shelsey nicks it at the death clap

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Wed 29 Feb 2012, 9:01 pm

I got
Umar Akmal for 250K
Andrew McDonald for 175K

by **Mat** Wed 29 Feb 2012, 9:01 pm

Quite happy with the two players I picked up there, relatively cheap.

One more target.

by Guest Wed 29 Feb 2012, 9:01 pm

im happy i have £760k left for thursday and friday

by Mad for Chelsea Wed 29 Feb 2012, 9:02 pm

so I got Botha, Finch and Hassan. Total of 325k, pleased with that Very Happy

surprised Finch didn't attract a bit more, U25 with a great T20 record. Hassan is good as I needed a death bowler and Botha is a very useful T20 player.

reckon you've done pretty well there Very Happy

by Guest Wed 29 Feb 2012, 9:03 pm

£765k left for thursday and friday, got chandimal today

cya around 4pm tomorrow.

by Gregers Wed 29 Feb 2012, 9:03 pm

I was tempted by Finch and Hassan

An interesting point is that Afghanistan are one of only two nations who will have sold 100% of their represented players in the auction. The other is England

by Shelsey93 Wed 29 Feb 2012, 9:04 pm

Kohli

Literally got him by a couple of seconds - didn't send me to the 'another post has been made while you were posting' screen but after I posted Auction Shut had come up as well.

Never expected to go past 400k though... to free up some funds Mr. Goodwin will be released

by Mad for Chelsea Wed 29 Feb 2012, 9:05 pm

great auction today, lots of bargains and some real quality. Went with the star quality yesterday so today went more with the cheaper bargains.

gregers, when you have a minute I'd appreciate it if you could give me some prices in the releases (assuming you've finished your tea Wink

)

by Pete C (Kiwireddevil) Wed 29 Feb 2012, 9:07 pm

I'm pretty happy with McCullum at £375k, fills a gap very nicely.

by hodge Wed 29 Feb 2012, 9:09 pm

just back in my flat for 10 mins, top man Gregers cheers

think its a good thing i wasn't bidding myself had a few cider

and when i say a few, its a uni version of a few Wink

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Wed 29 Feb 2012, 9:10 pm

Very happy with Umar Akmal at £250,000
Under 21 and can wicket keep as well

McDonald is a solid all rounder who adds experience to my middle order and can finish off my innings's well

that was a remarkably coherent post for a man who'd had a few cider

by Gregers Wed 29 Feb 2012, 9:11 pm

Oops sorry MFC, yep finished tea a while back. King Prawn stir fry Very Happy

I think you got your bid in by about 3 seconds shelsey!

Im surprised I got Taylor without anyone else bidding! And getting Tahir was a bonus as needed a spinner kind of drastically

And good man Hodge, made sure I got your man

by Gregers Wed 29 Feb 2012, 9:13 pm

Anyone looking for a great number 3 who is also kolpak then Goodwin is available for £250k...

Is it just me who has noticed that Marshy is getting together one heck of a side?!

by Marsh Wed 29 Feb 2012, 9:21 pm

Cheers Gregs, I'm pleased with how its coming together, I've only got one spot left to fill now, it would have been Botha but hey-ho

by Gregers Wed 29 Feb 2012, 9:26 pm

Bishoo tomorrow Marsh?
