IPL 2017

true but issue with Faulkner is that he really struggling at the moment, last thing I heard on him was he wasn't looking good in the nets.

Gujarat's team looks awful. Will need 200 with that bowling attack.

got decent spinners and will probably do well in home conditions especially when Jadeja comes back.
they really should have bidded for a stokes or an all rounder.
Gujarat were living to the stereotypes of being so money tight in the Auction.

They have Faulkner but picked Dwayne Smith instead...

Smith was first choice of foreign players.Very expected.

I'll never understand why any team picks Smith. A waste of an overseas pick.

[Dr Cricket]

What your take on the UAE batsman that gujarat thought was an indian qualified player dan.
Chirag Suri is the oddest auction buy ever.

[Dr Cricket]

Why is Pathan bowling.

2 for Cooldeep

They bought him because he scored 70 against Rajasthan in a practice match when IPL was in UAE.

I had never heard of him to be honest. He doesn't even get in the UAE squads anymore. Waste of money but good for that kid.

still an odd pick considering at the time half the franchise didn't even know if he was UAE national or eligible as an Indian.
Believe dual citizen can play as a local player in the IPL, only two examples though Nayan Doshi and the kenyan batsman that I forgot the name off.
yeah good for the kid, but says a lot about the franchise auction that they didn't really know what they were doing.

Yep that was Tanmay Mishra. They let him play as a local.

[Dr Cricket]

Raina should do the lottery.

[dan08]

Raina has somehow made it to 50.

[Dr Cricket]

Fielding is shocking today from KKR.

[dan08]

Raina dropped again. How many lives does he have...

[Dr Cricket]

Wonder what planet Gujarat still got a good price in this game.

Batting Dwayne Smith low down the order is waste. He was successful opener for CSK. But tough to accomodate Big Mac, Jason, Finch and Smith in 2 opening spots.
