I much prefer the Champions League to the IPL, but will still watch it anyway. Would be better if they did allow more foreigners to play, people of countries would watch just to see how their fellow countryman does.

Always pick a team before the tournament to support, but will wait till the squads are finalized. The sunrisers are off the good start with de Kock though

Anyone seen the fielding standard in the IPL? That gives Maxwell an extra $200,000.

As when Christian got his dosh, there is always a bit of extra interest in a guy who can make runs straight away down the order. There are a million batsmen who can smoke them batting in the top 3, when they get some time at the crease, but not many can reel off 25 from 15 at the death on a consistent basis.

To be fair, Maxwell has not done it on a consistent basis; and he's certainly not worth what he's getting IMO, but that helps explain how these guys like him and Christian get such big prices.

Yes, was supposed to add that at the end. Don't understand how Rohrer can be overlooked, such a genius at a rare role.
