asterix Posted May 8, 2012 Posted May 8, 2012 RR have definitely been unlucky as their team has always over performed and therefore there has been a higher unfair scrutiny over their players. If those players were playing for MI, nothing would have happened. But it is really Kamran Khan own fault, as I mentioned he choose money over loyalty. What if RR decided to 'sell' Kamran to PWI.. Or 'released' him in the market...

Kamran Khan himself had no say in which team or how much money he earned. You realize that, don't you?

You realize that, don't you?[/quote'] Nope, he had both offers from RR and Pune. He went for Pune and I can only see one reason. $$ If only he had learned some things from say like Trivedi who was still loyal and signed for RR. Things could have been different for him.

bulbul Posted May 8, 2012 Posted May 8, 2012 March -2010 Rajasthan Royals got a boost to their Indian Premier League (IPL) campaign when their key pacer Kamran Khan was given the go-ahead to play in the league. The young pacerÃÔ action was discussed at the recent IPL governing council meet where it was felt that Kamran could be allowed to play. However, his action will be under scrutiny during the tournament. ŸeÃÓe expecting the final report but I think he should be ok. Ravi Shastri, NCA chairman and IPL governing council member, has seen his action and is satisfied, IPL commissioner Lalit Modi told DNA. ŸeÃÓe looking forward to his performance, Royals chief executive Sean Morris told this paper. Khan said he was always confident of getting the go-ahead. Ū expected it. The biomechanists in Australia (Perth) have cleared my action. There was some suspicion because my bowling arm bends because of an injury suffered in my childhood, he said. Kamran, who shot into fame after holding his nerve in the eliminator over against Kolkata Knight Riders on April 23 last year, was reported by Rudi Koertzen and Gary Baxter after the Royals match against Chennai Super Kings at Centurion on April 30. He did not take part in the IPL II after that. He was sent to Australia by the Royals to have his action rectified
someone Posted May 8, 2012 Posted May 8, 2012 Okay so he was not auctioned. But really' date=' even if did pick RR do you think he wouldn't have been banned?[/quote'] There is three issues. 1. Firstly, he went for $$ over just playing cricket. Therefore he has only himself to blame. 2. There have been players who have also had these controversies, but they haven't been banned. 3. Still Karman Khan, has more than enough $$. If he is smart enough, he should not have no problems for his next many years. So we all do not need to have any sympathy for him.

So we all suddenly do not need to have any sympathy with him. 4.we have enough bowlers in India [experts opinion] who are struggling to get matches in IPL let alone National team so he wont be missed either
1983-2011 Posted May 8, 2012 Posted May 8, 2012 There is three issues. 1. Firstly, he went for $$ over just playing cricket. Therefore he has only himself to blame. how did he got PWI for cash as he only got paid 10 lakhs ($20,000) which is the minimum salary for a uncapped Indian player in IPL.
Needforspeed Posted May 8, 2012 Posted May 8, 2012 4.we have enough bowlers in India [experts opinion] who are struggling to get matches in IPL let alone National team so he wont be missed either 5. He was not considered good enough to be picked by his own UP side. Last time he played for them was a T20 in Oct 2010. He has not played any other format for his state side either.

1983-2011 Posted May 8, 2012 Posted May 8, 2012 thanks to Indian Express for their report, Kamran will probably get a contract from another franchise next year as PWI will probably release him as they trim down their squad and bring in new players.
Cricketics Posted May 8, 2012 Posted May 8, 2012 Recent article on Kamran Khan, the Shane Warne's champion bowler http://www.indianexpress.com/news/once-upon-a-time-in-ipl-with-pune-warriors/945973/0 Interesting really. I saw Lalit Modi share this on his Twitter so thought of sharing here. It's nothing bad to work in farms, but ya to be missing out on cricket, I can understand his situation. Especially the comments on him being called "Chucker"

Stuge Posted May 8, 2012 Posted May 8, 2012 Shane warne tweeted this today Shane Warne @warne888 Found it bizarre that Kamran is working on a farm and not playing IPL. To me a waste of talent, hope your ok buddy.. that why its always said not to run after money and focus on something else.he did the opposite .
1983-2011 Posted May 8, 2012 Posted May 8, 2012 that why its always said not to run after money and focus on something else.he did the opposite . how did he run after money, i thought the minimum salary for uncapped indian player was 10 lakhs which he has got from Pune, so if Royals did offer him a contract then it would have been the same amount if not more
maniac Posted May 8, 2012 Posted May 8, 2012 Our neighbours have such a rich tradition of producing bowlers of questionable actions,why can't we do the same...don't we have a lot of cultural similarities???
