Real time draft- tonight, here.

Sign up if you want. Will start this at 8 pm Australian EDT tonight (Saturday).


Rules

* Each team must contain one player from each of the following countries:
- Australia
- NZ OR Sri Lanka
- SA
- WI
- England
- Pakistan
- India

* Any player who has played at least one test can be selected.

* Bradman can be chosen, but the player choosing him forfeits his/her choice in the next round (just to make it fun!)

* Each player has only 5 minutes to select a player after the player before him/her has selected.

* Will run it if we have at least 5 participants. Participants to remain on line for the duration of the draft.

* I'll randomise an order before we start and then it'll reverse for R2 etc.



Let me know with a quick post if you're interested, and we'll kick it off this evening.

Like the rules (especially the Bradman clause, one that I had floated to Jager for prev drafts), notice no Sri lanka, wonder if that can be added to the N.Z selection.
