Cricket Draft

[ROADENDSMIG]

Shastri?

 

Not a bad pick.

 

He was one of the most easy on the eye players I have seen bat.

Not a bad spinner either.

 

Would be a good pick.

My team is starting to shape up nicely.

 

Worried about the rest now though, with 5 spaces left to fill - there are not many true stars left. Doubt there will be any by the time i go again in 20 odd rounds.

 

Absolutely made up i got Colin Cowdrey this late. Shocked noboby snapped him up before now. I posed the question to my grandad a few days back about a dream team of players who he would have seeing as he has followed cricket for over 60 years and Cowdrey followed Viv Richards in his team. Obviously i can only read about him seeing as he retired 5 years before i was born but seems he really was one of the superstars back in the day, and i got him in round 6. Result.

I remember watching Pakistan Vs India in 2004 and it was when I was starting to really get into the game. I loved when Moin Khan would be using his 'bowled Danish' after every ball.

 

Plus Kaneria is the 4th highest wicket take in Pakistan's history and I couldnt think of any good spinners that havent been picked so it was a no brainer.

Imagine a Mod missing his turn in a draft. Imagine.

[Guest LFD]

Was he pm'd?

[Yozzer]

FG said he did or was in the process of.

 

I tweeted him because I'm that good.

[Stu Monty]

Whoah there, hold the fucking phone! I get 24 hours don't I?

 

Just slipped a corker in there that has no right being still available at this stage. Happy that I got my attack sorted first. Loads of decent batsmen to pick from but way fewer very good bowlers.

[Guest LFD]

Yeah you get 24 hours. I was just checking you got pm'd.

 

Good pick Hussey, Mr cricket!

[Guest LFD]

We're half way through the selections now.

[TheBitch]

We're half way through the selections now.

 

2 and a half weeks to get to this stage. Not cool.

At the current rate I'll be in Nepal before I've finished my team. I leave on the 30th.

[Guest LFD]

I think it will get slower as the picks get less obvious!

Great!!!!

 

I may enlist the help of an independent. Step forward Champ. I'll PM her a list of players in order and a to-do list, if it's OK with her, in exchange for a lifetimes worth of rep.

 

Will cross that bridge when I come to it anyway.

[Guest LFD]

I think that's fine.

 

My only issue with it would be, Champ will then be voting for your team. You would expect everyone will vote for their own side. But you will be then getting two votes to everyone elses one vote.

 

See what others think.

Champ would vote for mine anyway. Because its clearly gonna be the best team.

[Ian Sea]

We shouldn't be allowed to vote for our own team, that would sort any issue with The Bitch and Champ too.

[Champ]

I'm easily bought. Happy to help

Is that an option when you do polls?

[Ian Sea]

 

Is that an option when you do polls?

 

Don't know, never done one. If you can't we could just have it as a rule.

[RobbieOR]

Set the poll as public, if your name appears as a vote under your own team, its invalid.

[TheBitch]

That Navman chap obviously has a life away from here. Sad fucker.

Why is Rich bothered about this when he's clearly not going to see the results once the Nepalese plane he's on smashes into the side of a mountain? It's raining charred sherpas, Hallelujah, it's raining...Maybe needs some work.

 

Actually I call first dibs on not only his stuff but also any of his team that I fancy.

I wanna go out with a bang. Which I probably will I guess, covered in aviation fuel and bits of mountain.

I call dibs on his current and ex shags.

Done. Think of it as a wedding gift. Carly will understand.

[Red Banjo]

Excellent choice Piston.

 

Hoping he might stay elusive until my next go.
