Singapore

Sadly Singapore aren't featured in the game. If you'd like to manage either Jamaica, Kenya or Scotland you're definitely welcome to join.

Singapore

heh

 

[jimmy101]

Alrighty so I think as of now we've just about gotten the maximum amount of people who are willing to join (12 in total, great turnout). So it's time to get some people to take charge of the as-of-yet unselected teams. New people are still welcome to join, but the following sides are up for grabs should anyone want to manage a second team.

Netherlands (reserved for AndrewB if Magrat doesn't join)
Jamaica
Kenya
Scotalnd.

 

[cnerd123]

andruid has to play as Kenya. Drop him a message?

 

[jimmy101]

Is he into simming? Will PM him anyway.

 

[cnerd123]

I'm sure he'd enjoy it.

 

[Magrat Garlick]

Yeah Netherlands. Thanks Jimmy for holding a spot free

[jimmy101]

Sweet that just leaves Jamaica, Kenya & Scotland up for grabs. Hopefully someone will give them a good home.

Also, those of you who are yet to post your 15 man squad please do so when ready.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

I'll be happy to grab Jamaica Jamaica

 

[cnerd123]

Man SCC is gonna crush us all

He easily has all the best teams.

I mean my HK side is an all-star associate team, but we can't compete with anyone who has actual Test cricketers to call from.

Having said that, if I do win a game, it will be glorious

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Jamaica squad:


1. Chris Gayle /o
2. Marlon Samuels /o
3. Jerome Taylor o
4. Nikita Miller o
5. Wavell Hinds /o
6. Andre Russell /o
7. Carlton Baugh+ /
8. Daren Powell o
9. Jermaine Lawson o
10. Brandon King /
11. John Campbell /
12. Brendan Nash /
13. Sheldon Cottrell o
14. Nkruma Bonner /o
15. Jermaine Blackwood /

Wanted to include Leon Garrick in there, seeing that him and Gayle were a good opening pair...but I can't let my guy Brandon King down. John Campbell makes it in the third opener spot.... Fabien Allen woulf have made it, but Blackwood edged him out due to Blackwood's superb season this year where he made 248 in his latest innings. And I already included Nikita Miller in there, so no sense putting Allen there. Might be too batting heavy, I don't know yet.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

I'm gonna start with this batting order:

1. Gayle * 6
2. King
3. Hinds 8
4. Samuels 7
5. Blackwood 9
6. Baugh +
7. Russell 5
8. Taylor 2
9. Powell 3
10. Miller 4
11. Lawson 1

SUBS: Nash, Campbell, Bonner, Cotterell

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Guyana possible batting order:

1. Fudadin 6
2. Hetmyer
3. Sarwan 7
4. Shiv 8
5. Johnson*
6. Reifer 5
7. Bramble +
8. Paul 3
9. Permaul 4
10. Shepherd 2
11. King 1

SUBS: Deonarine, McGarrell, Bishoo, Smith

I'm assuming we have trial games prior to the start of the main tournament. If not, then both of my squads will be modified as needed.

 

[cnerd123]

**** me that Jamaica team is a Test quality team at its best.

Long tail tho

Yeah, will be fixed as needed.

I'll have a crack at Scotland.

 

[jimmy101]

Excellent. Just Kenya left.
