Ashes Draft

[Blakus]

The 90's were an era of Australian dominance. Out of 27 ashes matches, they won 16, drew 6 and lost just 5. So which series to pick? It came down to a single moment, when a certain chubby legspinner bowled his first ever delivery in an ashes test. It set the tone for the next 10 years, and for me, is the defining moment of Australia vs England in the 90's.

For round 2, the series is the 1993 ashes.

 

[Himannv]

Very nice. Lots of good picks in there.

 

[Teja.]

Micheal Clarke just so I have a scapegoat for whenever my team loses.

There goes the other 'keeper. Damn. After resolving to pick keepers and allrounders early, looks like I'm starting with the batsmen. Still Taylor, Atherton, Boon & Slater left this round.

 

[NUFAN]

With a batting average of over 40 and a bowling average under 23, a terrific all rounder...

[kingkallis]

Do we have to pick players as per the particular SERIES performance only or whole career?
