[mr_mister]

Teuton, trundler and pothas

 

[Line and Length]

I can't expect a vote with a pace attack that comprises Chatfield, Berrington and Mortaza.

 

[Himannv]

Voted for Pothas, FP, and Teuton but it was a tough choice and I spent quite a lot of time considering it. CricAddict in particular was very close to getting my vote.

 

[Fuller Pilch]

I can't expect a vote with a pace attack that comprises Chatfield, Berrington and Mortaza.

Chatfield was world class, but the other two are quite a lot weaker.

 

[CricAddict]

Some huge names like Kallis, Ponting and Symonds got unpicked due to debuting in a competitive era. Any other big names missing out?

 

[CricAddict]

Kallis especially is quite surprising since SA players were available only from 92 onwards and so there would have been a smaller pool compared to Australia.

Lots of ATG Australians - Hussey, Watson, Lee, Bracken, Warner, and Finch are missing. Was surprised that some of Faf Du Plessis, Roger Twose, Chris Cairns, Jacob Oram, and Chris Gayle weren't picked. I thought about Dravid as a possible keeping option and thought he might be picked.

I was very close to picking Graham Gooch and Damian Martyn instead of Matthew Hayden and David Gower.

 

[CricAddict]

@ankitj @trundler @honestbharani if you guys can also please vote, we can close this voting.

 

[CricAddict]

@mr_mister when do you plan to announce results?

 

[Daemon]

How did CricAddict end up with the #1 & #2 fast bowlers of all time as well as arguably the #2 batsman of all time

 

[mr_mister]

because Marshall is not a priority pick in ODIs

 

[CricAddict]

because Marshall is not a priority pick in ODIs

Yes. He is slightly underrated in draft circles but rated quite well in odis too elsewhere. He actually ranks as 8th best bowler in icc all-time odi rankings..

 

[CricAddict]

@mr_mister when do you plan to announce results?

@mr_mister can you respond to this too please?

 

[mr_mister]

congratulations, you won

 

[Line and Length]

@CricAddict - Congratulations.
@mr_mister - Thanks for an interesting draft.
@Bitmap - Commiserations on having the same number of votes as me.

 

[Fuller Pilch]

Congrats @CricAddict

Thanks @mr_mister for a good draft

 

[CricAddict]

Thank you @Line and Length and @Fuller Pilch
Thanks @mr_mister for an excellent draft idea and running it well.

 

[Himannv]

Congratulations to the winner!

Well run draft mr-mr.
