Round 2 showed the benefit of putting in a bid on every player, and nobody ended up paying top dollar unless they bid it.
The following have been drafted:
M Butcher - pskov

For the record, the 5 I added were WG Grace, K Miller, S Gavaskar, V Richards and M Hayden.
The highest winning bid was $2,500,003.
The winning bids were (from lowest to highest) - $1, $200,000, $506,000, $600,000, $700,000, $770,000, $800,000, $950,001, $955,000, $1,400,200, $1,500,000, $1,750,014, $1,900,300, $2,000,001, $2,100,000, $2,400,000, $2,500,003.
For round 3 we've got bowlers, and with only 1 non-submssion and 1 duplicate, my job was simpler:
T Alderman (Terry)
R Benaud (Richie)
A Davidson (Alan)
J Gillespie (Jason)
R Hadlee (Richard)
I Khan (Imran)
J Laker (Jim)
R Lindwall (Ray)

G Swann (Graeme)
P Symcox (Pat)
S Warne (Shane)
B Williams (Brad)
W Younis (Waqar)
Round 4 will be the 2nd batsman so can I have a nomination along with your bid - will set a deadline of 2pm Sunday GMT but if it's not up immediately it's because I'm doing something else, will try to ensure it's done at some point that afternoon.
