T20I draft

[ataraxia]

@JOJOXI: you could scrap the country rule rather than the era rule - that might work.

@Himannv

Was going to continue with existing rules in OP (pending any more comments in next couple hours - if it is just Himannv opposed) but happy to do that if Himannv is happy with that and other drafters are happy

Will slate a tentative start time of 9pm Saturday (UK time) so about 22.5 hours from now. With Fuller Pilch 1st pick I believe 9pm UK time equates to 9am Sunday in Wellington.

Have done draft order for Round 1 just now just so people have a bit of a heads up but draft won't start before 9pm Saturday (UK time). Himannv has stated his participation is dependent on less restrictions so depending on what happens in next 23 hours he may or may not be in the draft but have included him for now and will remove him from draft order and move HonestBharani and Teuton up a spot later if anything.

Draft Order for Round 1 is as below - Round 2 order is the reverse of this

1. Fuller Pilch
2. mr_mister
3. Boybrumby
4. anil1405
5. KingKallis
6. JOJOXI
7. Himannv***
8. HonestBharani
9. Teuton

Anyone else who wants to join can join between now and the final pick of Round 1 - joining the end of the Round 1 draft order

 

[Himannv]

Ok, will go ahead and play.

 

[JOJOXI]

Okay so to confirm playing with existing rules minus those surrounding international teams. Have copied existing rules and crossed out one that no longer applies

Rules would be as below
* At least 4 players in each squad with debuts from 2005 to 31 December 2009
* At least 5 players in each squad with debuts from 1 January 2010 to present day.
* All Players must have played at least one International T20
* All squads must have at least 8 International teams represented with no more than 2 players in each squad from the same International team


@Fuller Pilch can pick from now (but clock will not start ticking until 9pm UK time - 2 hours time and no timeouts until 16 hours after that - 1pm Sunday UK time.)

 

[Fuller Pilch]

Might as well start with Chris Gayle (debut 2006)

[BoyBrumby]

Virat Kohli, please.

@anil1405

 

[JOJOXI]

Maxwell

Wasn't expecting him to be picked so early but makes sense - has a good T20I record, impressive average for such an explosive batsman and can bowl a few overs too

 

[anil1405]

Rashid Khan

 

[Teuton]

Yeah and a top fielder. Low key an ATG t20 player

 

[honestbharani]

Jasprit Bumrah

 

[JOJOXI]

@Teuton with a double pick unless another player joins between now and you picking
