Re: Fantasy Domestic League Draft

Bluto, not sure if you're around, but this is your 2-hour warning. If you haven't made your selection by then, I'll make mine!
 
Re: Fantasy Domestic League Draft

Oops, fell asleep, so your 2 hour warning became 9. In any case, now I'm going to pick.

With the 52nd pick in the FDL draft, the Scarborough Bullets select:

Anil Kumble, spin bowler from India.
 
Re: Fantasy Domestic League Draft

Re: Fantasy Domestic League Draft

Not sure if this bloke still plays for essex. I know he played last year, But i cannot find any where saying he has retired from First class cricket !!


- Andy Flower

The elder of two Test-playing brothers, Andy Flower was for a long time Zimbabwe's only batsman of true Test quality in all conditions. For a period of about two years from the start of 2000 he was so phenomenally consistent that he has no rival as the best player in Zimbabwe's history. His wicketkeeping, though, was sometimes less dependable, and probably suffered from the added strain of having to lead the side. He had two stints as captain, leading Zimbabwe to their first Test victory against Pakistan in 1994-95, and then becoming the first Zimbabwean to lead a Test tour of England, in 2000. An assured player of fast bowling since his early days as an opener, Flower matured into one of the best players of spin in the world, and on the Indian tour early in 2001 he made 540 runs for twice out. By then, he had gone from underrated over-achiever to a recognised star, with a spell at No. 1 in the PwC Ratings. Opposing bowlers targeted him accordingly and after a phenomenal Test against South Africa at Harare, when he made 142 and 199 not out, he suffered a rare slump. Off the field, Flower is a keen student of Zimbabwe's history, of which he is now a notable part.
 
Re: Fantasy Domestic League Draft

That leaves Metallica_ACDC on the clock, with Bluto left to make 1 pick that he missed out on. Let's get this draft back on track!

Re: Fantasy Domestic League Draft

56.Phil Jaques

57.Shane Watson( as he hasnt played enough tests dont we use first class avarages ?
 
Re: Fantasy Domestic League Draft

I think we decided that if you haven't made the cut-off your ineligible, Otherwise players such as RTD could have averages higher than Ponting.

Why did you pick Asif then?? His great average is rendered useless due to the cut-off point.

he could still use him for ODIs, but he has 9 tests and Pakistan's next test is around September
