[randycricfreak]

I picked the year for KP as 2005 not 2009

 

[AndrewB]

I picked the year for KP as 2005 not 2009

Now corrected.

 

[Himannv]

Just realized that srbhkshk's team is awesome.

 

[weldone]

Just realized that srbhkshk's team is awesome.

Yes, but sadly he has picked wrong dates for most of the players. Who picks de Silva of 2003 over de Silva of 1996-99?

 

[Himannv]

Yes, but sadly he has picked wrong dates for most of the players. Who picks de Silva of 2003 over de Silva of 1996-99?

Yeah, that's a strange one. Even if he didn't see much of de Silva, the stats would have told him the story there.

Anyway picking the peak is fairly tricky. A lot of players I'm looking at have amazing peaks really early in their career if you only look at the numbers, but from experience I feel they really came into their own at a different time and the stats do back that idea to some extent. I don't think I've made a single pick that was at the exact peak, so it's been tough despite giving it a reasonable amount of thought..

This last pick has been doing my head in for quite a while to be honest. I'm concerned about getting the right kind of player in. I had most of the others planned out way earlier, but I've struggled with this one. I suspect it will either make or break my team.

 

[srbhkshk]

Mustafizur Rahman - 20 May 2017.

 

[srbhkshk]

Anyway, clearly I have ****ed up most of the date choices here, so I demand that the draft be decided the old-fashioned way.

 

[randycricfreak]

TM Dilshan will pick date later

 

[AndrewB]

Clive Lloyd 21-Jun-79
Joe Root 28-Dec-17

 

[Teuton]

Just realized that srbhkshk's team is awesome.

Don't we all have awesome teams though? Basically the top 60 players in ODI history across 6 teams is always going to look great.
