I guess I'm going to have to wait a long time before I can make my picks...
 
Same here, didn't realise so many players would be released!
 
Yea I'm pretty satisfied with my team too so i don't really care that much. Hopefully there are some decent NZ players left at the end though...
 
Draft

The two drafts will be run simultaneously, in two different phases.

New Zealand Player Draft

It's all in alphabetical order, for easy navigation.
Player's in italics have represented New Zealand over the past year.
PT means that they're a part-time bowler.
One Season means the player will be retiring at the end of the season, as we'll be having a full re-shuffle it doesn't make any difference.

Draft Rules

* Please make sure you read when/if you are picking in each round, and how many players you are picking.

* I'll be pretty pissed off if someone miss picks, as I've written it all out clearly out above.

* You must wait until the round before is finished until the next round starts, unless I say over-wise.

* If you have not picked within a 24 hour period you will forfeit your pick, and the next round of drafting will resume as normal.

* You will also forfeit your pick, if you come online and fail to post anything in the thread.

* You may remake that pick when you next come online (Risking the loss of some better players), or make it along with your next pick.

* If you know you will not be coming on during a period of time, you can send me a PM with what sort of player/s you are looking for, and I will make your pick for you.

* If you are the last to pick in one round, you can immediately start the next round off.

* Once phase one is complete, please don't start phase two until I have told you to.


Player's Skill

Player's skills will be based on a variety of things:

* Player's Averages (All formats of the game)
* Recent Form
* International Experience
* My Perspective


Squad

Your squad will consist of 18 players, including:

* 10 New Zealanders
* 8 Internationals (Maximum of two per country)
* 2 Wicket-Keeper's (At least one Full-time)

What I recommend you have in your squad is:

Around six batsmen (A few part-time bowlers)
Two wicket-keepers (One full-time, and one part-time, or two full-time)
Around four all-rounders (mixture of pace and spin)
Around six bowlers (five pace, one spin)
Mixture of both New Zealanders and Internationals in each department


Team (Playing XI)

Your playing XI will consist of:

* 6 New Zealanders
* 5 Internationals
* 1 Wicket Keeper
* 6 Bowlers (At Least)
 
Made my list of 17 that I want :) Hopefully there are still 3 left by the time the draft gets to me...
 
Came online just to make my picks but that's not going to happen now :facepalm
You'll all have to wait for about 15 hours for me to come online again.
 
████, Aussie Team didn't come online last night! :mad:
Since we are waiting for him to pick more or less a third of his team, I'm prepared to wait for him a bit longer than I usually would.
Sorry to everyone else.
