I was hoping it was Shoaib Malik!

sorry

Not sure why I didnt add him to either auctions!

I need to wait to see what CF says about my offer to him...

no deal, dilshan is better than chandimal

Helpful mate, why don't you try negotiating.

Anyways you've decided to get rid of dilshan and I offered u a wickie which u desperately need!

dilshan is better than chandimal though gregers....

I didnt say he wasnt.

Hence the Negotiate part!

alright calm down, i will get back to you..

Dilshan for Chandimal + Harbajhan.

I cant afford to lose Harby due to the Indian rule.

Vince (or Finn) and Chandimal for Dilshan?

no deal, not keen on finn, and im not sure vince would get in my side, with the overseas rule.

Hamid Hassan and Chandimal?

that tempts me, i will get back to ya.

just to be clear, if you want both Karthik and Ryder for VDM then it's no. If it's one of the two, I'll do Ryder for Karthik. Sorry about late response

no deal sorry..

what about

Dilshan for Chandimal + Dhawan?

I cant afford to lose an Indians under 25

Chandimal and Butler?

no deal

i would need a quality batsman as well as chandimal..

Vince?

na i said quality lol

Vince is quality

What about Prior for Dilshan and another?

no chance

Dilshan for Chandimal + someone else ( i need a good quality indian batsman)

Mandeep Singh is available...

What about a direct swap of Prior for Dilshan?

no because that would be an awful offer for me.

Hardly.

Prior is a great wickie and a good t20 opener. Plus you've made it clear you want to get rid of Dilshan.

Anyways, can you make a list of the players you would be prepared to add to Chandimal for the deal.

dilshan is a better batsman than prior, he also bowls, and he can keep, therefore he is a better player lol

Then why are you so determined to get rid of him?!

And as a keeper Prior >> Dilshan

gregers i wanna get rid of him for a better play, and prior isnt better than dilshan..

i never said prior wasnt a better keeper than dilshan, i just said that, dilshan is an option, with the gloves, he also bowls, and is a better batsman

Shakib + Another for Rohit

Chandimal and Harpreet for Dilshan?

gregers, if I let Karthik go, I need a good Indian spinner in return (i.e Harbajan). I'll do Ryder + Karthik + Another (gave you a list of guys I could trade) for VDM + Harby

MFC I'll wait until after I get my tactics up as need Harby this week (and you've already done your tactics)

Tempted tho...

I haven't confirmed my tactics yet I don't think, unless I was sleep-walking, but I had put my probable team up, and haven't changed my mind about it. No probs, we can deal after this week's matches

no deal i dont rate harpreet singh

lol i rate tendulkar though :p

Dilshan for Chandimal + Van der Merwe?

No deal, VDM + Chandimal > Dilshan

Chandimal + Yardy for Dilshan?

no deal, yardy isnt the sort of player i need in my squad..

Yet you wanted VDM? Both are Left arm spinning all rounders...

van der merwe is much better than yardy.

What about

Dilshan + Woakes for Chandimal + Van der Merwe?

Yes he is.

But VDM and Chandimal are worth more together than Dilshan.

I really do not need Woakes...

im running out of offers lol

i dont know who else we could do.

Dilshan for Chandimal and Butler and Vince?

no deal

dont need butler, and i think vince is overrated in t20

Hamid Hassan and Chandimal? Maybe and Mandeep Singh?

How about:

Hassan and Chandimal for Woakes and Dilshan?

was tempted by hassan, but realised i dont really need him.

mandeep singh only averages 13, and his strike rate is nothing specal

what about

Dilshan + Suman + roy for Chandimal + Manoj Tiwary?

Dont want to lose Tiwary after taking an age to get hold of him!

Dilshan and Woakes for Chandimal, Hassan and Finn?

i dont need hassan or finn though

What sort of player do you need?

Dilshan + Woakes + Suman for Chandimal + Harpreet singh?
