Draft: The No Ducks Draft

@Aislabie missed his time @Yash. It's next

 

[Aislabie]

Ashraf Ali

Tests - 229 runs @ 45.80 (best 65) and 22 dismissals (17 ct, 5 st) in 8 matches
First-class - 6,850 runs @ 38.26 (5 centuries, best 136*) and 463 dismissals (381 ct, 82 st) in 156 matches

Ashraf Ali was an energetic little cannonball of a man who was absolutely at home behind the stumps. Despite the excellent stats, he usually batted at number eight for Pakistan so that's where he'll bat for my team too. That means we have the slightly excessive depth of Stan Nichols at number nine. The team is maybe one front-line bowler short, but I am honestly very happy with how it's turned out.

1. Barry Richards
2. Raman Subba Row
3. Duleepsinhji
4. HD Ackerman
5. Pravin Amre
6. Jim Burke
7. Bernard Bosanquet
8. Ashraf Ali
9. Stan Nichols
10. Scott Boland
11. George Finlay-Bissett

@Yash.

C.K.Nayudu takes up the last spot in my team, he was India's first captain and a pretty big figure in Indian cricket. Also gives a 3rd pace option
1. Herbie Collins
2. Jack Robertson
3. Cyril Walters
4. Walter Read
5. C.K. Nayudu
6. Lee Ervine
7. James Langridge
8. Roy Kilner
9. Billy Bates
10. Walter Lees
11. Bob Appleyard

Pretty happy with that team, would have hoped for one more proper seam option but hopefully Nayudu can help out there

@Aislabie that completes the draft

 

[ahmedleo414]

I think there's still a couple people missing to complete their teams, @Aislabie any chance of post draft analysis
