Champions league squads

Noble One

Anyone have much information on William Sheridan for Victoria?

I remember he played U/19 cricket for Australia. Didn't know he was really in contention for Victoria. Possibly going for the experience, large squads selected for Champions League.

Do the IPL sides still have the 4 overseas player restriction when competing in the CL?

Sussex have two overseas players in their squad. Chawla and Arafat. Can only play one domestically in England so it will be interesting if they can field two in the IPL.

Interesting... the IPL franchises can field four overseas players, so surely all the other sides should have the right to, in the same way that all the sides in football's Champions League are subject to the same restrictions (or lack of) on non-EU players, whereas in Spanish domestic football there are limitations.

If so we could just see the qualified domestic sides buying in as much talent as possible. Are they allowed to select IPL players whose franchises haven't qualified?

Above all the squads just show how unbalanced the tournament is. The IPL sides are full of international talent, backed by their big dollars; all the other sides have a couple of stars and then a bunch of journeymen.

Would imagine Kolpaks would have to be counted as overseas players for this, as the tournamnet isn't in the EU...that would mean Sussex already have Smith, Chawla, Aga & Arafat (Has Goodwin retireed from T20?0

Somerset have Langer, de Bruyn, Banks, Kieswetter, Thomas

Left arm fast medium bowler, right hand batsman who hits the ball pretty cleanly. Came down half-way through last season from the ACT, and played a 2nd XI game or two towards the end of the year.

Goodwin has played in the ICL, so he's not available...apparently he could go in a non-playing or coaching capacity though, which seems a bit odd. It would ultimately mean nothing more than a holiday.
