With Lee injured our bowling attack looks really weak.

 

[Harrypotter_fan]

This team will be competing with KKR for the second last spot.

 

[ZexyZahid]

This team should perform less then previous year, but I am expecting a performance from Katich and Yuvraj Singh.

 

[mattfb]

Watch out for Burt Cockely. I'm really surprised he has an IPL cotnract, but hes a rising star for NSW.

 

[King Pietersen]

No, watch out for Ravi Bopara. Class young batsman, bowls some handy medium pace, and can hit a long ball. Is apparently going to get a good few games as well, so look out for Rav, if he gets going he'll make a big score. List A double hundred to his name!

 

[mattfb]

Ravi will do better, I don't expect Cockley to set the world alight. Like I said he's only recently cemented a spot in the NSW team, and doesn't always perform consistently, but he has a lot of potential and from memory has a few 4fers. I think he can do ok and pick up a few wickets when given his chance. I was just really surprised to see that he was given an IPL contract though tbh.

 

[Leggie]

Watch out for !UV! King of Sixers! King of T20! at Durban!

 

[rocklara]

Yup our team looks a lttle bit on the weak side in the bowling dept. But if the batsmen can fire, I can see another semi finals spot. Maybe i'm a little bit over the top here, but I have faith that Shaun Marsh can rekindle the fire from the 1st season, as long as he is back to 100%. Yuvi and co. can be a handful too!

 

[naresh091]

Syl,there is no Sangakkara in that list.He is one of their best buys.

 

[SciD]

It wont be like last year. We have lost so much. :crying

 

[aussie1st]

It seems Bopara could be opening certainly could make an impact. I would be surprised if Cockley got much game time if any. But if he does get a game I will probably watch him to see his pace.

 

[mattfb]

I wonder if Pomers will get any game time. He doesn't have a great One Day record (averages 20) despite being tagged as more of a big hitter. He is impressive in the longer stuff though. His Twenty20 average is 34 at a strike rate of 144 which aint bad, but I don't recall how he did in the Big bash last year. Not sure if he will get many games.

 

[aussie1st]

I would say he will get quite a bit of game time. He was pretty good for Punjab last season in the opening role. When Marsh and Hopes comeback he will find it hard to get in.

 

[naresh091]

Pomersbach(sorry if spelling is wrong) was quite impressive last time.I saw one of his innings,where he along with Mahela took their team home.
