The first Cricket sheep thread

Id be lying if i said I did more than 10 minutes of research. Coupled with the fact I don't want cricket. You may all be Giving me too much credit :p
I think there were 4 standout batsmen picks and 3 got blocked. Either you got the 4th one or he's still out there.
 
So disappointed in myself at how I played that one. Hope Skizzo went for a certain someone to make me feel better about it all.

Well hopefully I did get him, but you all take a chance and go for him in the second round too :)

Yeah, I uhh, definitely went for him ;)
 
Never knew Hayden was so highly rated

same here,

How many will see the dreaded words player already picked

I'm going 3
 
Matthew Hayden is Zlatan Ibrahimovic of cricket, some people think they amazing with stats to back them up, while others 3 words spring to mind, flat track bully
 
Damn, my first block.

A fairly simple question. Does the player have had to officially retired from test before Sachin's Farewell match or is it enough that his last match happened before and he officially retired later on ? @KM

Hayden is hands down the most entertaining batsman in IPL for me. He wasnt explosive but him coming halfway down the track before the bowler even bowled makes him my favourite IPL player
 
Damn, my first block.

I think I know who you are talking about :P
 
When did you start following cricket? I've only been following for like 10 - 15 years, I reckon our knowledge is probably the same:)

I don't follow it at all :lol: only time I watch it is when visiting family back in England because my grandpa is into it, and my aunt played for Yorkshire and England women for a short period of time.

:lol: So obvious.
 
i'm left. If everybody has sent theirs in , I'll do mine. Else need time. At work
 
And another bloke's, who hasn't been picked yet, who I'd have anyday ahead of Hayden.
I know whom you speaking about and probable you would go at him by this pick or.next one.
I was discussing same with @Varun on this.
 
I haven't picked. Am i out of time?
Round 1 results were posted 13hrs back so I do think so unless I'm missing something. KM hasn't posted the results yet so maybe I am :confused:
 
Sorry. Has gotten ill. Won't accept picks which has bee posted to me after the 12 hour period
 
I've been at work for 18 hours now so it is what it is. Rules are rules

Wow, Dravid not picked i first round.
 
So Kumble blocked too! I thought Kumble should have been selected in round 1 of this criteria only. Most focused on batsmen instead but with Warne and Murali gone already, getting Kumble would have been great coup.
