All Time ODI Cricket Draft <---Shravis uppp

[shravi]

Should we skip Stinky? He's said on a few occasions that he can't post on Sundays so he'd miss his 24 hour limit anyways...

 

[sifter132]

Yeah maybe. Depends what TumTum's doing. If TumTum's hanging around for a while longer we might as well give Stinky a few hours just to see if he can make a pick on a Sunday morning. Otherwise he'll have the last 3 picks of the draft so I'd like to give him a chance. After TumTum it's cricketman and then KP, they should both be on later than TumTum, so I'd say just pick as late as you can TumTum to give stinky a chance.

Oh and Gazza, nice pick bro. Yuvi!! Be interesting to see how you finish off considering there's a couple of Aussie quicks that will be sitting there looking appealling - but you can't pick them I think I like your team best so far (apart from mine ) even if it has completely ignored the old players.

And also, for those guys looking to pick a wicketkeeper - stinky and num by the looks of it, Brad Haddin is ineligible, as he has only played 66 ODIs. Otherwise I'd be picking him

I said before the draft, I'd only be picking players that I've seen play

 

[sifter132]

That's cool - I quite liked your strat as it left some old guys for me

 

[drainpipe32]

Haha fair enough

 

[TumTum]

I can wait max 3 hours, then I will make my pick.

 

[StinkyBoHoon]

I'm here!

but bloody typical innit? hold on a sec, will have a look at what I need.

 

[StinkyBoHoon]

Ok, I had written up a pick for another player but no, I need a little stability in the batting.

Damien Martyn

Haven't seen him in anyone elses team, but he's a solid middle order batsman. Lets be honest, his stats are boosted a bit by having some of the best players in the world at the time around him, but he still did his job, and if CA found a regular place for him amongst ponting, hayden, gilchrist, bevan then I can find a place for him in my line up. His world cup and ICC trophy stats are much better than his career, suggesting he was one for the big occassion.

Harbhajan Singh

I hate this guy with a passion, but Harbhajan has been an essential part of India's ODI setup for the better part of the decade. He's got everything in his armory - the offbreak, the arm ball, and even the doosra. He can get the ball to climb off the length, can dart it in quick, and can beat the batsman through the air as well. In his career, Harbhajan has picked up 239 wickets at an average of 32, with two 4fers and 3 5 wicket hauls.

1. Saeed Anwar
2. Shiv Chanderpual
3. Kevin Pietersen
4. Mike Hussey
5. Michael Bevan
6. Dwayne Bravo
7. Mark Boucher +
8. Shaun Pollock
9. Harbhajan Singh
10. Zaheer Khan

[shravi]

Come on Dan, fix your internet and make your pick already . I'm pretty sure Dan's pick is going to be who I had in mind though.

 

[sifter132]

^I wouldn't think so. KP doesn't have a spinner and he might use another batsman since he's already got 12 guys who bowl :laugh. I'm guessing you're looking for a bowler, probably fast, who can bat a bit. Then I need a keeper, so I don't think we'll be stepping on anyone's toes today.

 

[drainpipe32]

I'd have taken Clarke ad Martyn if not for the countries restriction

EDIT: Oh wait, I was supposed to pick Clarke instead of Waugh :/

 

[TumTum]

:laugh

 

[drainpipe32]

Ah well

Will we have a trade period?
