier League X

Yeah I'm game to all those points, but for the retention of players. Would like that to be atleast 4.
 
Didn't we have pretty much a full reshuffle last season? (I can't really remember)

If we did, at least let as keep two thirds of our current squad. It normally takes a couple of seasons to build a decent squad, because you can only do so much in one season.

If we haven't had a full reshuffle in a while ignore this, but iirc we had one last season so I definitely don't think we should have one again so soon.
 
what a great final! even on a poor pitch we ended up with a real close game. swann was his awesome self as usual and along with tiwary and porterfield were the only ones who weren't affected by nerves. I'd Say that Tokyo deserved to win this season, we were leaders on the points table all the way through 9 rounds and we won the semi and now the grand final.

And on season 9 rules i have no objections to any of the rules except maybe the redraft, dont really wanna break up a winning team although i wouldn't oppose to a small re-draft.
 
Awesome presentation Dipak !! :clap

Tokyo were great in this season ,
* Congrats * :clap

We had one after season six. :)
I want to have a full re-shuffle to help suit the new grade compostion, however if 5 managers are against it, you'll be allowed to keep 7 players and a draft'll take place. :)

Tokyo Thunder v Manchester Moonbeams at Tokyo (Tokyo choose pitch)

Clashes:-
Swann - plays for Tokyo
Bopara and Hall - play for Manchester
.
 
Brilliant win first up. Swann and Steyn were yet again on the money for MM, with Nannes contributing to the wickets column too. Run chase was simple and steady despite Cook's early departure, courtesy of the middle order in KP, Trott and Sarwan.

Edit: Can I just link this match to my league's fixtures, if you don't mind?

Edit2: Just saw you'd posted the match in my thread too. :lol

As the manager of the league from which Tokyo qualified: Poor performance with the bat there. Only Bopara and Misbah made contributions and that also they batted damn slow! Ripped up by the bowlers there. Bowling was toothless only with Russell bowling well. :)
 
Some proposals for Season IX

- Only 2 Grade I players
- Full re-draft with each team retaining a maximum of three players
- Grouping the Grade III and Domestic Players i.e. you need to have a fixed no one G3 + Dom players, but you should have atleast four domestics in the squad
- For the lineups I've devised a spilt of 2 G1, 4 G2, 5 (G3 + Dom) and outta them two have to be domestic players

Thoughts??

Absolutely against this, no way am I settling for 2 grade 1s, i think if anything, we should be allowed more G2 players, so I'm against that. I'm also against such a big reshuffle, why do we need one, it wasn't that long since the last one, how do we have any chance of building our squad over numerous seasons if you keep making us redraft our teams
