Do I have to pick now?

 

[Chewie]

Damn you DSB. There are no other great batting/pure all-rounders left.

Jacob Oram.

Only one's been selected though? :/

 

[hedger_14]

Exactly my point. There are no great batting/pure all-rounders atm.

Which means it's NIWS and Chewie to pick first. Any player from a

Ok thats means it's my chance

BRETT LEE is chosen player

 

[Chewie]

Riz to pick now, and then me.

Chewie added 2 Minutes and 11 Seconds later...

@Hedger, you're not including the international player you just picked in your side?? I would think that if the pitch isn't spinning then he'd definitely come in for either Blackwell or Rashid...

 

[hedger_14]

But you can only play 1 RI player and 1 INT player and AB is my first choice International.

 

[Chewie]

Oh I didn't read that

I'll probably have to play Kallis instead of Ponting or else my tail will start at 7

 

[Chewie]

^ I'm in the opposite situation to you, I have too many batsmen.

Chewie added 9 Minutes and 42 Seconds later...

1. Mark Cosgrove
2. Sachin Tendulkar
3. Niall O'Brien +
4. Ed Joyce
5. Hamish Marshall
6. Ryan ten Doeschate ^
7. Kevin O'Brien ^
8. Trent Johnston ^
9. Mauritz Jonkman ^
10. George Dockrell ^
11. Boyd Rankin ^

or something. I could take one of the bowlers out and let either Tendulkar, Cosgrove or one of the batsmen (Cooper, Kervezee, Coetzer, Hamilton, Dalrymple) to bowl.

 

[-D-S-B-]

It's just my bowling quality is quite good, but This would be a bit thin on the batting.

7. Graeme Swann ^
8. Stuart Broad ^
9. Ryan Sidebottom ^
10. Matthew Hoggard ^
11. Graham Wagg ^


Maybe get rid of Wagg. Or play Kallis over Ponting.

 

[Chewie]

personally I'd just play Kallis. But you do need 6 bowling options remember.

 

[riz7khan12]

i pick shane watson, he's more of a allrounder than oram tbh.

 

[-D-S-B-]

Yeah it makes way more sense. This is what my line up may look like, some of the local batsmen will probably change as I haven't sussed out who's better than who.

1. Mal Loye
2. Alex Hales
3. Jacques Kallis ^ -INT
4. Hashim Amla -RI
5. James Taylor
6. Samit Patel ^
7. Chris Read (wk)
8. Stuart Broad ^
9. Graeme Swann ^
10. Ryan Sidebottom ^
11. Matthew Hoggard ^


Mendis and Tait were very interesting picks as well Varun. I can think of many bowlers better than Tait.

 

[hedger_14]

If we are allowed to trade between different county regions, then I'll trade Shahzad or Plunkett for Joyce. I have too many good bowlers and am a bit weak in the middle-lower order.

hedger_14 added 1 Minutes and 24 Seconds later...

WTF. How did I forget Watson

I know why. Cause I was looking at the APL International all-rounders and just thought of Hopes and Henriques for the Aussie all-rounders.

 

[riz7khan12]

this will probably be my lineup

1. Andrew Strauss (c)
2. Alaistair Cook
3. Steve Davies (wk)
4. Eoin Morgan
5. Owais Shah
6. Ravi Bopara ^
7. Gareth Batty ^
8. Graham Napier ^
9. Dale Steyn ^
10. Ian O'Brien ^
11. Steven Finn ^

batting looks real strong, bowling should be pretty good with the 3 quicks + napier.
