The Australia ODI squad is just mentioned. I only didn't include Brad Haddin, Xavier Doherty and Peter Siddle.

Other players, which I already included and weren't selected, have been excluded, since there was only one other person, who had registered his team. So he can change his team now also.

Is there a post count requirement before I can sign up to play?

 

[ZexyZahid]

I am not sure about that, but if there is, you can make some posts here: Cricket Discussion - International Tours and Events at PlanetCricket.net

Also I've got a great start: Watson scored 59 runs and took 4 wickets in the first T20I.

These players have him as captain: Akash00, aussie1st, Gunpot, nuffa and ZexyZahid.

[ZexyZahid]

I should improve in the upcoming ODI series, because I was only playing with 6 players.

 

[ZexyZahid]

Not great news for me: Tait and Anderson aren't playing in the 1st ODI. Also David Hussey is playing, while I expected him not to play in the ODI series.

Currently Cameron White is listed as number four batsman; I really would like him to come as late as possible.

 

[AkshayS]

Anybody having Watto as captain is going to run away with this.

I've got Watson as captain and that isn't still enough. I don't have David Hussey or Pietersen though.

 

[ZexyZahid]

Although it's not official, it's said that Mike Hussey is in doubt for the World Cup. He just had a hamstring surgery. From that on, you can say that he won't feature in the ODI series.

Mike Hussey can be replaced till the start of the 2nd ODI, which is on 21 January 2011 at 03:20 GMT.

I am just reading that Anderson isn't even in Australia. He is available when the 4th ODI will start. If I had known that earlier I wouldn't have taken him in my team.

 

[mohit_dude10]

Swann is injured, can he be replaced?

Injured Graeme Swann out for two weeks

 

[Akash00]

Replace Mike Hussey for me.
