Yeah mate. Pretty damn happy with that considering where we were in Round 1.

Brett Lee. It looks like he's in decent form and with Aussie's bowlers getting crocked by the second, I reckon he'll play most games.

Thanks Marc for getting in quickly. Dilshan should do well especially against the weaker teams IMO.. Hopefully he gets a few strike rate bonuses.

The more I think about it, the more I'm convinced that Yuvraj first up for Blaze_18/smalishah18's team was a great pick.

Athlai doesn't lie. And he doesn't do sarcasm either, so you know it's true!

Haha, seems I got it spot on on CS.

FTR, my reasoning was that 30 runs + 1 wicket a game = 60 points.

Tendulkar (or a similar batsman) averaging 60 runs a game = 60 points.

They're practically the same outcome as far as the points system goes (discounting for bonuses, of course).
