ODI World Cup draft II | 20 teams, 48 matches, 240 WC greats, and the winner is...

[Paranoid Kendroid]

Allan Lamb

 

[Gaurav_7]

David Gower

 

[Bevab]

Aaand just like that my top two picks are gone.

 

[Fenil]

bout that. This is probably the only round where I actually wanted to jump the queue

No worries. You should grab the chance when you can.

Besides I'm quite happy with Marshall. He was probably at his peak in the early 1980s. Wanted to grab him in 79 since he was with the Windies already but he still hadn't made a name for himself hence hoped it fell under the radar of the other members. Hehe.

Great pick by you BTW.

Nah, Gower and Lamb. I was too late to the former two anyway.

 

[Bevab]

I'll take Madan Lal Sharma then.

Also, do you guys mind picking some snazzy team names please.. I feel something awkward happening in my brain each time I have to type xyz123's XI in a match post for some reason. I'll start with naming mine VC's Sloggers

I'll go with the good old @Bevab's Blasters as usual.

[Bevab]

Kapil Dev, 48 hours have gone by since the round began.

Gonna set an alarm and reminder for 12:50 PM on Wednesday.

Great list man. Good ones to pick at this point.

 

[Bevab]

Aah the legendary Madanlal.

If tournament performances are to be the main deciding criteria then I expect Madan Lal to be the desi McGrath.
