Not yet.
He'll let you know when to submit the details.

 

[OffCutters]

I`m happy with my squad so far, looks pretty strong, Ricky Ponting, Cam White and Shaun Tait, not bad eh?

 

[hedger_14]

Michael Clarke, Nathan Hauritz and Doug Bollinger. Not bad either.

 

[OffCutters]

We have similar squads, a batsman, a spinner and a pace bowler,

 

[CG123]

I'm pretty happy; Vettori, Oram and McMillan...

 

[OffCutters]

Solid picks there Callum.

Oh and i`m surprised i got Shaun Tait in Round 3, thought he`d be picked early but i suppose some people`ve forgotten about him..

 

[CG123]

Only a couple of us doing the NZ draft actually no anything about our domestic game, so I should be able to get in a few more good picks.

 

[Covvy]

Hussey, Warner and Doherty, watch our guys

I guess but my spinner can actually spin the ball. Doug Bollinger had a good series in India so hopefully that will improve his bowling average. 5/35 in his last match and 3/37 in the 4th ODI. He was also very economical in the 3rd ODI (0/26 from 10 over's). Lets hope he can do that in this tournament.

Edit: Shaun Tait isn't great. He's got a good pace and a reasonably good bowler. I would rate Bollinger better than him (which is why I took him in Round 3). I've got a whole lot of picks lined up. It seems like some players have been forgotten a bit.

 

[OffCutters]

Warner and Doherty? Pfft...

@Hedger- Lets see.. Ponting over Clarke, Hauritz-yep he`s better than White i suppose, but i chose White for his batting skills, which would be a good asset to add onto his spin bowling. And I`d go Tait at his best over Bollinger any day, though Tait is known to be quite expensive...

 

[Covvy]

What's happened to Akash? He's stopping the whole draft

 

[CG123]

Also biggy James Franklin is an all-rounder, you put him down as a bowler...
He has a FC batting average of 34 including 9 centuries, I don't know why cricinfo still has him as a bowler.

 

[hedger_14]

I know. Akash is holding everyone up.

@ OffCutters, Yes, I agree Ponting is better than Clarke but Clarke can bowl some part time spin, White is a better batter than Hauritz for sure but his bowling wouldn't be much better than someone like Alam's spin and Bollinger and Tait would be pretty even when Tait is at his best but he's not normally at his best. Anyway, the players I will pick up now will make my team better than yours.

This is going to be on a simulator based on averages so these things dont matter much

White has a good batting and bowling average so it doesnt matter, and Tait has a decent bowling average..

 

[hedger_14]

I think he said it was based on ODI and List A averages.

Cameron White - ODI average of 32.78 in 47 matches, OD average of 33.61 in 151 matches. ODI bowling average of 28.75 (only taken 12 wickets though) and has an economy of over 6 an over. OD bowling average of 35.60 (92 wickets).

Test bowling average of 68.40 and FC bowling average of 39.84 if you want to know how ████ a FC bowler he is.
