Hi Ike,

I am tempted to put Holder into the all rounders group even though he isn't a batting all rounder. However a number of people have picked already who might have taken him had he been an option. I should have thought of more West Indian options when putting this together.

I kind of feel like you could've added some more West Indians to general to these groups. Taylor in Seamer 1, Roach in Seamer 2, Samuels in Middle Order 2, Bishoo in Spinner. Game still works fine without them so it's not a big deal but it would have been cool to give people the option I think. Being able to pick Gabriel but not Taylor just feels weird to me.

Perhaps 4 person groups could have accommodated that, which is an idea for next time, but not with three person groups.

The group Gabriel is in is designed to test people's knowledge of international depth players.

Everyone knows who they are, but it is more impressive to have them rated in your mind in enough detail to rate them against like for like bowlers.

Your choice will be Jordan if in a one in a million chance they both play or likelier if Jordan plays instead of. Woakes is only listed as a replacement option.

Yeah I get why the Gabriel group is a thing; I just thought it'd make sense to have some groups have four players in them.

I'm not sure that Jordan is likelier to play, what are you basing that assumption on?

 

[FBU]

I have 25 points already for wickets and 71 points for runs .
