Now just announce the coaching staff.

 

[AliB]

July 3, Mumbai: The Phoenix Bros hired some coaches for the Fifth edition of the PlanetCricket Premier League. The Coaches has been signed for a one season contract. The coaching staff is:

CHIEF MENTOR:

Sachin Tendukar
Born April 24, 1973, Bombay (now Mumbai), Maharashtra
Current age 42 years 70 days

Short Bio
Sachin Tendulkar has been the most complete batsman of his time, the most prolific runmaker of all time, and arguably the biggest cricket icon the game has ever known. His batting was based on the purest principles: perfect balance, economy of movement, precision in stroke-making, and that intangible quality given only to geniuses - anticipation. If he didn't have a signature stroke - the upright, back-foot punch comes close - it's because he was equally proficient at each of the full range of orthodox shots (and plenty of improvised ones as well) and can pull them out at will.

HEAD COACH:

Chandika Hathurusingha
Born September 13, 1968, Colombo
Current age 46 years 293 days

Short Bio:
An opening batsman with a compact style and steadfast nature, Hathurusingha forged a steady opening partnership with Roshan Mahanama. Capable of playing lengthy innings when the situation warranted ,Hathurusingha possessed a variety of strokes. A handy medium-pace bowler, capable of genuine movement through the air. Called into the side against New Zealand at Hamilton as a replacement for the injured Mahanama, he responded by making three half-centuries in his first three Tests.

BATTING COACH

Saurav Gangluly
Born July 8, 1972, Calcutta (now Kolkata), Bengal
Current age 42 years 360 days

Short Bio:
Some felt he couldn't play the bouncer, others swore that he was God on the off-side; some laughed at his lack of athleticism, others took immense pride in his ability to galvanise a side. Sourav Ganguly's ability to polarise opinion led to one of the most fascinating dramas in Indian cricket. Yet, nobody can dispute that he was India's most successful Test captain - forging a winning unit from a bunch of talented, but directionless, individuals - and nobody can argue about him being one of the greatest one-day batsmen of all time

BOWLING COACH(ES)

Saqlain Mushtaq
Born December 29, 1976, Lahore, Punjab
Current age 38 years 186 days

Short Bio:
A trend-setter. Saqlain Mushtaq was perhaps the first offspinner to master the doosra, a delivery that spins away from the batsman even though it is delivered with an offspinner's action. Saqlain has a fast, short-stepping action with a halting delivery.Saqlain's international career got off to a splendid start - he was the fastest bowler to 100 one-day wickets, and his phenomenal control meant that he regularly bowled at the death. But his finest moment arguably came in a Test match, at Chennai in 1998-99, when his ten-for allowed Pakistan to sneak nerve-tingling 12-run win against India

Dennis Lillee
Born July 18, 1949, Subiaco, Perth, Western Australia
Current age 65 years 350 days

Short Bio:
Dennis Lillee, considered by many to have been "the complete bowler", was the heart of Australia's attack for more than a decade. Through a combination of ability, showmanship and sheer hard work he won the loyal following of the nation's crowds, who often roared his name as he ran in to bowl. And Lillee repaid their faith with interest - he was the type of character whom captains could rely on to bowl "one more over" at the end of a long spell, and often made breakthroughs when success seemed unlikely

FIELDING COACH:

Trevor Penney
Born June 12, 1968, Salisbury (now Harare), Rhodesia
Current age 47 years 21 days

Short Bio:
A Warwickshire stalwart for 17 years, Trevor Penney retired from first-class cricket at the end of the 2005 season to take up a post as Sri Lanka's assistant coach, where he teamed up with his former county team-mate, Tom Moody. Originally from Zimbabwe, Penney joined the county in 1988 whereupon he embarked on a four-year residential qualification.

Good to see my best mate in the mentor slot! However this could become a problem with Matt's team who we all know have licensing rights for Tendulkar and the Helicopter shot...

Hi Team Manager's,

My Name is Navin Gandhi, One of the PCPL player waiting to be picked up in the auction. The basic reason for this post is to sell myself to one of the PCPL team, to show you managers the Unique ability I have has a PCPL player.

I am not going to bore you guys with fictional stories, I did my own research and I am going to present them here to you all to show my uniqueness.

So lets start with my Playing style,

Genuine all-rounder / Navin Gandhi / RHB / OS

Well you might think what is great in this, looks like a normal all-rounder.. Right? If yes, then you are wrong. First let me explain who is a Genuine All-Rounder.

"The generally accepted criterion is that a "genuine all-rounder" is someone whose batting or bowling skills, considered alone, would be good enough to win him a place in the team for which he plays.[citation needed] Another definition of a "genuine all-rounder" is a player who can through both batting and bowling (though not necessarily both in the same match), consistently "win matches for the team" (i.e., propel his/her team to victory by an outstanding individual performance). By either definition, a genuine all-rounder is quite rare and extremely valuable to a team as he effectively operates as two players." (Source Wikipedia)

So if you think this one point makes me valuable, then wait to see the upcoming points.

Well my batting style is just a common one, Right Hand Batsmen so nothing to sell in that, By Strength is bowling style.

"Off Spin"

You think its common, then you are wrong. Below are my points to prove that,

1. In Bowling Category there is only one Off Spinner - Aoun Mohammad

2. In Bowling-all Rounder category there are two Off-spinner's - Svenke Ulberg and Rohith Adithya

3. In Batting-All rounder category, well there are quite a lot of Off-Spinner's

Shravan Holt
Ash Sharma
Luuk van den Broek
Abhishek Vasudevan
Anand V
Dominic Manoj Kumar
Ashutosh Kaushik

But all these players or not valuable like an Genuine all-rounder, Bowler cant win you matches with bat, Same goes for Bowling-all rounders, they can contribute with bat but cant be match winning, Batting all-rounders can be great for you with bat but with some luck can pick up wickets but they have the chance of giving away the runs which they score, to be short and sweet not dependable during a close chase match.

So I think you all might be convinced that Genuine all-rounder are the real match winners right. Good so in our PCPL auction there are total of 9 Genuine all-rounders, in which 6 are Seamer's and only 3 are spinners. Want to know how I stand out of that group of 3? that's simple I am the only Off-Spinner and the remaining two are "Slow-Left Orthodox" (Muller Schwanstegger and Sabit Alam).

I think, I need not lecture about off-spinners and their ability to win matches, So overall has Wikipedia said I am quite rare and extremely valuable to a team as I can effectively operate as two players. So join the PCPL auction today (9th July) at 18.00 and look out for me in Pool C, bid for me and win a winner for your team.

Pool C / 5 / #42 / Navin Gandhi / @NaviN GandhI / Genuine all-rounder / RHB / OS / $6,000

NOTE : 1. If I have offended any other players I am extremely sorry, Just trying to make my player interesting.

2. Managers Please note that I have posted this in all team's thread and not just in yours. Want my player win him in the auction.
