IPL Players retention for season 7

[AbhishekS]

I don't think Delhi is going to buy Sehwag back in the auction.

I don't think so. I think Delhi would be quite interested in getting Sehwag back using the RTM card. Majority of their fan base is because of Sehwag, and seeing so many negative posts on their Facebook and Twitter account makes me feel that they will eventually get him back.

Sehwag and Kirsten also share a good rapport with each other.

What I believe could be Delhi's thinking is that Sehwag has been out of form, so they didn't wish to spend Rs. 12 crore on him. I guess they feel that he will be sold for around 5-6 or maximum 8-9 crores in the auction, so getting him back using the RTM card will save the franchise's money.

This.
They lost many of their local heroes like Gautam Gambhir, Virat Kohli, Ashish Nehera, Shikar Dhawan. I don't think they will lose Sehwag. Yes Delhi could have been in that strategy of "spending 12 crores on Sehwag is too much". They have RTM cards, they will use one to get back Sehwag.

If this is true than it has to be Punjab because all the other teams have a captain and I don't think Delhi is going to buy Sehwag back in the auction.

Could be SRH too. Sehwag - Dhawan combo.

Viru himself dont like to captain the side. be it India or DD he himself steped aside so i dont see him taking the responsablity

That million dollar baby is MI's property.

I know mi will definitely look to buy him at any cost. If he comes to rcb by seeing his current distractive form then it will be just like flood gates are open in chinnaswamy stadium along with the monsterous players like gayle, virat and ab

Rcb aiming for allrounders I am sure they will go for albie and they are willing to buy back few local players who played for them from season 1-3. On a raw guess rcb will go for 1 oversea allrounder from sa or nz and a pace bowler from aus or wi and they are willing to get vinay kumar back over zack

 

[Sahil 7]

If Rcb really looking to buy an all rounder then I think that angelo matthews will an better option then an albie morkel

Then Irfan?

 

[Lebanna]

RCB already have 2 international players retained (Ab and Gayle) they need to be careful they don't have a situation like the last couple of years where they had too many international players. Players like Murali were sometimes on the bench where he is completely wasted. They need to pick up some Indian talent (Irfan might not be a bad idea if they use him well).

Two allrounders and two oversea pace bowlers. Why no mathews ? Yes he is a quality player but when it comes to playing under pressure he does not add the weight as morkel does so its better to get morkel than mathews

MI will have to shell out some money if want to get the players like Mitch, Ojha and Karthik back since they all have been valued at the highest base price. I wonder why they kept with Harbhajan when they could have had Ojha in their ranks who is a wicket-taker. Harbhajan bats but not that great to overlook Ojha who his miles ahead (on both form and record) than the former. Also, Karthik would have been a better pick than Rayudu despite the fact that Karthik have been good only for the last season because you cannot MI lacks a specialist keeper in their setup which they have found in Karthik the last time and it is their lack of keeper-batsman is what have kept them away from more season wins since they don't find a great balance in the side.

Actually, Bhajji was great in last season for team. I think he got 22 wickets last season. His low economy and wicket taking at crucial times was superb through out the season. Only due to his 12/13 years international experience, he can stop any storm looking batsman like Gayle, ABD, Miller, etc. He could stop such players from scoring quick runs. That decision is done on the basis of his last season performance and some better qualities under him. If we miss Ojha, then any other average spin bowler can create good chances since Kumble is mentor and coach at the franchise.
Rayudu is more important over Karthik. Yeah, I know Karthik done brilliantly in last season but he wasn't consistent for whole season, was he? No. He can make differences sometimes, not many times (I don't say every time). Rayudu is good instead. He was absolutely a match winner in IPL-4 & IPL-5. He can play vital role in second innings and is a hopeful batsman overall.

My point is MI need a local gloveman to fit in their best combination. Rayudu can keep but he is not reliable now that does not keep for his domestic team on a regular basis as well. 20 overs is not much but still. If they can get a good keeper-bat like Pinal Shah, Naman Ojha, Kedar Jadhav, Uday Kaul or Parthiv Patel, they would look a whole lot different team because a local keeper gives them the best possible balance to play the big shot players they have got.

It would be a good idea for CSK to get Dinesh Karthik, who would then be a local guy because he is from Chennai. A backup keeper for Dhoni, and Karthik has been very sound for MI in the top of their order. Karthik can open for Chennai or bat at No.4.

If we can get Mike Hussey back again, I would be very happy. We need Huss who was our backbone last season. I wonder why CSK gave up on him.

 

[Pinch hitter]

I don't think CSK need a backup Wicketkeeper in cost of 2 core or more... and about Hussey, may be they don't want to take risk on him... because he is retired player... but considering his form in bigbash, they may get him using right to match card... CSK will like to spend there money on Mitchell Johnson and Anderson (NZ) for sure... As a RCB fan I with our captain Virat on Yuvraj Buy...
