[AndrewB]

In case there's a flurry of picks while I'm AFK again:

Order for Round 9 will be:
Teuton
SillyCowCorner1
ankitj
mr_mister
trundler
Red Hill
Michaelf7777777
morgieb
Test_Fan_Only
AndrewB
fredfertang

 

[mr_mister]

Should we skip Sillycow til he returns?

 

[morgieb]

Herb Sutcliffe (England)

 

[Teuton]

Should we skip Sillycow til he returns?

He's 2 picks behind already so i dont see any point waiting until he catches those up.

 

[Test_Fan_Only]

Glenn Turner (New Zealand)

Sorry it took too long for me to make a decision, overthinking it.

 

[Test_Fan_Only]

- Glenn Turner - New Zealand
-
- Wally Hammond - UK
-
- Jacques Kallis - South Africa
- Clyde Walcott - Barbados
- Keith Miller - Australia
- Imran Khan - Pakistan
-
- Michael Holding - Jamaica
- Sonny Ramadhin - Trinidad and Tobago

 

[Red]

Ranji (India)

This is a good pick as it is, but imagine if we were running this draft pre-1932. Ranji probably would have been first picked!

 

[mr_mister]

So I would say it's Fred > Teuton > ankitj with SCC seemingly MIA

 

[Teuton]

Heath Streak (Zimbabwe)

 

[ankitj]

Virender Sehwag (India)

[Test_Fan_Only]

Virender Sehwag (India)

I should have taken Sehwag instead of Miller in Rd. 7 and then I wanted to in Rd.8 but did not want to run out New Zealanders. I think I am going to be in trouble come the last round.

 

[trundler]

Miller was an excellent pick this late. Can't believe I wasted my Australian pick that early lol

 

[mr_mister]

Carl Hooper (Guyana)

 

[trundler]

Archie Jackson (Scotland)

 

[mr_mister]

Can't have Hutton and Jackson sorry.

England and Scotland are both Great Britain for the sake of this draft

 

[trundler]

Scotland have their own international team and scarcely a Scot has played test cricket tho. Wales is combined with England; Scotland isn't.
