I have $712k before the update and my current expenses are only $143k (wages, ground and academies). If a 20% increase in sponsorship is what we are getting then I should only be short $40k - $45k, which I can cover quite easily from gate takings.

I posted them in order of nearest deadlines. Wardlaw finishes in 4 hours.

Master Q · July 04, 2011, 05:36:01 PM

I'm going for:

Peter Whitting

William Wardlaw

Ishant Karthik

Rolf Elijzen

Looking for an Opening Batsmen.

Bazinga · July 04, 2011, 05:37:22 PM

Good openers are hard to find and most of their prices are inflated. Most of these guys on your list have poor secondaries and may affect their performance.

Master Q · July 04, 2011, 05:38:42 PM

Well there 20...

Firstly, Wardlaw and Whitting are quite good, Ishant Karthik is a bowler, and Elijzen will be tough to get :P AR with Opening talent is a dream come true.

High wage. My spec/spec batsman only has wage of $10.6k and has better secondaries along with boundary hitter talent.

Cap fielding
Accom Endurance (same)
Accom Power

Nice player though if you can get for the price you want. Will need to work on his secondaries

Found 4 promising prospects already 8).

Salman Abba - Wonder if He'd slip :P.
The back up option - http://www.fromthepavilion.org/player.htm?playerId=494166
2 level difference in Tech for Salman so he may slip a little lower than expected.
Well spotted HP .. he could go cheap but the little red star next to his name may inflate his price a bit. A very high rating for a 20yr old :o

I hate that little star when buying >:(. Pushed the first keeper I saw to 400k ::). Saw Prem but don't want to get in a bidding war with you Baz ;). I'd be happy if I can land either for under 100k but may stretch that :P.

Just a thing on that guy. He's a RFS with a slower ball, how much slower does he want to bowl!?!?
