Thoughts?
Does a wicketkeeper always have to be a wicketkeeper? I mean, can Gilchrist just exchange gloves with someone else halfway through an innings?

How high could I push Gilchrist in the order? I've currently got him penciled in at 6
Wrong team bro lolLooking at you team you can play Aravinda at 3, Inzy 4 and shuffle between Gilly and Amarnath at 5/6.
Wrong team bro lol
Better play him at 4 or Taylor at 4and Gilly at 5Wrong team bro lol
AMs don't always make things faster. Sometimes if the AM doesn't feel comfortable posting the pick himself it takes even longer as he'll wait for his partner to come online and discuss together. Also if both are in the same time zone it doesn't really help, since that's the main problem we seem to be having.Every team has to have an AM from the next draft. Even if we have less teams, we would at least finish early. 10 teams is ideal, so 20 players.
The whole point of having an AM is to be in different time zones. Thats what we should do from next time. Its working well with me and Anant. We discuss our picks in advance. Even if there are 5 picks to go before we pick we have a list of 6 players to choose from. If one is away the other posts. Simple really.AMs don't always make things faster.

Yeah if it's declared from the beginning it could work. E.g. reduce pick time limit to 4-6 hours and then leave it up to people to decide how to manage it?The whole point of having an AM is to be in different time zones.

Exactly. One person Asia/subcontinent/Aus paired with one person from the States/UK. There is a minimum 5 hour difference between the two zones. If we absolutely can't get an AM then that person can get 7 hours. If you have an AM then you get 5 hours.Yeah if it's declared from the beginning it could work.

Just noticed you guys have three spinners, where we have one spinner friendly pitch. Interesting approach to the game.Right you are.
One spinner is 12th man. We haven't picked a keeper yet. We wanted two recognized spinners for all three games no matter the pitch.Just noticed you guys have three spinners, where we have one spinner friendly pitch. Interesting approach to the game.
Still some good keepers left to be picked hope you find one.Three spinners in a team is not a bad approach especially in sub continent pitches.One spinner is 12th man. We haven't picked a keeper yet. We wanted two recognized spinners for all three games no matter the pitch.
