  1. MrPrez CM Dyer

    He is my best bowler too tbf.
     
  2. HeathDavisSpeed HT Davis

    1. Abid Ali
    2. Anshuman Rath
    3. Brendan Taylor
    4. Steve(n) Smith (7/6)
    5. Shai Hope
    6. Ravi Bopara (6/7) / Daryl Mitchell (6/7)
    7. Bhuvneshwar Kumar (2)
    8. Dominic Bess (5)
    9. Jan Frylinck (4) / Nauman Ali
    10. Peter Siddle (1)
    11. Hasan Ali (3)

    or, maybe:

    1. Abid Ali
    2. Anshuman Rath (part time filth)
    3. Brendan Taylor
    4. Steve(n) Smith (part time filth)
    5. Shai Hope
    6. Ravi Bopara (as and when)
    7. Daryl Mitchell (as and when)
    8. Bhuvneshwar Kumar (2)
    9. Jan Frylinck (4) / Nauman Ali
    10. Peter Siddle (1)
    11. Hasan Ali (3)

    12. Dominic Bess
    13. Faheem Ashraf
    14. Nosaina Pokana
    15. Priyam Garg
    16. Nauman Ali/Jan Frylinck

    In terms of depth, I have:
    Back up batting all-rounders (Bopara/Mitchell)
    Back up bowling all-rounders (Bhuvneshwar/Ashraf - though Ashraf will not bat 7, methinks)
    Back up bowling is Pokana and Ashraf
    Back up opener is Brendan Taylor, and then both Bopara and Mitchell play or Garg comes in.
    Spinning is definitely looking a bit short, but fuck spinners.
     
  3. Athlai JJD Heads

    Haha thank you for that. This was always going to be the hardest team for me to figure out because of how unfamiliar I am with a lot of these guys. Pick Mujeeb imo.
     
  4. HeathDavisSpeed HT Davis

    Clearly looking for a leggie to fill the final spinner slot. Michael Rippon ftw.
     
    Magrat Garlick and Phlegm like this.
  5. Captain SSD Dong

    Tahir for some ODI h4x imo
     
  6. Cribbage RG Cribb

    Prez picked him already.
     
  7. Captain SSD Dong

    Ahh. Zahir then, heef loves himself some associates.
     
  8. HeathDavisSpeed HT Davis

    Not sure what to pick R17/18.

    Probably need an extra wicketkeeper/batsman but then for the 2nd pick, do I go middle order bat or spinner, even though the remaining options aren't particularly desirable. Probably should be a leggie if a spinner as already have SLA and ROS covered. That'd rule out Zahir or Mujeeb.
     
  9. Athlai JJD Heads

    Mujeeb imo.
     
  10. Athlai JJD Heads

    And Heino
     
  11. Captain SSD Dong

    Zahir bowls left arm chinaman

    Kamran Akmal for his wicketkeeping prowess. Oh yes. Pretty decent batting form in recent years. Should provide adequate backup.
    Zahir Khan. Why not.

  15. HeathDavisSpeed HT Davis

    Not a bad idea. Hoping for a Dutchie or a Bermudan in the 2nd XI draft.
