Delhi Daredevils have bought new Australian batting sensation David Warner and new Test all-rounder Andrew MacDonald while Deccan Chargers have roped in another Ryan Harris, also of Australia, for the 2008-09 Indian Premier League that kicks off on April 10.
With the number of overseas players in the squad permitted to be 10 in the forthcoming IPL season, these three up and coming overseas players were bought by the two IPL franchises during the one month-long trading window that closed Thursday, a media release said on Friday.
allowing 21 days for 42 day tournament for platers under its contract???? and only 28 days for players NOT under contract???? do we really need english players??? or are the english players jokers in the circus??
John Dyson is looking for a spin bowler to make a big impact on the West Indies' home Test series against England, starting next month.
The West Indies coach is expecting the series to be "tense, hard-fought" cricket, but he believes his side can gain an edge if they can identify and select a match-winning spin bowler.
"The series is a further opportunity for a spinner to make a major contribution to the bowling effort," he said.

Good Morning Anurag. (After a long period but follwed your messages)
A spinner for West Indies never happened for a long period. May this John Dyson (not heared or seen, only through your post) at least spin the ball with control, the star and all other may come true after that.

But Aus is missing a player like D.Martyn in ODI. They should try B.Hodge.

Yes, Botha is captaining. Now M.Johnson is back, so 270 plus chasing without G.Smith is not looking possible. Hilfanaus is inexperience. In first ODI A Morkel took SA home by hitting 18-20 runs in Hilfanaus last over. But it's not happen everyday.
