Trans Tasman Premier League

[blake]

A fairly weak squad put out there from Hedger, he's definitely taken a big step back from his squad last season.

Why is Hauritz you're skipper over Clarke?

 

[CG123]

I think my team looks really strong...
Nine out of 11 of my player's have represented NZ...

Also got NZ's two best all-rounders.
One of who happens to also be NZ's best bowler and arguably our best batsmen.

Because Hauritz is mad.

@ Blake, I have 4 Internationals in Clarke, Hauritz, McDonald and Bollinger. I also have Ashley Noffke. Ryan Broad is in the Australian A squad. Townsend didn't play too badly last APL season, averaging 66.5 although he only got out twice. Steven Smith is a very promising youngster. He averages 35 or so in both FC and List A cricket in his 15 or so matches. His 81 off 58 including 5 sixes in his latest OD match against TAS showed his talent. He was also a good bowler in the T20 form of the game, being the joint highest wicket taker of the KFC big bash last year with 9 dismissals, including 4/15 in one game. It isn't a half bad squad.

My bowling is still a whole lot better than yours though. 2 bowlers, I haven't even heard of.

Stephen Fleming will coach the Thunderbolts as mentioned a few days back.

Hedger, Steve O'keefe is an allrounder mate. I would class Noffke as one too.

Hey biggy, you can update my home ground on the first post...

I posted it on post 2534.

Well in your opinion, which squads look the strongest?
My squad is pretty decent, I got 2 great Aussie bowlers and both had a very strong Last Season. Also got in Casson, talented and adds a variation to the bwling attack
All lot depends on Watson here, I need him to replicate the form he has showed for the Aussies lately. If he has a great season, he can actually be a two-in-one-player.
The batting is considerably weak, but I still guess I have a string of potentially talented players who can make a difference, but it still requires heavy performances from Watson at the top. Need to go for some batting internationals

 

[CG123]

Mine...

Out of the Aussie squads I have hardly heard of anyone outside their first few picks, therefore I can't really judge it...

Out of the NZ ones, besides mine bcvs's one looks like one of the stronger ones.

 

[hedger_14]

@ mattfb, I know Steve O'Keefe is classed as an all-rounder and I would do the same with Noffke but I have just used the squads on the first post for that squad.

hedger_14 added 16 Minutes and 17 Seconds later...

John Hastings is classified as an all-rounder, Biggy as well.

[mattfb]

[CG123]

I have only heard of 3 dudes in the squad above:
Hughes, Haddin and Nannes none who I would call world class.
You must of got one of the later first picks...

 

[mattfb]

Well your knowledge of domestic cricket sucks. A majority of my players are class domestic players.

 

[drainpipe32]

I assure you, he has a very good squad

I've got two household names, in McGrath and Hodge

Next best after that would be Rogers and McKay, so I'm not very well off D:

LOL, I have cricket training tomorrow. If my mum picks me up late
