New Zealand Premier League XIII

Talk about big match players. Ponting is sheer class!
Good knocks from Smith (reminded me of the England - SA match in CT) and Sarwan

Lost interest in the league ATM as I am not part of the later stages :p
Good Luck to All!

Btw I hope we can have vCash involved in trading as I am desperate to improve next Season. My Next target is the Volts former captain Brendon McCullum :D

Fair enough, I'd share the same view as you if I was participating.

Btw I hope we can have vCash involved in trading as I am desperate to improve next Season. My Next target is the Volts former captain Brendon McCullum :D

I'm not a big fan of having vCash involved in the trading.
It'll just make the teams unfair, if one owner decides vCash is a lot more important than having a good team.

If you want a certain player, you just got to offer up the right trade.
E.g. I'm guessing that you want both McCullum and Bond, which fairly enough probably isn't going to happen.

Man of the match: Graeme Smith
 
Btw I hope we can have vCash involved in trading as I am desperate to improve next Season. My Next target is the Volts former captain Brendon McCullum

i wouldnt mind trading him for some vcash and ab devillers (i would need another keeper.)

(unless we dont have the same team and all the players are put up for trade)

* Your squad size will get increased to 18 players.
* A few of your players will leave your team, if they haven't received enough game time during season two.
* You'll then have a chance to release any amount of your players, or you may choose to keep all of them.
* After that there will be a small draft, filling all the remaining places in the teams.
* That will be followed by a transfer window, that I'm still undecided if I'll allow vCash or not.
 
Probably except for Ross Taylor, Mike Hussey and Graeme Smith but I would trade Strauss for Smith though.

I only have 3.6M so it might be a bit hard to buy everyone there. Will be looking to buy de Villiers, McCullum and Steyn at least to go with Hauritz and Mills.

Yeah, that's why I don't really want people making vCash trades, as some will end up with heaps of world class players, while others will end up with none.

I'm contemplating allowing people to make one or two vCash trades, but I'll need to speak with some V.I.P's first... :sarcasm
