Greatest ODI Team - A Draft [Rules #19]

SL_Fan said:
Why don't you take that team over champ you can fill in the gaps after [MENTION=132969]Da_Future_Knick[/MENTION] makes his pick. Ahmadharis1 hasn't been around last few rounds plus don't think it'll be fair to release those players now.

If only I had the opportunity...

I was shot down like a duck in 1st day of hunting season.

It's true that I was interested to make his pick for 3rd round when he missed his Ind-SA picks. A lot of water has passed through under bridges since then. Still a temptation to fill in but I'm not sure whether I should or not. I think it will disturb last round strategies of some selecters if I start picking now.

Secondly, I am already committed to select an XI from unpicked pool with representation from at least 9 countries.

No worries champ looking forward to your unpicked XI :))

Ah yes forgot about all that. You got the job if you want it buddy.

His picks are Akram, Crowe, Warner and Malinga.

So he has left to go Ind and SA picks, Zimb and WI picks, Bang and Eng picks and a pick from any country.

You can make those picks now since it's ahmadharis1 turn this round.
 
This draft is just lame now.

If no one is making picks or if we are not moving forward. Then just delete this thread.

There was a simple rule of moving ahead if the pick is not made in 24hrs

First pick of last round has been Abdul Razzaq and afterwards 24 hours waiting out because it was [MENTION=142013]ahmadharis1[/MENTION] at #2. His time is over now and @silent_ischemia is on the clock now.

Btw, have you figured out the offie who has 5700 runs and 190 wickets. A certain CLH who was a CRH.

+1

This has become a joke now. People should have known when they enrolled. Don't join if you're not interested.
 
Well just so everyone knows we are up to ahmadharis1 this round and I would have skipped him again but a couple of others sounded like they would be interested in taking that team over. Anyways we have waited long enough now so let’s move on ahead.

Ahmadharis1 is out and the players he has picked can’t be picked by anyone else just to keep things fair for all. Same with dildildalwalla’s team don’t think he’ll be back to complete his team either.
 
Last round draft order - Free to choose from any country

[MENTION=132969]Da_Future_Knick[/MENTION] 18
[MENTION=142013]ahmadharis1[/MENTION] 15 SKIP
[MENTION=133745]silent ischemia[/MENTION] 13
[MENTION=135038]Major[/MENTION] 12
[MENTION=140154]Arsalan Pro[/MENTION] 12
[MENTION=132270]SL_Fan[/MENTION] 11
[MENTION=143163]dildildalwalla[/MENTION] 10 SKIP
[MENTION=2884]shafkath[/MENTION] 7
[MENTION=143419]captain crook[/MENTION] 6
[MENTION=143316]shady[/MENTION]
 
[MENTION=133745]silent ischemia[/MENTION] you're up mate.
 
Also free to trade players while you await your turn or if you have already finished with your picks.

That should keep y'all busy. Hopefully :))

Someone like Stuart Broad/Damien Fleming/Anil Kumble/Saeed Ajmal should complete the order.

Yeah I think we should go ahead and complete his team. After all it is his draft. Andy Roberts is another one what do you reckon champ. He's missing an out an out quick in there.

I think this team should go through.

Missing an offie, so Harbhajan Singh comes in.

I'm surprised no one picked Andy Roberts until now. The legend is easily ahead of Marshall or Holding in ODI bowling. 56 matches at 20.35 average. He needs to grace one of our XIs as a tribute. I second your choice.
 
last_knight said:
That's final boss. Gayle outweighed Mark Waugh for final pick.
Click to expand...

Actually come to think of it why don't you pick and choose out of Akram, Crowe, Warner and Malinga as well. Otherwise when it comes to voting pretty sure a lot of ppl will ask where Wasim is and so on :))
 
last_knight said:
Three. Grant has 100+ wickets.
Team has Pacers, Leggie, 2 SLA. An offie is missing.

If it has to be a pacer, it should be a Leftie. Zaheer Khan.

My bad so 3 spinners that's more than enough tweakers then hahaha. I reckon Andy should do it as well would be a shame to leave him out. Would be hilarious if dildildalwalla ends up taking it out now tho that's a strong line-up with Ambrose, Pollock and Andy in there :))
 
I'll finish off rest of the tables when I get some time.
