SRH with another Chinaman Krains fultera...

Maran cooking on these left arm wristies.

@Nikhil_cric 2 new Indian left arm wrist spinners all of a sudden in IPl

 

The release point and overspin , many batsmen find it difficult. 

 

13 cr for Livingston is a scam though. He's not that good

CSK wants gasolina guy huh lol.

Krains may have been bought due to Unadkat, he played in same domestic t20 league as Unadkat, Think Unadkat saw him in the nets and then next season got him in his domestic side and now SRH

On that flat uppal track he can do some damage as well.

SRH has lot of money to waste though.  They don't care

 

Their purse will still be left by a lot

Krains is highly rated by Ashwin as well.  His mock auction he went as high as 8cr

Could be result of elite scouting by SRH

Was Kundu picked by anyone? That kid has a lot of potential

Let him play age grp cricket alot to improve, he is no where near even the domestic side. Let him play some domestic cricket.

Age grp is diff. than IPL, both Vaibhav and Mhatre are unique and every1 is not them.

Why did no one bought Prithvi Shaw? Isn't he having a good SMAT

Might still get picked.

Mallika Sagar has some seriously good genes. Doesn't look like a 50 year old at all

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

Shaw is a boundary hitter at best

Its more to do with Unadkat and Saurashtra Premier League 

[Lone Wolf]

Ben Dwarshius to PBKS .. good pick.  Left arm pacer with solid defensive skills.

 

Punter influencing PBKS picks looks like.

 

[Lone Wolf]

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

That swag and confidence is close to Rishabh Pant's level. I don't think he is that far behind Ayush. Proper middle order six hitter.  Also plays every corner of the ground.

RCB Jacob Duffy at 2 crore and Jordan Cox at 75 lakhs. 

 

Absolute steals. 

 

There was a time when they were the dumbest franchise at any auction

Duffy is a good pick.  Not sure about Cox.. but at 75L he isn't bad.

Almost all their picks are over-priced. Not sure what the hell they were thinking. They used to be smart at the auction table. They would  usually go for discards lol. After their expedrience with Patidar and Hooda they are avoiding that strategy. But now they are going to the other extreme.
