Draft: Old Guys

[Bevab]

When in doubt, look at associates

Also look in the Sri Lankan domestic system @Paranoid Kendroid as there's always bound to be an elderly uncle who refuses to retire because their club serves the best biscuits and chai in town.

If only Canadian league was official T20. One of the teams would have become superior above all by just picking him.

 

[Supreme General]

@Supreme General have outstanding picks

Wait I do?

In that case, I’ll pick Wriddhiman Saha as my keeper as it seems like most of the old glovemen have gone

Aislabie skipped, back to @Supreme General.

Outstanding picks: @Paranoid Kendroid, @Aislabie (x2)

Sorry about this; I generally don't function super well at the end of my work week. Time to make some picks

Toby Roland-Jones will come in - not Peter Siddle as I originally thought. He's not phenomenally quick, but he's an incredibly clever and skilful bowler, and he also scores fast runs down the order.

And Chadwick Walton is a really underrated gloveman who is better known for his ability to biff it for any team willing to pay him. Plus his middle names are "Antonio Kirkpatrick".

1. Dimuth Karunaratne

3. Mohammad Hafeez
4. Ross Taylor
5.
6. Colin de Grandhomme
7. Chadwick Walton
8. Ravichandran Ashwin

1. Aaron Finch

3. Cheteshwar Pujara
4.
5.
6. Mo Nabi
7. Wriddhiman Saha
8. Gareth Berg
9. Neil Wagner
10. Tim Murtagh
11. Jimmy Anderson


Since it’s an all format draft, probably should get in s more attacking minded batter to counteract Pujara in the form of the former Aussie Captain Aaron Finch who could do an alright job in the longer format it required

I assume he can be skipped since he hasn’t made a pick in a long time. If so I would be the next in line so @Aislabie to confirm it.

@Paranoid Kendroid

I was honestly contemplating picking him even if it screwed up my team balance because I was in disbelief that both him and Williams weren’t picked for so long.

His birthday is around 3 months after the cutoff

I'm probably gonna be opening with him if I don't find anyone else

I think Rahim’s got a little experience opening once upon a time but I could be very wrong on this.
