Wish some team would take a punt on Murugan Ashwin. They overpaid and kept likes of Mishra and Chawla for years, this guy is a trier.

Unfit, not passionate probably not recommended... The domestic middle order hitters are top priority.

Shaw is a boundary hitter at best 

A lot of domestic openers have done well in this smat , Shaw is not even in top 20 run getter. And not a 6-hitter.

Rahul Chahar bad pick by CSK.  5.5cr is way too high

 

 

Rhaul is regressed a lot, can not land 5 balls properly, always bowls short. He was in Ind wc team.

His problem is he could turn the ball proper leg break which he stopped doing and tries to dart.

Have not seen a spinner go this bad after playing for Ind, it has happened with batter and pacers due to many things but spinners does not have such a dip

Too much for Pathirana.

If he is fit , his 4 overs can change the game , rt. now its like big risk and big reward thing who ever is getting him

Kuldeep Sen in IPL. Take that @maniac

[AKane]

I have not understood the fascination of teams and fans with a certain Pathirana.

 

Pathirana is "the man" as per this auction.... I guess we will see.

 

Even Thala bows down to Pathirana as I suppose his "Thala approved age group" is only meant for Indians and does not apply to Pathirana.

Prithvi Raj to DC

Pathirana when fully fit is a match winner, he is not only a wkt taker but is eco. as the same time. this is v.imp. 

He can nail multiple yorkers in an over with ~150 kmph pace.

 

His case is similar to noor if he does not bowl few bad ball every over he is hard to hit and he is wkt taker.
