I like the look of all 4 teams. Skills has quitely put together a very good team as well. Harshad and Mani's are also v. good. Should be cracking SFs!

Btw, who did Aldo go for in R2 which was a fail ? Sachin ?
Thoughts on who we should bench now guys?
You'll be surprised to know of my love and admiration for the big man.WTF @Aldo. You could have let me have Ambrose
Depends on where you are playing.
No, went for McGrath in Round 2, knew it was a fail so also submitted the last pick.
What's your 12 man squad?
I read TMH's post that said Aldo failed R2 and you passed R3 and he went onto pass R3.
I could have had Marshall, Hall, Ambrose and Snow
Semi Final Match ups:
Mani vs Skills @ Lord's, London
@harshad vs Aldo @ Eden Gardens, Kolkata
Everyone let me know their 12th man. We can then have toss. Tomorrow start should be OK for everyone I assume. Both matches will start tomorrow only.

Must have missed that post. I considered going for McGrath but went for Trueman thinking he might have been picked already.
McGrath.
How so? We have to pick Sachin over one of our middle order batsman.
Hanif
Wessels
Kanhai
Crowe
Kallicharran
Clarke
Dujon
Holding
Garner
Tyson
Gupte
Sachin
Anyway, epic teams all round.
Get the draw out of the way, @The Man Himself ? I need to go to sleep, been a couple of days since I haven't.

Absolutely. This draft has been immense from start to finishAnyway, epic teams all round.

I guess the bowlers and keeper need to stay. Clarke would perhaps need to be dropped.
Garner vs McGrath revisited
Trumble vs Qadir.
Nice !
Trumble vs Qadir.
Nice !
Is that MIchael Clarke? If so Sachin over Clarke for me.
That's what I'm thinking too. Simply between kalli and Clarke and kalli was the much better batsman imo but still want to get some opinions in.
Yup.
Could have been Tendulkar vs Lara.
Are you talking about the final ?Could have been Tendulkar vs Lara.
I am definitely going to fire up my laptop tonight and edit it out. SF time, deserves it.
@Skills.. ffs, update your excel .
.Was thinking the same
Haha not at all, you know what they say at press conferences - "only concentrating on the next game."Are you talking about the final ?
That explains why you "rested" Barry Richards. Cometh the man, cometh the hour eh ?!Haha not at all, you know what they say at press conferences - "only concentrating on the next game."

May or may not be coming back.
Clarke for me, too.
Niceeeeee
Cheers!
@The Man Himself Asif has been caught spot fixing and is now unfortunately in jail for this match.
Can I expect a little less amount of mocking in your write up this time?
How do you feel going up against your 1st choice keeper and the guy you refer to as Sir Clyde Walcott?Can I expect a little less amount of mocking in your write up this time?
Isn't Aldo playing against me?How do you feel going up against your 1st choice keeper and the guy you refer to as Sir Clyde Walcott?
I feel good, because it's not me who's facing Sir ClydeHow do you feel going up against your 1st choice keeper and the guy you refer to as Sir Clyde Walcott?
, it's you. As far as my order of favourites in three Ws go: Worrell, Walcott and Weekes. Walcott was Gilchrist before Gilchrist was Gilchrist.
