The Ordinary Draft - ROUND 1

I think 9 signups are enough. Don't forget to tag the next person and those who aren't familiar with draft, you wait 24 hours for the person to pick after that it switches to the next in line.

Basic, lineup rules - need 5 bowling options and 1 wicket-keeper

Edit: 13 signups it is!

Here is the draft order:

Updated draft order. @Till Valhalla you're up!
 
1753071550716.png
In one of the few cricket magazines I own, Australian cricketers of the 2011/12 domestic season voted :ar: Luke Butterworth as "most underrated". I.e. "he's average but everyone thinks he's totally shite".

My other picks will be more mathematical, but let's start with some sentiment, no?

@Ed Smith
 
I was trying my hardest to think of Average cricketers, batsmen that average less than 34 in all formats seemed like a good start... those type of guys would never play 57 tests for a nation like England as an opener.

Oh there is someone? Sweet I'll have him.
@mohsin7827

(Is this an Agenda now? Maybe... please pick him in the Ashes England)
 
It's not often in Drafts I already know who's going to be my first pick. Whatever I pick now is going to set the tone for this draft.

My first pick is a player who not only has average stats but also average looks. Despite this he played a decent amount of matches for his country and I did liked him as player as well.

In 59 ODI matches he averages 30 with the bat and 51 with the ball.

In 38 T20I matches he averages 32 (inflated by his 14 not outs) and he only ever bowled a total of 5 overs so his bowling contribution was negligible.

Unfortunately, he did not get a chance to play Test. Maybe CSA realized that it was perhaps his best format and so they kept him in place in his average formats.

Keeping the trend of every player being from a different nation, my first pick is going to be the current West Indies Test skipper, :wi: :ar: Roston Chase.

Every mid-tier side needs to have that one all-rounder who barely makes an impact most of the time, making you wonder if their primary discipline is just existing. If we judge Roston solely on his batting or bowling, he is not a star —but as an all-rounder, not the worst guy you could ask for.

@Supreme General
 
Easy decision for me. It’s the player I call Mr. mediocre and the most bang average cricketer ever. It’s kinda easy to see I have a very hard agenda against him being selected as it always look like a step back. Consequently this last week and the few months before that haven’t been quite for it. That’s cause it’s none other than somehow England’s new/returning Test Spinner, Liam Dawson who for whatever reason I’ll never understand has a World Cup winners medal.


7. :eng: :ar: Liam Dawson
