ATG Draft - Batting Averages

This is a fascinating draft. It's hard to know if it's best to pick the great players first or to look for value in other, lesser-known players. Basic strategy seems to be split between the two.

Has anyone got that list of players averaging less than 5? I can't seem to figure out a StatsGuru query for it.

Have no idea who to pick in the 20-30 range. Batting depth is a huge problem.

Don't give up. There is a very successful modern specialist batsman who averages between 20 and 25. He didn't play many tests as he had rotten luck with injury, but was a regular and reasonably celebrated selection in his team. Wisden described him as effective. He holds batting records.

Plus you have all the pre-Trumper and of WG Grace era players where between 20 and 25 was excellent and celebrated.

Just put a Batting Average of 0 to 5 in the Result Qualifications section of the Advanced Filter. Should work.
