ATG 'Mixed Experience' Test XI - Draft

[mr_mister]

trevor pitiful chappell?

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

pardon my ignorance but what does that stand for? i'm drawing a complete blank

who just got out to the best spin bowler in the world

 

[mr_mister]

someone in the ashes thread refered to smith as the people's chump so I guess it's him. That's annoying I had my hopes up it was some cricketer I've never heard of. Shame on you for that, thought I'd snagged Smithy!


I'll go with his currently disappointed coach, Darren Lehmann, who would have sent that ball to the ropes

Tiny Peruvian ****

Thank you Google. Now we know what the Gabban is sticking with.

 

[Agent TBY]

I'll take Vernon Philander.

who just got out to the best spin bowler in the world

Yasir Shah is not playing any International matches today...He may play a ODI on 11th

 

[honestbharani]

Say it in the other draft thread, sir.... When I picked him, you guys said Qadir was better...

 

[WalkingWicket]

I'll take Ryan 'Rhino' Harris, having played 27 Tests. Can be the workhorse of my pace attack.

Make sure you have a decent 5th bowler cause your work horse will miss a lot of games here and there.

 

[The Battlers Prince]

Yes sorry, TPC is Steve (the people's champ) Smith

 

[weldone]

Say it in the other draft thread, sir.... When I picked him, you guys said Qadir was better...

Yasir Shah being the best spin bowler today doesn't equate to him having a better career than Qadir

 

[J_C]

I'd pick Peter Pollock.

 

[Red]

Andrew Symonds

 

[Zinzan]

To confirm, for those test cricketers currently playing, it's the number of completed tests they've played at the time of selection, example.. Joe Root is currently on 27 tests & won't be 28 until this current match is completed.


Nufan is up, followed by HonestB & Coronis. Then Coronis gets first pick in the 30-36 test range.


I'll post the orders of rounds 5 & 6 when round 2 is complete.

 

[Coronis]

Andrew Symonds

Surprised he played so few.

 

[Zinzan]

Surprised he played so few.

Debuted late though and then a preference for fishing & lagers cut his career short didn't it?

 

[OverratedSanity]

Say it in the other draft thread, sir.... When I picked him, you guys said Qadir was better...

Still dumb to pick Yasir for 670-680 points when you can get Qadir/Macgill for barely 60 points more.

 

[The Battlers Prince]

Andrew Symonds

He adds as much as anyone in the field and solid in batting and his bowling varieties. I thought he'd played near 40

 

[NUFAN]

I can think of a couple that meet the criteria with Bruve Reid being the best.

Bruce Reid

 

[Zinzan]

HonestB next followed by Coronis.

Then Coronis gets first pick in the 30-36 test range...
