Probably one of the weakest team in IPL. Someone please tell me why Preity didn't bought any decent player when she had over 2 million budget left in the end which was the highest budget left by any team in IPL. She really thinks she can buy the whole team in just 6 million? The owners would be kicking their a** now by not retaining any player esp Yuvraj Singh.

Let's see if this bottom the groups again or it will be at 9th place. Will be interesting to watch.

Well they are paying the price for messing up in auction. Didn't retain players like Yuvraj, Irfan, Lee and Sanga.

 

[AbhishekS]

Easily the weakest side in this season of IPL.

 

[Cricketman]

Two of my favorite players - KKD and Nayar - in my least favorite team. Gonna be interesting to watch .

 

[crazyrahul]

When Yuvi got back his form, guess who was most diappointed person on earth?

PREITY ZINTA.

She could retain Yuvi easily for KXIP and now the team will have to face Yuvi's Pune Warriors in the very first match of this season.

----------

Easily the weakest side in this season of IPL.

The team which has inspiration leader and T20 specialist like Adam Gilchrist can change the game one-handedly. Don't take this team for granted. They also have Nayar, Harris, Dussey, marsh and Karthik.

Definitely not the weakest team in the tournament!
My team:

Adam Gilchrist
Shaun Marsh
Sunny Singh
Dinesh Karthik
David Hussey
Abhishek Nayar
Paras Dogra
Piyush Chawla
Praveen Kumar
Ryan Harris
Vikramjeet Malik/Any other local bowler

 

[Haarithan]

Dussey wont be available for the initial games , David Miller and Ryan Mclaren have been signed as replacements for the injured English duo of Broad and Mascarenhas . So my probable XI for the first game would be :

Adam Gilchrist +
Shaun Marsh
Abhishek Nayar (6)
Dinesh Karthik
Sunny Singh
Ryan Mclaren (5)
Paras Dogra
Piyush Chawla (4)
Praveen Kumar (1)
Ryan Harris (2)
Shalabh Srivastava (3)

Definitely looks a weak side !

 

[crazyrahul]

My probable playing XI -

Adam Gilchrist (c) (w)
Shaun Marsh
Sunny Singh
Dinesh Karthik
Siddharth Chitnis
Abhishek Nayar - 2 overs
Paras Dogra - 2 overs
Piyush Chawla - 4 overs
Ryan McLaren - 4 overs
Praveen Kumar - 4 overs
Ryan Harris - 4 overs

no punjab player this time Definitely not support for kxip, rather supporting
Pune and very much excited that first match is interesting one...

 

[Gurjot95]

I doubt anyone would now dare to say KXI are weakest. They have proved that a good team doesn't require names, it's all about talent.

Valthaty, who no one knew before IPL (not even cricinfo) is now leading runs getter has suddenly become hero.

 

[Mota Aloo]

think its a solid team, Nayar and DK are decent middle order batsmen too.

 

[AbhishekS]

Valthaty, who no one knew before IPL (not even cricinfo) is now leading runs getter has suddenly become hero.

You didn't even mention him in the squad (referring to the first post).

 

[Gurjot95]

Don't blame me, I took it from wikipedia . That's shows how much he has made impact.

 

[AbhishekS]

At least edit the post and add him up now.

Will do it when my PC comes back from repair. Currently on mobile.
