Mystery Draft (ODI XI and Test XI, 79-09)

NUFAN

Y no Afghanistan flag
This has been such a good draft. No BS, everyone so quick, should always only accept people who are online heaps. :clapping:

English = Scum of the Earth?

Probably.

And to make it even better, technically this was two drafts. :cool:

I really want to do an ever more mystery black sheep draft Athlai, I really do.

I reckon Precam would be up for it too.

I've been wanting to do a draft of just current players, but have 10 or so people in it to stretch people's knowledge of domestic cricket and make people think about who'd do well in a level somewhere between First Class cricket and Test cricket. I'm not sure many people would be up for it though and there have been a few complaints about the drafts so I haven't bothered starting a thread.

Seems a good idea. I am up.

BTW, can I select my Test minnow?

Can the home ground be selected anywhere or just in the country you've selected three players from? And will you allow separate grounds for the Test and ODI sides?

Yes it can be anywhere and ... undecided. I want to say no just one ground but I'll see what others think.

The sheer volume of them and how much space they take up in Cricket Chat.
Wow. Would love to know which precious little sooks were upset about what's been consistently around three threads on the front page. Surely they need to harden the **** up.

Sorry for delay guys.

Tests: Andre Nel (RSA). Sorely tempted to take Brett Schultz with his killer average, but went for Nel instead. Not a bad fourth seamer - adds a bit of "mad ****" factor to my team.

ODIs: Umer Gul (sp?) (Pak). Meh, want five genuine bowlers with Symonds as sixth bowler. Gul seems the best option left from Pakistan.
