    Pick the other Drafter's Drafts Draft

    I wasn't completely serious, but then I can now think of 2 other absolute legends satisfying this criterion, so maybe I wasn't far off the mark there :-O

    Pick the other Drafter's Drafts Draft

    speaking of, anyone seen the Garfield minus Garfield website? Much better than the original, IMO.

    Pick the other Drafter's Drafts Draft

    Have to say this is a master stroke by shady, not revealing the criteria as the game progresses. I did not foresee the fun (from an observer viewpoint at least) in watching the participants try to figure out the criteria in preparation for the rounds to come.

    Pick the other Drafter's Drafts Draft

    Too obvious. I'm going with "pick a comic strip character".

    Pick the other Drafter's Drafts Draft

    Drafter's drafts draft draft of ideas sent. :beer:

    Worst Shot You've Played

    Lies. This is Daemon's worst shot he's ever played.

    Indian Cricket Dhaba

    Yeah, Mahela Jayawardene, IIRC, although he wasn't the SL coach prior. He was just far too knowledgeable about the SL team, due to reasons of recency, for them to be comfortable with him fraternizing with the enemy. Not exactly the same situation, but close enough in principle. I don't see a...

    Indian Cricket Dhaba

    I think it's only fair that we insert a clause in our coaches contracts that they can't run off to coach a different international team for a couple of years after they've coached ours, especially if we're slated to play that other team soon after they switch.

    Indian Cricket Dhaba

    It's not all that much more, is it? Overseas tours would be the same as before and he'd be travelling all over the country during the home season which doesn't make things much better for family time if he's got kids in school. It's like a 5-10% improvement IMO for when matches are played at his...

    Pick the other Drafter's Drafts Draft

    I like dishing it out but not taking it, so can I contribute parameters but not participate in the actual draft?

    Indian Cricket Dhaba

    I liked Kirsten, but I can't deny that his quitting us because he wanted to spend time with family but then immediately taking up the Saffer gig didn't taint my appreciation for him to some degree. I mean, it doesn't change what he already accomplished for us, but it does make me want to give...

    Rejected Parody Thread Ideas

    Have you ever diddled yourself?

    My dislike isn't personal. I don't think he's demonstrated coaching experience. He's more suited to a Director role like Strauss.

    Indian Cricket Dhaba

    Yeah, I don't like the decision. Thankfully it's for 1 year, but then he'll probably have great success over the home season which might lead to an unsubstantiated (IMO) extension for the overseas tours.

    H.S Draft- combined sum of XI's test high scores not to exceed 1000 (negotiable)

    misal pav? :ph34r:

    Strangest place a cricket shot of yours has ended up?

    Cricket stuff that doesn't deserve its own thread

    This is a clip of Hawkeyes predicting both the deviated and non deviated paths (see the white and blue projections). It shows both missing the stumps, when in reality the baseman was clean bowled.

    Poll: ODI Draft - 50+ scores no more than 50 times, 4+ wickets no more than 10 times

    ODI Draft Thread: 50+ scores no more than 50 times, 4+ wickets no more than 10 times

    4 hour moratorium after the last pick of round 10, followed by a free-for-all, IMO.
