Trust me, it's not that bad. Imagine if you had to pick between Waqar and Dev, like I have to choose between Grace and Hutton. It would do your head in.

We know who got dealt a difficult hand. So when it comes to voting time this will be factored in and extra kudos will be given to those people who created a coherent team against the odds.

After all, this is not like a typical draft where each person is 100% responsible for who they pick.

just for kicks, I've thrown out an arbitrary rating to assess team strength - (lowest totals are strongest) - anyone feel free to state any changes (I'm not the spock of cricket players) and i'll update in future lists
iby = -1, it's bradman yeah
atg = 1, all time great (always mentioned in greatest discussions)
mtg = 2, most time great (mentioned in greatest in certain circumstances)
sta - 3, some times awesome (get's mentioned because of unsustained brilliance)
gok - 4, good ok (played a few games for their country)
jgt - 5, just got there (just made country team or was in the running)
ays - 6, are you serious (you poor c...)

(yep! - slow day at work)

Apologies if I jumped the Gun. I had thought a few different posters had randomised the previous rounds, but in looking back, they were just restating a list for progress status and that only Red Hill (who made this draft) has actually given the random lists. Should we wait and let him choose again. I'm such a noob :(

Superhuman effort by Victor Ian on previous page :thumbs_up


Not so sure about generating Round 7 though. Happy to restart the round if Red Hill wants to make his own list.
