Are we waiting on anyone?

Yeah waiting on couple of them.

Meanwhile @kingkallis please message me your 3 options for round 1 in priority order. If anyone feels adding KK changes the dynamics of Round 1 picks feel free to alter your picks or bid values.

KK and his draft hacks are going to ruin everything for me.

 

[Himannv]

Now that KK is in it's time to get serious and spend all my money in round 1 itself.

 

[kingkallis]

Sent!

 

[anil1405]

Just waiting on @Red Hill to send his picks and then we can move on to the next round.

 

[Red]

Sorry, have sent to you

[ataraxia]

HB - AB de Villiers (500) BR 500

wow

 

[JOJOXI]

wow

Glad I didn't even bother going in for him although seeing that some of the successful bids for some of picks weren't as high as I expected I was probably a tad too conservative myself I think with choices.

I bid 250k for him; didn't think I could risk more, lol.

Oh wow yeah, guess there are no regrets of not going a bit more aggressive with your bid at least. Have a good finisher in Klusener instead too. Feared the South Africans would attract major attention, missed out on Waqar Younis by 9k and Shakib by almost 50k

Round 2 stipulation: Pick a player who has played a minimum of 100 ODIs as designated wicket keeper.

Choose your 3 options IN ORDER OF PRIORITY.

Here is the list of these players with matches as keeper mentioned in bold:

Remember, if all the three players you pick are outbid by other drafters you will be given an option of picking a keeper who is more than his perceived value.

 

[ankitj]

I bid 243 for ABD

 

[Himannv]

I wanted AB as well, but I wasn't even remotely close with my bid

 

[weeman27bob]

As much as I wanted him, I knew someone would bid silly money for him so I didn't even bother.

 

[Himannv]

Some excellent players went for very low amounts there.

 

[kingkallis]

I am pretty surprised to grab Donald at $49. I honestly didnt think I'd be able to pick even one.

 

[anil1405]

@honestbharani to explain the reasoning behind his $500 bid.

 

[honestbharani]

"I am mad that CSK lost" rage bid.
