    Awesome. It's great fun watching how some people sneak around some of the difficulties of certain clauses.

    This is the rule - if you **** up, you've still had your pick. Also, 12 hour timeouts are still the rule
    Oh for a strong arm and a walking stick

    Think everyone needs to be reminded of the 12 hour time limit.
    Great draft so far though, and the different time zones does factor into these things.

    Yeh, true, I was just being a whiny prick.

    And this draft is an awesome challenge. Really having to think and re-think strategy.

    This means that Howe has roughly 2 1/2 hours from now which will be about 10:30 am London time, I think.

    Incidently, does he know about this new development? All the previous drafts in the Draft League have been 24 hour time limits. Might have to cut him some slack.

    Unless I am mistaken the drafts were always 12 hours.

    True!

    I was all set to take Donald and one great batsman of our era but you picked Donald and it made me re-think my strategies.

    Yeah, I'm working out a list of guys who are good for each clause (HS on debut is a bitch, as we all know), and as the best options keep getting taken - Archie Jackson was my #1 for about four different clauses - I've had to reshuffle my whole XI.

    Which is actually good fun. So much strategy in who to pick next.

    Every draft league season has had a 12 hour team limit so far

    Apparently Season 1 was 12 hours, but Season 2 had a 24 hour limit per pick. I've always assumed 24 hours after that

    But I'm all for 12 hours!
