Football drafters know from experience...the trades can potentially ruin the whole thing. People complaining about who trades who, if it's fair, if it effects the match ups etc. causes more problems than what it's worth.
I'm heading to a cocktail reception at work and may not check back in for next 12-14 hrs. Can someone take my pick?
why not
I thought you were in India?
I'd take your pick but we pick before you.
We'll use the same venues as the test draft because I can't be arsed to change anything.
1. Melbourne
2. Colombo
3. Kolkata
4. Karachi
5. Barbados
6. Lords
7. Cape Town
8. Wellington

Your numbers are in the OP (i.e. the order of your draft pick - so 1. TMH-Harshad 2. Aldo-Varun).
The venues are assigned according to the order the pairs come out. So the first pair get Melbourne, second pair get Colombo etc.
I also can't be arsed with individual tosses for each match, so whoever's number comes out first in a pair has won the toss.
Get some poor neutral fecker to click on that link for us, and post the results once the drafting is finished.
Better grounds please. I had to play bloody Shakib because it was Karachi last time out and lost thanks to @Samid. Can we get a more well rounded set of grounds ? Or make it a historical thing. Pick all the grounds where the WC finals were held.We'll use the same venues as the test draft because I can't be arsed to change anything.

Give us a couple mins. Waiting for the Manager to be online and confirm our pick.
I meant only the Finals grounds. Which means you won't get 8 stadiums I guess. Or you can choose a random WC year and only play grounds from that country/countries.they're all basically on that list. lords has hosted it 4 times, melbourne 2x.
I don't mind taking colombo off and putting another english ground in.
Who has @KM's pick? @MJJ?

Damn, Nice Catch. You should be Mod. All Skills knows to do is say "I can't be arsed to.."
Hmm, that old fashioned cricket lover bit is probably true for meReally ? I can only think of two picks that have yet to be selected. One maybe because the quota for that nation is over and the other because he courts controversy.
Then I perfectly know one of whom who you are talking about. My only guess is the teams have exhausted their quota for that particular nation. Else he should have made his presence. He's an inside R5 sort of pick.Hmm, that old fashioned cricket lover bit is probably true for me
Fkin Lehmann.I'm just going to come out and say it, since no teams left to pick can choose from Australia. Alan Border and Darren Lehman miss out on the drafts.
