Sir john Posted May 2, 2012 Posted May 2, 2012 West Indies all-rounder Dwayne Smith will join the Mumbai Indians squad on Thursday as a replacement for Australian pacer Mitchell Johnson. The Australian fast bowler was ruled out to play IPL by Cricket Australia due to a foot injury that he had sustained in November last year. Since then he has not played for the Australian team. During the IPL auction, Mumbai Indians had bought him for $300000. Smith, on the other hand, had remained unsold in the auction with a base price of $100000. He had started his IPL career with Mumbai in 2008. In 2009 he was taken by the Deccan Chargers. thank you Mumbai :isalute:
bulbul Posted May 2, 2012 Posted May 2, 2012 Now bambi's will become unstoppable also they got Girgut's support :fear:
Zelig Posted May 2, 2012 Posted May 2, 2012 Good move. Dw Smith is a slogger but he is in good form :agree:
Sir john Posted May 2, 2012 Author Posted May 2, 2012 am is fan from old days when he was in :dc: team hope he play well in whole ipl
Sidhoni Posted May 2, 2012 Posted May 2, 2012 Why? Levi/Gibbs ,Franklin, Malinga, Pollard will be the 4 foreigners they will be playing.. I do not see them trying him.
Zelig Posted May 2, 2012 Posted May 2, 2012 Faillard is injured and Dw Smith is a better overall player compared to Levi & Franklin.
Sidhoni Posted May 2, 2012 Posted May 2, 2012 Faillard is injured and Dw Smith is a better overall player compared to Levi & Franklin. Yes, but MI would continue playing Franklin. They can try Gibbs/Jacobs instead of Levi at the top. When did Pollard get injured?
Zelig Posted May 2, 2012 Posted May 2, 2012 Yes' date=' but MI would continue playing Franklin. They can try Gibbs/Jacobs instead of Levi at the top. When did Pollard get injured?[/quote'] He got injured taking a catch in DD match(?). Gibbs is injured too.
Executioner Posted May 2, 2012 Posted May 2, 2012 Smith is a good buy. He got a century in BPL and a couple of 50s. HE also did well in a recent T20 Match against Oz A good batsman to have in the middle order. Destructive against spinner. And also provide good pace bowling :)
shinchan Posted May 2, 2012 Posted May 2, 2012 he actually opened inning in T20 match against aussies:hmmm: will not be surprised if he opens inning
Zelig Posted May 2, 2012 Posted May 2, 2012 Can open the batting, bowl a bit, electric fielder, an ISI patented cowlasher - a perfect foil for T20 :hatsoff:
nitinbwj Posted May 2, 2012 Posted May 2, 2012 Levi/Gibbs ' date=Franklin, Malinga, Pollard will be the 4 foreigners they will be playing.. I do not see them trying him. Don't see them playing any match from here on
nitinbwj Posted May 2, 2012 Posted May 2, 2012 Can open the batting' date=' bowl a bit, electric fielder, an [b']ISI patented cowlasher - a perfect foil for T20 :hatsoff: :hysterical: and his sixes are amazing
Zelig Posted May 2, 2012 Posted May 2, 2012 :hysterical: and his sixes are amazing Should of been ISO Sorry Paki brahs :five:
