when in reality the real reason for the pull out was he was not getting the big bucks to make the trip worthwhile for him.

About time someone from the IPL took a punt on him, now my IPL interest levels have raised from non existent to passing.

Woakes is available for full season. Colin too. KKR have got a opening bowlers replacement for Russ as well as both of them can bat, although not as dangerously as Russ with regards to his SR.

yeah coz commentating on games takes as much out of you physically as training every day and playing matches ...

Colin de Grandhomme has the highest batting strike rate of any professional Twenty20 player
Dre Russ = 164.71
De Grandhomme = 171.04
Effectively a like for like replacement, shrewd business by the KKR.

if he entered the auction not sure KP would even get a bid at the price he entered the Auction.

Especially when he said earlier he pulled out of the ipl because he didn't want to be away with his family during April and May and didn't want to do all the travelling.
So don't you find it weird that he pulled out of the IPL citing that reason yet he goes to the IPL for 3 weeks for Commentating duties which is likely to see him travelling a lot and be away for his family.
