[Sherlock Holmes]

Good draft for the forum. Bad timing for me. Missed the bus.

It’s not too late to join even now assuming @VC the slogger is fine with it and you are too….

 

[Umair7]

I pick Aravinda de Silva (1996)

@Gaurav_7 picks Sanath Jayasuriya

1992 (I will pick later) - don't have time to do research now... (Move to 1996 everyone)

 

[Fenil]

Saeed Anwar.

He scored almost 1600 runs in 1996 (just 16 runs behind prime Sachin at a far better SR than him. Sachin had a SR of 82 while Anwar was striking at 92) and already had 11 career hundreds by the end of the year

 

[CerealKiller]

Waqar Younis

 

[Na Maloom Afraad]

Anil Kumble please

 

[Paranoid Kendroid]

Shane warne

 

[Gaurav_7]

All great picks thus far and this is a real good round with lots of options. Jayasuriya was someone who revolutionised the first 15 overs hitting in this WC, hence went for him.

Sanath Jayasurya

I picked him via Umair man.

@VC the slogger I saw your now deleted post for Jayasuriya. I wanted to pick him too but Umair picked him for Gaurav for some reason. Not sure if it's allowed. Gaurav seemed to be online few mins later but Umair's post (if allowed) secured Jayasuriya for Gaurav.

Personally not a fan of a manager of an entirely different team picking players for some other manager's team but I will leave it upon you.

Muralitharan Muttiah

I PMed him and requested to pick my choice if he comes online and I am not as he was the last one remaining to pick. I personally see no harm in it.

Never seen a team manager picking players for someone else's team but I'm okay if Varun allows it.

 

[ahmedleo414]

Kumar Sangakkara

From 1996?

 

[Fenil]

Sachin

Already picked in 1992 when he was an average middle order batsman.
