[Teuton]

Now I'm not sure if @Michaelf7777777 can make the budget
Edit: would need a bowler with higher wpm and average than Amarnath

 

[Teuton]

a time out to finish R10, and no errors in my estimates have been raised so these people can pick:
@ataraxia (r10)
@Fuller Pilch
@honestbharani
@Pothas

also @Magrat Garlick can go ahead if picking someone averaging 52 or over with the bat.

we just might knock this over today, and if anyone has an idea for the next draft i encourage them to post it

 

[AndrewB]

Bowling average at least 38 and at least 21 more than batting average, and at least 1.88 wickets per match.
Plenty of players fit those criteria... finding one you want in your side is a bit more challenging...

 

[Pothas]

Frank Tyson

Jack Hobbs
Matthew Hayden
Kumar Sangakkara
Brian Lara
Dudley Nourse
Inzamam-ul-Haq
Adam Gilchrist
Richard Hadlee
Hedley Verity
Frank Tyson
Glenn McGrath

Who needs 5 bowlers?

 

[Teuton]

I would say every team.
But this is the exception that proves the rule.

@JOJOXI can pick now too

Haha that's one of the most non-bowling top sevens I've ever seen picked in a draft.

 

[ataraxia]

Jock Cameron

1) Virender Sehwag / (-49)
2) WG Grace* / o (-32, +26)
3) Peter May / (-46)
4) Allan Border / (-50)

6) AB de Villiers / (-50)
7) Jock Cameron + / (-30)
8) Ray Lindwall o / (+23)
9) Clarrie Grimmett o (+24)
10) John Snow o (+26)
11) Waqar Younis o (+23)

Balance: 15

 

[ataraxia]

Haha that's one of the most non-bowling top sevens I've ever seen picked in a draft.

tbh Hobbs was a decent part-timer but reluctant to bowl

 

[Teuton]

Now, if you next get a batsman who only averages 15 that will push Lindwall into your top 7.
So i think you need a bowler/allrounder who averages at least 32 with the ball (edit: ), more than 0.41 WPM, and 11 runs less than his bowling average with the bat when it comes to your R11 pick. That way Grace, and his unhelpful bowling average of 26, isn't your 5th bowler.
Tbh i think you can make it anytime now since JOJOXI is the only other who needs an extra bowler and he can pick anyone who averages 23 or higher.

edit: and michael needs a bowler as we worked out too that averages over 38 with the ball, and 21 less than his bowling average with the bat

Don't worry, I've got it under control. So I can pick now?

 

[Teuton]

haha great. yeah just do it. im keen to finish the draft today.

Well played. Had you already crunched the numbers or were my rapid checks useful?

 

[JOJOXI]

I would say every team.

@JOJOXI can pick now too

Will pick in the next 90mins when I have a bit more time to compare choices

 

[ataraxia]

Well played. Had you already crunched the numbers or were my rapid checks useful?

It was my plan from the start of the draft to get Grace and Hazare, but I wasn't sure of the precise numbers for most of it.

 

[Line and Length]

"Who needs 5 bowlers?"

The brief requested 5 bowlers, to only pick 4 and to add a batsman with a huge bowling average is a clever manipulation of the rules. I admire your strategy but when it comes to voting I'll probably look for a more traditionally balanced side.
