Alphabetic draft

[stephen]

George Headley will be my next selection please

Well there goes that dilema. I was almost going to "have" to draft him if no one else picked him.

I have some choices - Haddin gets me next pick and a keeper. Holding gets me an ATG quick. Hayden gets me an opener and Harvey gets me a gun middle order bat.

After much deliberation and self flagellation, I have decided to pick Michael Holding as my next pick, locking in half an ATG attack alongside Grimmett.

Teuton - James Anderson, Bishan Bedi, Denis Compton, MS Dhoni, Richard Hadlee
Red Hill - Ian Botham, Adam Gilchrist, Wes Hall
Milenko47 - Abdul Qadir, Allan Border, Michael Clarke, Sunil Gavaskar, Wally Hammond
Michaelf7777777 - Les Ames, Greg Chappell, Aubrey Faulkner, WG Grace, George Headley
AndrewB - Curtly Ambrose, Richie Benaud, Alan Davidson, Jack Hobbs
Stephen - Ken Barrington, Rahul Dravid, Clarrie Grimmett, Michael Holding
Pothas - SF Barnes, Allan Donald, Len Hutton
Trundler - Warwick Armstrong, Geoff Boycott, Jock Cameron, Andy Flower, Imran Khan
Honestbharani - ​Neil Adcock, ​Eddie Barlow, AB de Villiers, Joel Garner, Jacques Kallis

With all the H names we won't have a change in player order for a while.

Michael -> Andrew -> Stephen -> Pothas

Do I pick again now?

 

[Red]

Sorry, I should read the rules. Changing my Harvey pick to Glenn McGrath

 

[Red]

I think Harvey is an inelligible pick as you are restricted to one player for each letter

Yep, see amended post above. Sorry.

I'll take Virat Kohli

RH actually goes before AZH; CricInfo lists all the 'Mc's and 'Mac's at 'Mac'. It's weird.

Wow, you are technically correct. The best kind of correct.

 

[stephen]

Poor AZH

 

[Pothas]

Inzaman-ul-Haq

 

[trundler]

And that brings with it a great relief. Malcolm Marshall.

Yeah, always too big a hope for me to get him with that far to wait.

Edit: Oh dear, you have Imran and Marshall...

I might be taking drafting too seriously if I'm up at 5 to make my pick as soon as possible
