So all keepers are better than cool in the freaking TNPL but some chamchas here will tell you he's the best keeper in the world because he makes some outstanding regulation stumpings.

Chamchas have to do their master's bidding, aur kya? Team India can take a backseat for them.

just an honest question, cant they think of some other name why premier league. Why not some other aggrandizing adjective and then league ? 

 

may be super league, or tn cricket league etc

[BeautifulGame]

Washington Sunder is really having a great tournament.

 

100 today and excellent with the ball as as well.

 

He is crazy potential.Just 17 ffs.Wont be surprised if he goes for crazy money at IPL auction unless CSK gets to retain him.

 

Should be a certainty for next year U-19 world cup as well.

Exactly.

 

I just hate this aping of western names and terms.

 

Indians are very imaginative and artistic people and we can surely come up with our own, mind-capturing names.

Has any new and exciting fast bowler been discovered in TNPL ?

Washington Sundar should be fast tracked into CSK.

Athisayaraj's bowling action is a carbon copy of Malinga's. He looks to bowl 135kph but the speed gun shows 125

Speed guns are 5 to 10ks lower in domestics atleast in Ranjis and other domestic tourneys. Not sure how it is in TNPL.

Tnpl vs psl which is better. I would say Tnpl in production quality, player quality may be psl has better because of international players.

[SecondSlip]

Washington Sundar is both the highest run scorer and highest wicket taker so far

  should bid for him.

CSK no longer Super Kings and won't have much influence on team India selection with downfall of Dhoni.

Not surprised at all. Mature cricketer for his age. If he did well against International players in IPL, TNPL must not be much of a challenge. Expect big bidding for him next IPL.
