[OverratedSanity]

Mahela's my captain btw.

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Voted for OS, Fred and PEWS

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Really some great teams but at the end had to choose 3. This is the hardest part.

 

[Howe_zat]

I expect to get a solid two votes this time as usual

At least I rate my side this time around though

 

[watson]

The KingKallis and Camo999 XIs really do it to me. Finding a third choice however is tricky.........Howe in the running.

 

[fredfertang]

Very tricky - have to go for Mr Mister because of his choice of captain and Camo because I just like the look of that team - strongest in absolute terms is, I suspect, KK, so his is my third

 

[OverratedSanity]

Voted for Watson, JC and Howe.

I'd vote for myself seeing as I obviously deserve more than one vote but you guys suck and would have a big waaaah.

 

[jimmy101]

Voted for KK, Watson & Fred.

 

[mr_mister]

Howe and Camo because of their batting lineups. No-one really has a standout bowling attack IMO... I guess a limitation of the draft

CricZo XI

This was one of the most amazing draft we have played in recent times and it literally flew. Thanks for this draft Red Hill.

I am pretty happy with my team here. From 1 to 11, I never had to compromise on a single thing. Good openers, solid middle order, amazing all-rounders, pace, spin, controlled medium pace and good wicket keeper.

[kingkallis]

Howe, Red Hill, Watson gets my vote.

It was painful to vote for Watson since he is leading but...

 

[OverratedSanity]

Me JC and AZH getting massively underrated here I reckon.

 

[watson]

Someone needs to vote for KK otherwise he'll get runner-up again for the gazzillionth time.

 

[kingkallis]

Someone needs to vote for KK otherwise he'll get runner-up again for the gazzillionth time.

It came to my mind
