Find it interesting that Imran is generally rated as a marginally superior cricketer to Hadlee (and not sure I'd necessarily disagree with that), and certainly seems to makes more people's Greatest Test XIs (usually competing with Miller) as the 2nd allrounder after Sobers, yet Hadlee almost always seems to be picked ahead of him in CW drafts. This time only one place ahead, but I've noticed this in quite a few of them. Could just be Hadlee's generally considered a better bowler and is usually the 2nd/3rd bowler to be picked along with Ambrose, McGrath and Akram after Marshall and Barnes.

Sam and Morgie to choose when able

Howe_zat > J_C > Mr_Mister
Not sure why Morgieb didn't pick yesterday evening as he was online. And I'm not sure why Howe just posted in the England draft but not here.

Three time-outs at the beginning of round 2 is a bit much I reckon.
