Will like part next time (good luck)

Would love to participate but I’ve got no clue as to how RNG drafts work. Anyone willing to explain?

Basically, half of this draft is standard Unlucky Dip. That isn't the RNG bit.

The RNG bit works basically as so:
1. I set up a filter on Statsguru that returns 8 international cricketers per page.
2. I use Random.org to give me a page number.
3. I send you the page in DMs.
4. The player you pick must come from that page.

While 12 people have signed up since you posted your question, I'm willing to add you as a 13th as I should have got to this earlier.

Count me in if there's room.

Aye I was already willing to participate, just wanted some clarity on the rules.

 

[ddrap14]

Alright, I'll open this Thursday morning then

 

[Aravind.]

Sorry @ddrap14 unfortunately out on this, due to busy personal life. Loved your drafts, in future if you conduct drafts, please do tag me. All the best for this.

 

[ddrap14]

Draft start delayed six hours; I've picked up an extra shift tomorrow

 

[pillowprocter]

Take your time, no one really remembered when it was starting in the first place

 

[ddrap14]

@Disharies @ahmedleo414 reminder

 

[ddrap14]

@Disharies another reminder. If I don't have a pick in 24 hours, I'll auto (wouldn't normally but there's one day I can do players this week and that's tomorrow)

Unlucky Dip Player 1
Dane Schadendorf

This is a relatively good get for the Unlucky Dip. He can wicketkeep and isn't a completely awful batter as opposed to some.

Unlucky Dip Player 2
Greig Williamson

On the other hand, here's a seaming all-rounder. I say all rounder because all his skills are about the same - shit batting, shit bowling, shit fielding.

Unlucky Dip Player 3
Rohan Gavaskar

Kinda the opposite of a nepo baby. Rohan was a good first-class batting allrounder whose struggles internationally and father's name meant he got dragged through the dirt.

Unlucky Dip Player 4
Brijal Patel

Ah, an Unlucky Dip veteran. Patel was completely useless as a top order bat - except for the pictured knock, of 42 against Australia.
