Draft: The Fortune Draft! The Second Fortune Spin! - Can’t seem to find time,

[Sherlock Holmes]

Round 3


The Gamble

#5
The last person who'll try his luck is @Parth D ... He'll gamble...

Napoleon Einstein

A brave move risking a player having a List A average of 45.
Will he get a better player, or will he end up with a person fit to be a "Panesar" in any layer draft?

Let's spin the wheel...

​

Spoiler: He ends up with...

Boeta Dippenaar

Statistics
List A:- 7637 Runs @ 39.56 (8 100s, Best 125*) in 246 matches
ODIs:- 3421 runs @ 42.23 (4 100s, Best 125*) in 107 matches

Damn! Damn! Damn! What a gamble! Napoleon Einstein is replaced by Boeta Dippenaar. A batsman very pleasing to the eye. Boeta Dippenaar's best moment in his career was the One-Day series against WI in 2005 when he ended up with an average of more than 100.
​

Boeta Dippenaar
Luke Pomersbach​

Lord has been kind!

Round 3


The Gamble

#4
The next person who'll try his luck is @Rabbit Hood ... Will this gamble save him from

Kwame Tucker

Will he get a better player, or will he end up with a person fit to be a "Panesar" in any layer draft?

Let's spin the wheel...

​

Spoiler: He ends up with...

Barrie Meyer

Statistics
List A:- 134 Runs @ 6.70 (Best 21) in 44 matches

This is getting way funnier. Someone worse than Kwame Tucker. Seriously! :haha
​

Mick Lewis
Barrie Meyer​

What

 

[Sherlock Holmes]

Boeta Dippenaar
Luke Pomersbach

Both not someone's first choice when it comes to drafts.
But anyone won't mind them being in the line up

Round 3


The Gamble

#3
The next person is @qpeedore ... With his "Titanic" already sunk, will this gamble be Carpathia?
The player he is willing to risk is..

Ray Julien

Will he get a better player, or will he end up with a person fit to be a "Panesar" in any layer draft?

Let's spin the wheel...

​

Spoiler: He ends up with...

View attachment 234233
Sadanand Vishwanath

Statistics
ODIs:- 72 runs @ 9.00 (Best 23*) in 22 Matches
List A:- 424 runs @ 13.67 (Best 54) in 54 Matches

Upgrade? Or maybe not. His situation doesn't change much as he gets another, Ray Julien-ish wicketkeeper... ​

Alex Loudon
Sadanand Vishwanath​

Yeah, I'll definitely take him over Julian any day.

[Sherlock Holmes]

The Little Master​

The man needs no introduction at all. If what Don Bradman is to Test Cricket, then this man is to the One Day and the List A circuit hands down. He opens, he slogs, he sheets, he smashes, he is consistent, he attacks, he defends, and more to it, he also bowls. More importantly, he understands the game. He loves the game. He is also loved by the lovers of the game. None other than the modern God of Cricket, Sachin Tendulkar.
