Good to see so many English players being signed up as internationals

Yeah it's always good to see international talent, I think there will be more signed due to teams being allowed to play two international players per match.

The Indian cricket board doesn't allow them to play, probably due to the fact that they can't control it. And last year the Pakistan cricket board pulled out Afridi after he was signed.

Yes but he has an Australian citizenship, which is why he is representing Australia A currently on their tour of South Africa and Zimbabwe.

So far they look the best team
Title: Re: BBL 2013/14
Post by: Jacky on July 25, 2013, 02:26:12 PM
But any team with Malinga does, he is in my eyes the best limited overs bowler playing.

Still plenty of internationals too be signed, and this normally happens towards the end of the contract period.

Is Luke Wright not considered an international player for Melbourne?  Does he have some Australian blood?
Title: Re: BBL 2013/14
Post by: Jacky on July 25, 2013, 04:40:42 PM
 :D :D I created the list myself so thats my mistake, although if he does we will claim him, the more the merrier!!

I'm disappointed Gibbs hasn't resigned with the Scorchers, always a big fan of his. Watching Notts v Lancashire last night, I wish Hales was coming to Perth too!

I'm really excited that Hales is playing for my local team, will be good to get down to watch him smash some on the small boundaries of the Adelaide Oval!
