ODI Descending Draft

[JOJOXI]

Okay I have that as 11 confirmed - will start at 9am Sunday - first round is free for all. Typing from my phone atm but will reply to this message with times in other countries and tag all confirmed entrants in that post - having a look 9am UK time equates to 8pm New Zealand time so hopefully should work for everyone


Anyone is more than welcome to join after the start time and before the start of Round 2

9am UK
1pm Pakistan
1.30pm India
4pm Perth
5.30pm Adelaide
6pm Sydney
8pm New Zealand

@JOJOXI @honestbharani @HookShot @Teuton @CricAddict @Line and Length @trundler @kingkallis @Pothas @Bitmap @mr_mister

also @ankitj are you in?

 

[trundler]

Yes, it works out very well for all time zones which is why I set it as the standard.

Can we have a rule that one cannot edit the pick in a free for allround? If player is taken, then re-pick must be a new post.

 

[Himannv]

Really interested in taking part since it's ODI but I'm unlikely to be online too much until Wednesday or so.

 

[HookShot]

Can I pick??

 

[CricAddict]

Can I pick??

Yes, but only tomorrow at 9 am UK time.

Agreed

All posts in Round 1 shall not be edited. If a drafter wishes to change their pick they should make a new post rather than editing their existing post

Hey, I will sit this one out.

@Himannv if you are able to make a R1 pick I'd be happy to make picks on your behalf until Wednesday if you message me a couple picks you want to make

Thanks for the offer mate, but I think I should sit out of this one.

* Each XI must have a minimum of 3 players from a nation not in top 9 of ODI rankings as of April 5th (For clarity that is all associate nations plus Afghanistan, Ireland and Zimbabwe)

Posting for the sake of clarity this will include players who have played for multiple nations if one of those nations meet this criteria. Thankfully apart from one or 2 players it shouldn't have too big of an impact.

 

[HookShot]

If a post-1994 player also happens to be an associate player then does the player fill both categories?

I suspect that each of the three categories are separate, but just clarifying.

They do fill both categories. So if all 3 associates were 1995 debuts onwards then you could have 5 players pre 1995 debut, 3 'associate' players with debuts of 1995 or later and 3 other players with debuts of 1995 or later.

But as long as you have no more than 5 players with debuts pre 1995 and have at least 3 players who have played for an ODI side not in top 9 then you have flexibility within those restrictions.

 

[JOJOXI]

Likewise if you pick Andy Flower (ODI debut 1992) he will count towards 1 of the 3 'associate' players but will also count as 1 of your 5 pre 1995 debut players as well
