Cricket Team Draft - ODI edition

[Matt79]

Will be interesting to see if you get a keeper batsmen that can open. I guess Chanderpaul can open you could have a keeper batting as low as 8 if you want.

Pretty sure I can guess who he's going to pick - should take him next just to **** with his team.

 

[Matt79]

Is someone able to replace Jamee? Poor guy's had a bad week to have his net down. If we can get a replacement, they should make Jamee's pick now, plus the two extra to catch his team up.

 

[chaminda_00]

What his side I'll finish it off and someone post the players taken too.

 

[Matt79]

Don't you already have a team in this?

 

[Somerset]

I don't mind taking over Jamee's team, unless someone else is desperate to play a part in one of the CW drafts (given I've been involved in the other three).

 

[chaminda_00]

Don't you already have a team in this?

No, wanted to let others have go in the mickey mouse format. Somerset can have his spot if he wants.

 

[Somerset]

Sorry I too thought you had a team in this Chaminda, you got in first so I'll let you have the spot.

Is this correct?

 

[chaminda_00]

Jamee Current side

Herschelle Gibbs
Virender Sehwag
Dean Jones
Shoaib Akhtar
Michael Holding
Glenn McGrath

I'm going to have to do about half an hour to an hour reseach as I know nothing about ODIs and haven't followed this.

 

[NUFAN]

Yeah that looks correct. Means you get 4 picks, the side you've got is excellent so far..

 

[Matt79]

Damn, four picks at this stage when everyone is sweating on their next one being available!

Although obviously it would have been more advantageous to have taken them in their proper order...

 

[Somerset]

Funny thing is Jamee/Chaminda's side could end up one of the strongest, the six so far are all of a high quality and selecting another four in one go should allow Chaminda to balance the side well.

 

[chaminda_00]

I'm struggling hardcore to find quality players

 

[chaminda_00]

Mohammad Azharuddin
Ajay Jadeja
Arjuna Ranatunga
Chris Harris

Top three are all a bunch of cheats but brillant batsmen and great specialist captain.

- Azhar lived in shadow of Tendulkar for most of his career but had a brillant record at 4. Great slipper as well.
- Jadeja s/r put me off at first, but after having a closer look he has a very good s/r at 4-6. It was as an opener where he struggled to get going.
- Rantunga was a brillant finisher and will slot in nicely at six. Underated OD batsmen for mine, but mainly selected as specialist captain. Love the guy
- Our bowling attack has a lot of strike power. So Harris slots in nicely as the middle over specialist. Handy lower order bats as well.

Just need a keeper to finish things off.

[Matt79]

Nice picks, especially at this late stage - had looked closely at all of those guys and come close to picking them. Was seriously considering Arjuna for my next pick...

 

[Matt79]

Corrin is up.

Ah good timing, am on lunch...

Catch the game today did we?

Goughy is the next cab off the rank I believe.
