International Cricket Association | ICA Grand Final - 4th match

[Anish.]

Dam, it , I am not there . London atleast?

Draft is scheduled to start Saturday 15 December, 7am GMT / 8pm NZT. First round will be a free for all. Vote in the poll to decide whether you want 15 or 18 player squads.

In such a long tournament I'd probably go with 18 player squads, because that will allow people to have like two back-ups in each role, instead of just one.

Only 'cause The Author chose Harare and then London and since Harare is no longer an option, London becomes his first choice. If he picks something else and so does singhb, you get London.

I didn't think of that. Was worried about the talent pool being spread too thin. But with no country restrictions that's not really an issue.

I too prefer 18-player squads.

Cities in bold have been allocated, the ones that have struck through will have to be chosen again since I got rid of those choices after reducing the number of sides back to 16.

Draft is scheduled to start Saturday 15 December, 7am GMT / 8pm NZT. First round will be a free for all.

I hope we don't have an ordered draft again.

Semi-ordered. Much like the NZPL. That's the fairest way.

 

[MrNginator]

I'll be inactive until the end of this weekend, so that will be a huge blow for me.

Darn you Callum for coming up with the idea.
The draft might take ages to finish with so many teams.

Don't worry. I'll be here to keep it flowing. I'm going to have to be quite strict with people coming online and not picking.

We can have the 24 hour per round rule.

 

[Prats]

Great!

But what is the squad composition?

 

[Till Valhalla]

If anybody needs a co manager.I am ready.

 

[Iridium]

We can have the 24 hour per round rule.

Yea that'll be a good idea.

Great!

But what is the squad composition?

18 players. No country restrictions, no set structure to follow. It'll be up to you to balance your squad with batsmen, all rounders, keepers and bowlers. No retired players allowed of course but if they have only retired from international cricket, then they are still eligible. Basically, pick players who you know will perform well if they had to play tomorrow.

Only set rule I have is you must have two keepers, one of which must be a full time keeper.
