zen Posted January 14, 2022 Author Posted January 14, 2022 (edited) If Lucknow is paying KL “more”, it may have to go for an uncapped player as its 3rd pick. In this case: KL 15-18 cr Warner or Rabada or … (1 overseas) 11 cr Bishnoi or equivalent (uncapped) 4 cr … 7 cr for a capped player (Chahal, etc) 33 cr budget Edited January 14, 2022 by zen

zen Posted January 18, 2022 Author Posted January 18, 2022 Lucknow IPL franchise picks up Rahul, Stoinis and Bishnoi KL 15 cr Stoinis 11 cr Bishnoi 4 cr Budget for auction 60 cr
coffee_rules Posted January 18, 2022 Posted January 18, 2022 SP - Smugller Pandya - is he also going to join Amhedabad? They are like Buy one get one free offer!

They are like Buy one get one free offer! Krunal is a good T20 player. Especially good at bowling with the wet ball as dew could be an issue at A’bad and a useful lower middle order batsman … Also a local state boy! Edited January 18, 2022 by zen coffee_rules 1
zen Posted January 18, 2022 Author Posted January 18, 2022 (edited) A’bad has hit a marketing jackpot: SDP - has a huge fan following esp. among youngsters + the local boy so icing on the cake Rashid - again has a huge fan following Gill - has a strong fan base as well since his performances in the U19. His SR can be an issue but A’bad is a big ground so maybe his style will work All the 3 players are from IPL winning teams with SDP as a 4 times champion Also those picked for coaching and in draft, A’bad is the 2nd franchise for all of them Kirsten, Nehra, and Solanki have only worked with RCB before SDP has only played for MI before Rashid has only played for SRH before Gill has only played for KKR before It could be as if fate brought all of them together Edited January 18, 2022 by zen
urbestfriend Posted January 18, 2022 Posted January 18, 2022 Whats worse is Poonjab releasing Bishnoi...I dont understand how Kumble can be so dumb..They could've retained him..

Yeah, every team needs a good spinner ... If you had an upcoming talent like Bishnoi, why not retain him (and PK could have got him for 4 cr) Vijy 1
zen Posted January 21, 2022 Author Posted January 21, 2022 Per latest, L'now draft price list: KL - 17 cr Stoinis - 9.2 cr Bishnoi - 4 cr
Sunil_narine024 Posted January 21, 2022 Posted January 21, 2022 (edited) Ahmedabad Players Harding Pandya- 15 cr Rashid Khan- 15 cr Shubman Gill- 8cr Little surprised over Gill but teams are thinking about developing young players and not finished products. Understandable. Edited January 21, 2022 by Sunil_narine024
zen Posted January 21, 2022 Author Posted January 21, 2022 With 17 cr, KL is the most expensive pick among retentained/drafted players
zen Posted January 24, 2022 Author Posted January 24, 2022 IIRC, teams are supposed to give their names by Jan 31st.
zen Posted January 24, 2022 Author Posted January 24, 2022 Goenka continues with his "innovation" by naming Pune Lucknow "Super Giants" Lord and Sgattick10 2
zen Posted January 24, 2022 Author Posted January 24, 2022 Lucknow also picked Stoinis, who earlier played for DD/DC, K11P, RCB, DC, and now LSG!! (His luck draws him to teams yet to win a title)
maniac Posted January 24, 2022 Posted January 24, 2022 I am conflicted on making Pandya captain. Here is a guy who has been struggling with injuries and proving his utility, I have no problem if he is made captain if he returns to 2017-2018 level of gun loi player but I think he will be carrying too much baggage. No hate, good luck to him.
ThirtyD. Posted January 24, 2022 Posted January 24, 2022 1000s of crores spent on the team, yet they come up with this crap? Where is the ingenuity? Any guesses what their primary kit color would be? (going by the past; hint: purple ) Also, whoever recommended this group to have KL lead this team must be laughing his/her way to the bank. Kothili 1

I am sure guys like Rahul and Pandya will take offers for 1-2 crores as well.

Reports suggest that KL is actually going to be paid 20 cr ... 17 cr paycheck + 3 cr channeled through "advertising"
Lord Posted January 24, 2022 Posted January 24, 2022 apparently they conducted a fan poll to come up with this name zen 1
