we have around 250,000 remaining, best way to spend it is to bet the whole amount on a very promising Indian, hopefully Raina , Kaif or Manoj Tiwary , maybe Rohit. Bowling looks settled for Chennai, Morkel, Oram, Joggi and Murali. Batting lineup is Hayden, Fleming, Dhoni Oram. We should go for Indian player as we can only play 4 Int'l in a 11.

Or maybe we should just pay McGrath's base price of 250,000 and be done with it...there are enough local U-22 players in Chennai.

That's a seriously crappy bowling line up.

The BIGGEST goofup so far has been NO ONE has been keeping any money for Lasith malinga...IMO, he is worth 800,000 at least and a sure matchwinner, can turn a game inside an over.

Morkel is a pretty good T20 bowler, his econ rate is 6 in T20 and 5.2 in ODIs, very good in fact, and he also averages 28 in T20 @ 133 SR. We have Oram, and Murali to backup Morkel too. Chennai will have very aggressive batters and will bat deep. Hayden, Fleming, Dhoni and Oram in MO, with Morkel at 7 or 8 should be pretty good

Chennai and Mohali just spent too loosely. Even Kolkatta has some money left. Delhi probably got too many bits and pieces players (and most of them overseas players which is not good because only 4 can play). Bangalore spent money on test players. But maybe they might still grab someone and save a possible disaster.

I would happily settle for Oram, Morkel, Murali and Jogi...compared to Akthar, Aggy and Ganguly :hysterical:

What do you expect with Dravid sitting in Mumbai and bidding for bangalore :hysterical: he was just keen to get ONE big amount player for close to a million bucks ( Kallis) so that he was guaranteed 1.1 millions..LOL...Dravid , Kallis and Kumble being paid 2.5 millions together ( 50% of bid amount) for T20 :hysterical: :hysterical: :hysterical:

Morkel is good but not good to fetch .625 million. Jogi will be bashed mercilessly. Oram isn't that good either. Moreover you won't be able to play all of your overseas players at the same time. You have a competitive side because of Oram, Murali, Hayden and Dhoni. But no way is this side gonna compete against Hyd.

Shoaib and aggy are anytime better front line bowlers than Oram and Morkel.
Sure , after first 5 overs the analysis will read... Akthar 2.3 - 0- 25-1 ( retired injured) Agarkar : 2--0-38-0 ( team injured) :D Chennai's score card will read 72-1 in 4.3 overs , Hayden batting 45 :D
