Outrageous I fecking knew I should have picked Fanie first

 

[crappycraperson]

Can we remove the 3 cricketers from a country limit? I want more pakistanis in my team

Waaaaaaaaa.. I forgot all about that!

 

[Red-Indian]

Outrageous I fecking knew I should have picked Fanie first

Well i did warn you.

 

[kps88]

Can we remove the 3 cricketers from a country limit? I want more pakistanis in my team

I had no idea this rule existed.

 

[crappycraperson]

Well i did warn you.

Yeah, Swann was my second pick after him. He is gone now as well.

 

[crappycraperson]

Somebody PM Zing and Donaldol

 

[Red-Indian]

I had no idea this rule existed.

It's right there in the OP. i suggested we drop it but nobody else was interested so i thought everybody was okay with it.

 

[Interval]

It's right there in the OP. i suggested we drop it but nobody else was interested so i thought everybody was okay with it.

For one, I'd love for this rule to be dropped since my Pakistani quota is full but the rule makes sense.

Anyone PM'd Donaldo? i want my pick today.

 

[KM]

The rule make sense and it's been their since the start

 

[Donaldo]

Saeed Anwar

 

[mightberight]

Looks like I'm playing up to this board's English contingent, but I think he's great value here and is easily the best test keeper-batsman left.

 

[MJJ]

Jonathan Trott

[Red-Indian]

Crappy's taking Stuart McGill. Posting from my iPad and i don't know how to do a picture.

Last quality spinner so great pick in my opinion. If not for Warne....

So now are we stuck on DE, or will he be on.

 

[Red-Indian]

I've PM'ed him but it's pretty late for him on Saturday night.

 

[crappycraperson]

Thanks Red-Indian.

And yeah, Macgill was a good spinner. Was destined to be in the shadow of Warne. And after Warne made his come back for one of his lay off, momentarily there was a question- mark as to if he should immediately replace Macgill. Of course, soon enough he showed the different in class between the two. But still I would put him in the same class as someone like Swann today.

 

[crappycraperson]

Some interesting teams now.

Take mightbright, his bowling is all set now and pretty good one as well. But now he will have a hard time shoring up his batting.

 

[Desert Eagle]

I pick Javagal Srinath

 

[Red-Indian]

Nice pick and one you needed.

I think i'll wrap my bowling attack up since I don't know if any will be left when this comes back down.

Was a one man attack for years - 216 wickets at 28.14 with no support whatsoever. Also a very useful batsman with a test batting average of 22.

[NM]

KPS is next RI. Can you PM him

 

[ha_rooney]

Good choice with Streak, he was going to be my final bowling choice.

Hopefully I'll get my turn in the next few hours...

 

[Red-Indian]

KPS is next RI. Can you PM him

Done sorry...I thought you were next.

 

[kps88]

I'm going to go with someone I was too young to see live and have only heard/read about. This could be a terrible mistake, but I don't see many fast bowlers left that excite me.

Geoff Lawson

 

[Red-Indian]

I barely remember him myself...interestingly never played a test against India which is probably why. Not much of a vote getter I suppose but average looks pretty decent at 30.56.
