Could always run one of these again shortly. I was actually thinking next time, the more people the better and I might put some restrictions on it, so we do indeed get some unusual looking XIs..
Signing in already

First Class Debutant
Yes. You have to finish your team with these 10 final picks.

Do people risk it all and potentially finish with just 8 players and 3 nuffies.
Do they try and sabotage opponents?

EDIT - I've also decided that for team balance reasons, if you end up with 11 but say only 1 quick YOU can if you like sub a player out for the potential chance of getting lucky with the sheep.
Lets say, at the end I get 10 players overall and need 1 but that 1 is an opener. Will the sheep be an opener or it can be anyone?

Wow, I can make an ATG XI out of players not in that list and that will be as good as any.

Nope. Its random. Ive written 20 players down in an order. The first person to submit there team this round is getting the first person from the list. The reason why? Youve had 25 chances to find 11 spots, its a risk vs reward exercise.

Surely if you're out in nature's majesty living real life you can find the half an hour or so to get to the top of that cliff and trawl thru cricinfo and the previous choices and your last sent email to Nufan and make your selection, can't you?

****! :happy:
