Guyana has the weakest team on

Guyana has the weakest team on Paper, not one penetrative fast bowler nor any match winning batsman, is it, they are not willing to pay the big money or they are unable to attract better players?

Highest paid players for Warriors:

1. Imran Tahir - $160k
2. Hety - $140K or so
3. Shamsi - $120k or so

Smith and Shepherd were fourth and fifth round picks for them. 100k and 80K I think.

isnt that already more than the salary cap for a team?

what did they retain Motie for?

why would i retain Tahir for 160 k Shamsi 140 they are good spinners yes, but they absolutely can't bat, in t20 you need your tailenders to be able to contribute one of them is ok not both the other money could have been put to better use

Its the same for all teams.. Think for the first 10 slots in the squad they getting paid between 160K-40K and the last 5 slots they getting between 20k-4k.

Motie is small change to dem boys.. he was a round 13 signing or so.. probably about 15k or less.. think Sterling getting like 40k

Fellas like Beaton and so getting about 4-5K.

if the salary cap is 545 plus as read on a thread, how is TnT able to afford all those high-profile players

Warriors banking on the spin friendly conditions at Providence.. Shakib will share some of Shamsi money because he will be leaving the tournament early.

Asia Cup end 11th September so Shakib will be available at least for matches in Guyana.

whether they reach the finals or not only time will tell, but i highly doubt i really hope i am wrong, my point is the team has no player who drives fear in the opposition, all the other teams have at least one

 
Warriors 2022-08-31 17:07:54 

In reply to bird

Hetymer
Sterling
Klassen
Shamzi
Shepherd
Smith
Ingram
Tahir

All the above can be match winner.
