I thought my choice of Dilshan as Trump would take me to the top. but I see you made the same choice, Barf. :)

It's tough at the top.

For the final I'll have eight players in action, you've got seven + a transfer. And there's only 65 points between us.... :eek:

I didn't trump Dilshan, but I did have him in my team, so I lost out on another 200 points.

Yes, you made an excellent choice for our trump yesterday. :D

For tomorrow's game I was thinking Afridi for trump, but I'm happy to stick with Dilshan if you prefer. :)

Afridi hasn't played like that for two years, i'll probably go with akmal or dilshan.

Or i'll wait to see what you do. ;)

Afrida has bowled well for about a year and a half now. You can bank that he will bowl well, his batting is a bonus. If dilshan or akmal fail with the bat you have nothing to fall back on.

Damn, stefan beat me to it, but I agree 100%.

Afridi is one of the best T20 bowlers around. He's second on the list of leading wicket-takers, with an economy rate of less than 6.

If he gets some quick runs, its a bonus

Dilshan is the 'safe' bet, I mean there is a reason why without the 96 knock he was the best batsmen.(which is why i chose him last game as TP) Afridi, Jayasuria, and co batsmen are inconsistent and with Afridi having peaked last game i reckon he will not next game. I am htinking Jayasuria might do somehting spectacular.. but its a chance i am not gonna take. I am like 1k behind :(

Well done Barfly. Two in a row for you.

We should've gone with Afridi as TP. ;)

See you for the Champions Trophy - you won't have it so easy there.

Thanks. It could easily have gone either way in the end. I was getting seriously worried when Jayasuriya started hitting some fours and again when he took a wicket. Luckily Sangakkara (who is now my new favourite intl. captain) took him off before he could do more damage. :)

Maybe, but krycor assured us Afridi peaked in the previous game, so we can blame him. :D

Can't wait. When does it start?
