    Damnit; I was gonna pick Franklin first up too. Gun player for something like this, plus I love him. Admittedly you love a little bit more though, so fair play.

    I wish I wasn't first up. :(
     
  3. Gazza GJ Weaver

    Central Stags

    Brendon McCullum (wk)

    I probably would've taken Franklin before Bond tbh, even ignoring the fact that I love him. Bond's obviously more valuable at higher levels but as the standard of the opposition goes down the gap between their bowling effectiveness gets smaller and the gap between their batting effectiveness only increases.

    Probably shouldn't, but I know that if I don't someone else might before my next turn, so I'll run with..

    I'd say a decent all-rounder will be easier to come by later on than a decent fast bowler.
     
  7. Gazza GJ Weaver

    Since there isn't much of a good standard in wicket keeping I took the ideal man.
     
  8. Cribbage RG Cribb

    Franklin's both at this level though. :p

    He was pretty narrowly behind Bond for me admittedly.
     
  12. Howsie DP Howell

    Haha yeah good pick really. The standard drops very quickly after McCullum. I couldn't bring myself to pick him that early though.
     
  13. Gazza GJ Weaver

    There is so many Batsman/Bowlers that are an alright quality though.
     
  14. Howsie DP Howell

    Already made the list of players I'll refuse to pick, funnily enough they all play for the Stags :ninja:
     
  15. Athlai JJD Heads

    I can see wicket keepers being of very low priority now though.
     
  16. Jabba HJ Bots

    Got the worst position myself to start with.

    Towards the end but not last. Is such a bad spot to judge who to pick.
     
  17. Cribbage RG Cribb

    Would've preferred that spot tbh; Sinclair would've been a slightly more justified pick there.
     
  18. Athlai JJD Heads

    lol @ picking Sinclair
     
  19. Ari PM Jackson

    Sinclair is a decent pick the guy has been scoring a crazy amount of runs over the years.
     
  20. Athlai JJD Heads

    Sinclair as the FIRST batsman to be picked is definitely lolworthy.
