@ bcvs, James Anderson and Michael Bates for Lasith Malinga and Ian Butler.

LOL,no half measures this time mate.
Jimmy Anderson isn't exactly what we are looking for and Ian Butler,who has been a part of the team since the first season isn't too keen on playing for a different franchise.

Transfer Window

* The transfer window is now open. Please make sure you read ALL the rules, and remember to confirm your trades in the social group.

* Each team will be allowed to make up to five New Zealand player trades, and up to four International player trades.

* NO vCash is to be involved. I'm able to cancel a trade, if I think there's a high chance that vCash is involved.

* You may make your trades with other owners, or you may trade in free agents.

* You may discuss trades in the thread, and via VM/PM, but not in the social group thread.

* Once you have organized a trade, both of you (or just you if it's a free agent trade) must confirm the trade in the social group thread.

* The length of the transfer window is undecided, I'll call it closed when there have been no trades for a couple of days.

Squad

Your final squad must consist of 18 players, including:

* 10 New Zealander's
* 8 International's (Maximum of two per country)
* 2 Wicket-Keeper's (At least one Full-time)

What I recommend you have in your squad is:

* Around six batsmen (A few part-time bowlers)
* Two wicket-keepers (One full-time, and one part-time, or two full-time)
* Around four all-rounders (mixture of pace and spin)
* Around six bowlers (five pace, one spin)
* Mixture of both New Zealanders and Internationals in each department

[Chewie]

Jayasuriya and Vaas are a bit past their prime I'd say... Gibbs would be a good pick but then I'd have to trade Amla or Steyn and I'd rate Amla and Gibbs about the same and Amla has the better international record. My overseas all-rounders are better than Hopes, I don't need a keeper, and my spinners are better than Harbhajan.

I think that my team will stay the same unless people have domestic trades they want, I'm not trading international players except Yusuf Pathan. Unless the offer is extra good.

 

[hedger_14]

Would you trade Steyn for any of my players, Chewie?

 

[Chewie]

Would you trade Steyn for any of my players, Chewie?

Possibly Sangakkara. But then you would need to find another wicketkeeper and I could do a free agent trade with Young. hmmmmm.
