Was going to play you as much as I could.

Alrighty then, I'll hang around in India for the first 5 rounds (ie. until the end of the 22nd of April) then head for Aus.

Will do the Royals orders later today.

Kings XI Punjab

Smith (CW)
Sangakkara (SL) (+)
Kaul
Fuller (CW)
Y Singh (c)
A Sharma
Pathan
Chawla
Lee (AUS)
V Singh
Sreesanth

Liam, Sreesanth wasn't on your list but he's at Punjab. Also, not sure who PK Panchal is but he isn't on the Punjab list.

Bowling:

1: Lee, Sreesanth, Mills,
2 Pathan, V Singh, Fuller, Argal,
3 Chawla, Smith, Powar, Swann, Hopes,
4 Y Singh, Katich, Jayawardene, Sarwan,

Think that's okay.

First XI
GC Smith (SAF)
TS Kohli
SR Watson (AUS)
K Akmal+ (PAK)
M Kaif
AP Revandkar
RA Jadeja
YK Pathan
SK Warne* (AUS)
Pankaj Singh
MM Patel

Bowling Orders
1. MM Patel, S Tanvir, XPA Rose
2. P Singh, SR Watson
3. SK Warne, AD Mascarenhas
4. YK Pathan, RA Jadeja
5. MW DeSilva, SJ Benn
6. GC Smith, DA Kearsley

I don't have an Indian keeper or many decent bats at all, so most international players aren't going to play much due to Akmal, Warne, Smith and Watson being almost lock-ins. Obviously Dubbers, DeSilva and Kears are options for the batsmen and will get their chances.

Are we using the old 25Smash Averages as guide at all? 515 runs @ 103, gosh i loved that form of the game

Fairly strong side, but so are all the rest, tough competition ahead i reckon.

Wonder if many CW people realise that they could play a full season of offseason over 5 or so IPL games.

A 17-year-old kid, who must have been on the list at some point, because I couldn't have just made him up. Sreesanth to be added now.
