    How would you rank the greatest test teams of all-time?

    Compton would count as one of the main players in Hutton's England (1953 to 1954-5), and arguably Bedser (60@18). To include McKenzie, it needs to be "Early 1960s" - McKenzie's debut was in 1961.

    A "bid for position" draft: categories

    More clarification, plus a question: - The bids you're sending at this point should be the 11 numbers (adding up to $1,000,000) for your bids in the draft, not the players you want to pick. Also, I was intending that the bids are specific to the categories - however, I've had one set of bids...

    A "bid for position" draft: categories

    Since people have expressed interest (thanks!), some clarifications : - The XI you pick is for a Test match, though the players for categories 3, 4, 8, 10 and 11 don't have to have played Test cricket. - For category 9, "didn't keep wicket" means (as in 5) "wasn't picked as the wicket-keeper"...

    A "bid for position" draft: categories

    This is another "bid for position" draft, in which each participant gets $1,000,000 to bid for when they get to pick players: for more details on how these drafts work, see the first one. This is more complicated than the previous such drafts; I'm proposing it now to see if there's any...
