The Writing on the Wall Team Update.

1. Tom Cooper (Batsman) NED
2. Steve Tikolo (Batsman) KEN
3. Thilan Samaraweera (Batsman) SL
4. Kevin Pietersen (Batsman) ENG
5. Ryan ten Doeschate (All Rounder) NED
6. David Hussey (Batsman) AUS

8. Mahmudullah (All Rounder) BAN
9. Brett Lee (Bowler) AUS
10. Abdur Razzak (Bowler) BAN
11. Ajantha Mendis (Bowler) SL

This XI has epic fail written all over it. Expect most runs to be contributed by extras.

I am going to support this side during the Cup tbh.

I am going to support this side during the Cup tbh.

Oh god. Is it that bad?

 

[Prince EWS]

Oh god. Is it that bad?

Indeed.

Has a fair few players I like - Cooper, Samaraweera, Mahmudullah and Mendis are all personal favourites. I'm a bit partial to Razzak, Lee and Dussey at times as well. Associates doing well is always fun so you might as well throw RTD and Tikolo in too.

In other ways, your best two players (and probably your first two picks?) are the only ones I don't like.

 

[M0rphin3]

[kingkallis]

M0rph - thank god you are here. Now stop laughing and start posting!

I didn't even pick Doughnut. Oh, and Pietersen was 3rd pick.

 

[NUFAN]

There is absolutely no way Morph is allowed Callum Ferguson. By the rules set, the person who selected Michael Hussey should get him by default.

 

[marc71178]

4. Callum Ferguson

Think you may have to pick again here - he's an injury replacement.

Edit: Team MarcFAN work as one.

 

[M0rphin3]

Was not aware of that itbt

We'll swap him for Craig Ervine then.

 

[kingkallis]

Ferguson is the automatic pick of Michealf777777 & Contra as the replacement of Michael Hussey

 

[kingkallis]

That completes all the Rounds

[G.I.Joe]

That was over quickly. Now entertain us for the next 11 days, kk. Dance!

 

[Somerset]

Initially thought we'd be struggling to have the drafting process complete by the opening match - marvellous effort to have it completed so quickly.

I can't believe we've managed to finish this in two weeks (?). I thought we'd struggle to get it done before February 19. Good job one and all.

 

[Jarquis]

So Joe and I get Ravi Bopara - should be classified as an allrounder IMO. What happens now
