Draft: The Toss Draft

[Till Valhalla]

Apologies all, got hammered by uni and then work yesterday this week.

Will get a round out either this afternoon or tomorrow

Don't worry they all know there teams are inferior to mine already.

Staying Player List
@Aislabie - Zubin Surkari

I think Aislabie wants his order back...

@icyman - Jimmy Anderson

Pollock, Anderson and Stokes (and Blatherwick lol), good attack. Yes, that is Jimmy.

@Supreme General - Salman Butt


@Viper. - Hashim Amla

A legend of the game. Also a very necessary retention here...

Swapping Player List
@pillowprocter (via Disharies) - Trent Boult

photo source: Trent Boult's Instagram, lol

@ddrap14 (via Verified Enigma) - Nathan McCullum

The tall one in the picture, and the bad one of the brothers, unfortunately for me

@Verified Enigma (via Yash) - Monty Panesar

I mean... he had to be here didn't he?

@Disharies (via Pillowprocter) - Vaibhav Suryavanshi

Positive: he has potential

@CerealKiller (via Till Valhalla) - Thomas Odoyo

A top-end associate bowler who was also handy with the bat. Not a true worldbeater but certainly more than decent

@Till Valhalla (from me) - Graham Onions

A seamer with very little that was truly remarkable at an international level. Other than the name

@Yash. (via CerealKiller) - Chris Martin

The worst batsman in the history of ever, but you've got a contributor in the other categories. Sadly, you already have two complete bunnies...

One final teaser for tonight:


New draft dropping after the next round is posted!

 

[Sherlock Holmes]

@Verified Enigma (via Yash) - Monty Panesar

I mean... he had to be here didn't he?

Panésar, I choose you..

 

[Till Valhalla]

name

Yes

 

[pillowprocter]

very nice pickup

Round 10

Staying	Swapping
@Aislabie @pillowprocter @ddrap14 @Viper. @Disharies @CerealKiller @Yash.	@icyman (gets Enigma's player) @Supreme General (gets Icyman's player) @Verified Enigma (gets TV's player) @Till Valhalla (gets Supreme's player)

 

[ddrap14]

Staying Player List
@Aislabie - Mike Proctor

Finally, a good retention for Aislabie!

@pillowprocter - Mohammad Abbas

A canny seam bowler, but not someone Procter wanted to pick up really. He now cannot afford a bowler in the final round.

@ddrap14 - Nikhil Chaudhary

Allroundermegeddon continues for me

@Viper. - Sir Viv Richards

This was a good time for Viper to start getting retains, wasn't it?

@Disharies - Sandeep Lamichhane


@CerealKiller - Jack Leach

A spinner known for three things, all of which aren't spin - resolute batting, fun glasses, and major injuries

@Yash. - Shahid Afridi

One of the biggest characters in recent history, but perhaps not the spin bowling allrounder you'd want in a Test...

 

[ddrap14]

Swapping Players List
@icyman (via Enigma) - (?) Unmukt Chand

Chand did something that no player has ever done before. He rejected the BCCI and IPL to travel other franchise leagues. Fair play to him. Sorry to Icyman, who gets L Of The Round

@Supreme General (via Icyman) - Malcolm Marshall

And there's why

@Verified Enigma (via TV) - Tim Southee

He needs to retire, but Tim Southee was a very good seamer for a very long time for the Kiwis.

@Till Valhalla (via Supreme) - Chamu Chibhabha

A top order batsman who can bowl, Chibhabha was a good servant for the troubled-era Zimbabwe. Not so much against Marshall and Warne.

 

[Till Valhalla]

spin bowling allrounder you'd want in a Test

Written by opposing teams

 

[pillowprocter]

With some semblance of batting order:

Bannerman
Gooch
Wattenburg
Ashraful
Hamilton
Hogg
Lindwall
Spofforth
Boult
Abbas

A batter would round this XI out so nicely. Top tier bowling attack that.

 

[ddrap14]

Not dead. Just busy. Same as the Fender Feud. Will hopefully finish it and start that next week

 

[ddrap14]

One more time!
