Only so many hours in a day to message fitness models on Instagram.

Can confirm

 

[Tugga27]

nah.

He will be a very very good player for us in the future.

Shows a lot of promise.

Just not 1.42 million worth of promise I think.

Maxwell sold for $2.5mil...fu** me dead. How stupid are these teams? Reputation matters more than performance

One of the10 best T20 players in world cricket.

He’s worth every cent

He's consistently underperformed in the IPL. Its not like he's had one poor season, he's had multiple poor seasons. It's a joke he went for that price.

I hope Delhi produce fast bouncy wickets.

Facing an attack of Rabada, Nortje, Ishant and Umesh is pretty intimidating. Backed up by Ashwin and Axar no less.

Ashwin with his height does well on bouncy pitches too.

lower order batsman who can win the game off his own bat. Yeah he has under performed but there is no one else like him in world cricket

Shahid Afridi, Adam Gilchrist, Ravindra Jadeja

Only one of those players is still active and Gilly would have opened.

Pollard probably the best point of comparison in the IPL currently I think.

 

[Nuggetz]

Maxwell 1 run and a misfield for 4. Also s**t bowling over but totally worth 2.5mill aye guys??? Hahahahaha

No one else making the money he makes from the performances he delivers

Afridi is still playing cricket but obvs ineligible for ipl

Came on to say this. 1 off 5, and only bowled 1 over that went for 9 runs.
I wonder what RCB are thinking

Afridi is still playing cricket but obvs ineligible for ipl

Plays for Multan Sultans (PSL), Galle Gladiators (LPL), and Qalanders (Abu Dhabi T10 League).
Okay, with about the same number of games, Mexwell is better with the bat, but struggles to keep up with the ball.
Afridi would be in the same value as Gayle, low priced for high quality and intensity in the IPL
Maxwell won't bat until 5. Pedikkal, Washington, Virat, and ABdV all above him. and will struggle to get a bowl behind Washington, Chahal, and Zampa.

Are we going to bump this thread every time someone has a bad game? It's pretty petty tbh.

No, if you noticed before, we have been saying Maxy is overpriced.

Come off it mate, if he scored a ton tonight you wouldn't be in here singing his praises, how he played tonight is completely irrelevant in regards to the IPL and his pricetag. It will all come down to how he performs in the IPL.

In which he has only performed well in one season (2014).
I'm not he isn't a valuable player, he just isn't worth 14.25cr. He's a 7 or 8 crore player

Probably somewhere in between the two figures, probably around the 9 to 11CR. Mind you I'd rather gamble on him than Jamison. The one thing I'll say with Maxwell is he needs a role, stop stuffing him around the lineup, just say Glenn you are batting 4, that's it. Do feel he's under bowled in the IPL though.

Pretty interesting Article

Did Royal Challengers Bangalore trick Delhi Capitals into buying Steven Smith?

In a video released by the franchise, Mike Hesson explains how RCB made a mock play to get the former Australia captain on board

basically saying - if you are middle order bat, you must be able to bowl. This is why Maxy goes for big $$$

I'd rather Smith at his price than Maxwell at his.

I daresay we'd have wanted Smith anyway - and we've been burned having Maxwell before as an underwhelming overseas player - so I'm not sure how we were tricked into anything tbh.

 

[Park cricketer]

Looks like Hesson made some 3D plans to ditch Smith on CSK to fend off competition for Maxwell but CSK actually ended up playing 4D chess and bumped up Maxwell's price too high so that it punched a hole in RCB's pocket.

Yeah they've edited that to look like they tricked everyone but in one of the auction trials Hesson pulls out of the bidding for Maxwell at 12.5 Crore. But in the actual auction he goes for 14.25 Crore.

I mean, you gotta appreciate RCB's optimism. After a game where their two most expensive recruits scored 3 runs off 5 balls and went wicketless for 56 runs after 4 overs, they post this tweet:

LMAO @ at people in the comments reminding RCB about Jamieson

 

[Fudge Nuggets]

The huge salaries for average at best players is nothing but a money laundering scam for team owners.
