Any idea when I can expect to make my debut? (I probably sound as though I am being impatient, But i'm just naturally curious)

And how are we looking for the title this year? :cool: :w00t:

With half the normal side away on international side...Monday, most likely.

Think we've got a decent chance in OD, good bowling attack, good batsmen. FC it's looking a bit weak, but if we all pull together, could get to a final at least.

I put my average as 51 and my strikerate as 63.. will that mean I suck at FC, and am good at OD?
Considering the strike-rates of some of the players, I'd say you'd fit right in. We'll see, though.

Which players for CW Red play international?
Marc J Robbins (marc71178), Ian Markus (slats4ever), Zaid Ghansar (zghansar) and Dave J Watt (AUST_HITMAN) are selected for the VB Series. Others may be selected for Tests - Kyle S Wright (Mister Wright) is probably a given at least, I hope to get a look in, and David Kennett is also in with a good shot.

May I take this opportunity to urge all Reds players to support the CW International XI as well in the VB series thread (whenever the series starts)

I personally don't think you need to hope.
I've placed a bet on you playing the next test ;) (they don't call me "Gleeson" for nothing :p )

That'd be confidential. ;)

However, look at the squad, then subtract the internationals and the tripe bowlers, and I think you'd end up with eleven men. ;)
