Back to me please.
There’s no rule as to whether you declare which XI was yours. More seasoned drafters can decide if there’s an advantage to others not knowing certain players aren’t available to you.

Sorry this notification didn't come through for some strange reason. Was just reading through the thread and noticed your post.

Okay we are good to go. Thirteen XIs were picked, one from every Test nation bar Australia who were split into two - up to cap 290, and 291 onwards.
The only selection rule is you can’t pick from your own team, unless there are no other players left.
XIs below, I’ve not adjusted formatting so they’re lifted exactly as presented to me.

3 questions.
Do we have to pick players to bat in the same position as they are listed in these teams (for instance, Does Kane Williamson have to open?)?
Which John Reid in the NZ team? I'm assuming JF Reid as batting 3.
Who honestly left Miller and O'Reilly out of the early era Oz team??!!

They don’t have to be in that position, no, good question. So if you want to pick Steve Smith as a frontline spinner, that’s your prerogative.
Will confirm with the relevant selector on the John Reid query.
I leave it up to the players to decide if they want to reveal which team they picked. So I won’t answer the last question

Haha, had to toss up between the two and went with Sir Paddles for a change.
