This is probably as high as I get - I think I put too many eggs in my Natwest basket. Still, I'm happy to be sitting in 12th spot, given it's my first go at a fantasy cricket comp. Gayle, Sarwan and Oram did me proud, but Tuffey and McCullum were dead losses. :)

How is everybody else going? I don't recognize that many of the names on the standings list.

I'm FIRST :)

Thank you Gayle, Strauss, Flintoff and Harmison. :thumbsup:
I thought things were really looking up for my team (My ***y Minions) when Flintoff was ruled out of the comp initially - it must have played havoc with a bunch of the teams (I wonder if anybody swapped him out after the announcement?) - I was horrified when they rushed him back though :p

Congrats on 1st place! Are you well prepared for the Asia Cup? I've only got about three in so far.

I'm about 200th, and have only got Jayasuriya for the Asia Cup. Rain, damn rain...
Heh, he was my first swap in for the AC too - what's your team's name?

In fact, it'd be cool if more people shared their team names, because people are mostly using their real names rather than their forum usernames...

I've got five, with a substitution available before the start of the tournament. :p

Holy crap, Sudeep just got passed! I never thought that would happen.

I'm sitting in equal 10th, but the best I can hope for, with only a couple of games to go, is fifth... Lot of fun though - looking forward to the Champions Trophy comp. Haven't put my team for that together yet though.

I had easily predicted that. I even removed "The King of Fantasy Cricket" from my sig a week back. I didn't really concentrate on the modifications, and thus ended up with 3-4 players in my side who're injured, but their teams are playing. :confused:

:( I ended up third at the end of the competition. I didn't expect THAT. I thought at worst, I'll be second, though I did miss out by just a single point.

Man, one point, that sucks the big one. Still, top three is a real achievement.

I finished up ninth. I'd gone for Pollock over Kallis in the allrounder slot, and up to that last game, he'd been pretty good value. But Kallis' century hurt me bad, 'cause I was sitting at 7th going into the last game.

On to the Champions Trophy :)
