Quiz Draft

[Agent Nationaux]

My answer for 1 was also correct.

 

[Furball]

My answer for 1 was also correct.

No it wasn't. The only way it would have been correct is if only 1 international century had been scored before 2005.

My answer for question 1 (most sixes) is also correct, but as it's not the answer Jake has emailed me, I'm counting it as wrong.

I'm disappointed my answer of "Hitting a six in all forms of cricket/something to do with sixes/he's hit that out of the park/six runs" failed to receive any marks.

 

[Furball]

I read the "he's hit that out the park" in a Tony Greig voice, so really you're lucky I didn't dock you points tbh.

 

[Cabinet96]

I was thinking about answering, "Causing thousands of people to leave the ground after a dismissal".

 

[Himannv]

Being a bit harsh on them Furbs.

Not at all harsh. I had plenty of opportunities to bite the bullet and get this done but I mistakenly decided to go out with friends and while away my time with seemingly endless events which I simply couldn't resist being a part of.

I only knew 6, 7, 8 and 9 so I doubt I would have been too high up anyway and it does make things challenging to come up with a good team from the positions I get myself into. Despite the inevitable intoxication, I'm definitely fine with the decisions taken and I like drafts that move along in a timely manner.

 

[Howe_zat]

Thanks very much Furball.

 

[Furball]

No worries.

 

[zaremba]

I think my answer for Q3 may have been incorrectly marked wrong. Am outraged.

 

[Spikey]

Q1 really could have gone anywhere. I put down most wickets so i'm happy. I'm still awful in the tiebreakers.

 

[morgieb]

Annoying, that's the 2nd round where I didn't correctly guess anything (yes I got answers correct, but I was very close to 100% certain on all of them.

 

[Spikey]

Marc's time is up. I decided to wait a bit because I wasn't sure whether to pick a batsman or a bowler so I wasn't in that much of a rush to pick, but I'll move the game on. And so I'll pick the holder of the greatest bowling performance ever, Bob Willis, who I must admit I thought about picking when I picked Larwood so I'm happy to take in the 8th round. Although I'll no doubt regret picking a bowler by the time next round starts.

Geoff Boycott
Gordon Greenidge
Ian Chappell (*)
Adam Gilchrist (+)
Ian Botham
Harwood Larwood
Bob Willis
Clarrie Grimmet

Can't stop picking poms.

Btw, Adam Gilchrist's stats batting between 3 and 6: 24 innings, 3 not outs, 1121 runs, high score of 144, average of 53.38, 4 tons and 5 50's

Cheers GF - I absolutely hate it when a person misses their turn then 5 or 6 people jump in before they get a chance to get on. As it turns out I'm more in need of a batsman anyway so will take VVS Laxman

 

[Spikey]

hey i gave you chance. you just didn't wake up at 5am for some unknown reason

There was no offence intended, so I hope none was taken. Just didn't want to hold up the process by a couple more houres.

Plus just a little anxious about my pick.

cheers.

Turns out I should have jumped ahead and made my pick
