Experience Draft

I've just had another new idea for a test match draft with players being eligible for different rounds based on the number of test matches that they have played over the course of their careers. Their will be 11 rounds with the teams being put to a forum vote and possibly a sim.

Rounds

1. 1-10 tests
2. 11-20 tests
3. 21-30 tests
4. 31-40 tests
5. 41-50 tests
6. 51-60 tests
7. 61-70 tests
8. 71-80 tests
9. 81-100 tests
10. 101-120 tests
11. 121+ tests

I will put up the draft order after we've got all the people playing. New orders will be set on rounds 1, 3, 5, 7, 9 and 11 with the reverse of the order of the previous round for even numbered rounds. I think this will work well with up to ten contenders so please sign up if you are interested.

Sign up List

2. Agent TBY
3. marc 71178
4. The Sean
5. Noble One
6. fredfertang
7. Pothas
8. metallics2006
9. Marcuss
10. Blakus

First up I will select Barry Richards.

One of the best first class cricketers to ever grace the South African, England and Australian domestic competitions. Fantastic record in his four test matches, a player who was good enough to make Sir Don Bradman's greatest ever team. WAG
