*Official* Indian Premier League 2010

[morgieb]

Yusuf Abdulla goes to Punjab.

 

[bryce]

Warnie's Royals.

Haha

I'm confused - does that mean both Aamer & Gul were unwanted?

 

[chaminda_00]

WTF we could have got Hughes at 100k. I guess there is questions over his avaiablity during the NZ Test series. Kemp should is a decent signing as backup batsmen.

 

[morgieb]

Mohammad Kaif going into the auction - that's interesting news.

 

[Arjun]

Bid war on between RCB and Arsenal...

EDIT: KXI have bought out Kaif for $250000. Strange choice, given they lacked strikers last season.

 

[Jayzamann]

Would have been way more interesting if politics and FTP didn't get in the way of this. Disappointing to see some real talents ignored, but also excited about some old faces showing up again.

 

[mohammad16]

are these figures on a monthly basis? so pollar makes 750 K a month? damn thats NBA NFL like salary.

Ang attracting great bids. This is crazy.

 

[RAZAAAA]

IPL teams told not to bid for Pakistani players in auction

Nah just per season.

iirc if players only play a certain %age of games, they only get a certain %age of their price.

No for the entire season which is about 2 months

 

[Jayzamann]

Harmeet Singh that sounds familiar. He played for Deccan, didn't he?

Could only just fit his turban under his wide-brimmed hat.

 

[Redbacks]

Australian players would also have a reduced marketability due to the media around current issues in Melbourne.

That is interesting. Apparently reason is "The primary reason being security concerns over their availability for the tournament."

Heh there's two...

edit: waaaait, this is good. If Mumbai don't make the CLT20 and neither do T&T, South Australia have Pollard AND Afridi. Nice.

 

[morgieb]

Bangalore get the U/19 Indian captain Ashok Meenaria. Two others, Harshal Patel and Hameet Singh, are yet to be drafted.

It will be fun to see Afridi playing for SA in India in the CL.

 

[Jayzamann]

Hopefully Deccan have the other Harmeet Singh on their roster as well. And hopefully they play together at least once.

I am still confuse.. so the rule for these Frenchies are that they have to pick indian upcoming players over international cricketers? for example all these upcoming under 19 cricketers that we haven't heard of.. they are being picked over international cricketers here..

Indian cricketers are inherently more value because the quota. Their minimum asking values would also be smaller. It wouldn't be instruction; it's just common sense.
