New Zealand Premier League XIII

[Dipak]

I can hardly believe that he has MS Dhoni in his team and is not looking to get rid of him.

 

[Ahmad Shah]

Trade with Wellington:

Kruger van Wyk for Cachopa
Fulton for Boam
Philander for Gul

 

[Sartaj]

Yeah,confirmed.

 

[Ahmad Shah]

5. AB de Villiers (wk)
6. Peter Fulton
7. Angelo Mathews ^
8. Bruce Martin ^

[CG123]

Brad Cachopa and Mitchell Starc in for James McMillan and Dinesh Chandimal.

Done trading.

James McMillan in for Wilson.

Trade with Wellington:

Kruger van Wyk for Cachopa
Fulton for Boam
Philander for Gul

All confirmed.

Even though I confirm the trade Callum, you didnt wait for my approval

Haha, sorry.

I can hardly believe that he has MS Dhoni in his team and is not looking to get rid of him.

Yeah, because he only averages 55 against the top eight teams over the last five years.

 

[BKB1991]

What Callum said.

I got Tendulkar for Pietersen and the latter isnt in great form either. Needless to say, form is temporary, class is permanent.

 

[Sartaj]

1.Chris Gayle
2.TM Dilshan
3.Graeme Smith
4.Kevin Pietersen
5.James Franklin
6.Grant Elliott *
7.Kruger van Wyk
8.Luke Woodcock
9.Kyle Mills
10.Stuart Broad
11.Hamish Bennett

Lots of batting firepower and with Smith dropping down to #3,followed by KP,it'll be very interesting to see how those two bat together.
The bowling's pretty good as well.It's a good thing that Mills and Broad know how to work in tandem from the experience of opening the bowling for Canterbury in the past.
And of course,there's James Franklin,who the entire team is built around.

All geared up for what may be the last season of the NZPL (at least for a while).

Well answered, Callum.

 

[Dipak]

I can write a book against MSD.

I am positive that Callum will be able to complete more seasons of this. Now that, there won't be a redraft for at least two seasons so Callum won't have to do the rating all over again for at least two seasons and he'll only have to make minor changes that will take please in the transfer window. Unless, he has some personal issues.

 

[CG123]

I can write a book against MSD.

It's going to be a pretty shitty book if it's all proven false by a couple of statistics.


Also Practice Round 1 line-ups in the social group please.

Yeah, surprised you never thought his averages would be infalted just because he comes down the order and gets 30* everytime. He's such a dud in test cricket. Anyways guess it's my hatred, wouldn't like to spil this thread.

Guess I shouldn't fight because I rate him quite well in the OPL and eveytime the match is simmed I am like "get out on zero, bastard"

 

[Haarithan]

VCtheSlogger to confirm:

Andre Adams and Stephen Murdoch in for Michael Bates and Colin Munro.

VC, you've got Andre Adams in your playing XI for the warmup game (as submitted by RPHKR). Don't forget to edit your lineup.
