Lets gamble to get the perfect lineup.We will go with Suren's line up.

 

[shantanu_rooney]

Well Yusuf Pathan is not an allrounder..

 

[ansariaamir_leo]

I agree with Suren Anna's lineup. One All rounder is enough for testing purpose. We'll come to know how they perform. But I personally think there would be a slight difference in it. As Suren Anna shared his experience even I had a horrible season with Dynamos as an all rounder. I bowled well in 1 match, batted okayish in 2 or so and was bad in the rest.

@ Shan : Are you sure? :confused:

 

[shalin_hitter]

Yes.Yusuf is not an all rounder.

 

[ansariaamir_leo]

Yes.Yusuf is not an all rounder.

Is he a pure batsman? If yes then its good for us.
The draft is just a formality now. I see the inactive players there. Only 1 player that we should be aiming at is the Wicket Keeper. We should have him as standby.

 

[shalin_hitter]

He is a pure batsmen.and yeah we will try to get that wicket keeper.

 

[shantanu_rooney]

I feel go for one allrounder. Becasue they can be handy sometimes.

Your thinking is nice but the simulator has been mean with all rounders. Its like one in 10-20 times they perform well so it'll be a gamble.

 

[shantanu_rooney]

Well but having a allrounder who is not gonna play a match. But sometimes may come handy according to the circumstances..

Beijing welcomes their final draft:- a WKB Binnurox and an all-rounder Waqaspk456. I had to choose between Waqaspk456 and cricket_guru. cricket_guru came online last on 2nd Feb whereas Waqaspk456 came online on 11th March. I also send Waqaspk456 a VM about the draft

 

[LUMB_YORKSHIRE]

welcome to Beijing Binnurox and Waqaspk

 

[Funknath]

Simon did a wrong calculation. He wrote 16 players(currently in the squad) instead of 14 players. There are two players Koustubh and cricket_guru left in the draft and other squad has completed their 18 man squad so we get those two.

Excuse me,but I'm a spinner.
I asked to become a LS bowler.
Leg Spin!
Could this be corrected?

 

[Burnsy1]
