Season 3 Draft Info

[Simon]

Just a little note, some of the new managers might not know, that by the end of the 1 week trading period after the draft you MUST have 2 wicketkeepers in your squad. But it is suggested you get the sufficent amount in the draft, as you might not be able to trade for another keeper after the draft.

 

[Mr. P]

What happens if you don't?

 

[Simon]

you will be forced to drop a player and are given a keeper from the remaining ones left after the draft.
The reason you need 2 keepers is in case one of them gets injured you then have a backup.

* Feels smug at already having 2 keepers (batting 45 in 4 day and 48 in One Day!) *

 

[Graham]

Also feels smug with R.Dravid and A.Schiller!

 

[Blewy]

**has that same feeling with Flower and Jayawardene**



Only after realising that Jayawardene is a keeper...

:O :O

 

[Neil Pickup]

Which Jayawardene?!!

 

[Rich2001]

Which Jayawardene?!!

Yes Neil the real Sri Lankan one

 

[Neil Pickup]

There are two real Sri Lankan Jayawardenes who have both played Tests and ODIs in the past 18 months.

Mahela (DPMD) Jayawardene is a top-class batsman who can't keep.

Prasanna (HAPW) Jayawardene makes Rob Key look like Don Bradman but is the indisputably the best keeper in the country.

Unfortunately we cannot yet distinguish between Jack Russell and Ashwell Prince
