Ascending batting average draft (tests)

[Coronis]

Clarrie Grimmett (13.92)

 

[ankitj]

Hope Line & Length can pick quickly so I can get done with my pick as well! Been a long wait. haha.

 

[Jarquis]

Ugh, I'm dumb.

 

[weldone]

This is great. Don't remember when was the last time a cw draft had as many as 17 participants.

 

[mr_mister]

i'm still scratching my head at honestbharani's first pick haha... did you happen to forget the picking order format?

 

[trundler]

Feel like I threw the advantage away with FST but genuine ATG pacers were running out

 

[mr_mister]

Ugh, I'm dumb.

Grimmett and Laker are pretty much equal as bowlers IMO, though the slightly lower average does make Grimmett the better pick yeah. shouldn't be too costly though i'd imagine

Wait no longer my friend.

Frank Tyson (10.95)

Well at the time it made no difference as they were going to put me in the same spot in the queue.... I completely overlooked the fact that whoever took Grimmett would pick before me.

Remains to be seen whether the Asif/Daniel combo pays off. Relying on getting an elite seamer still and hoping 2 ATGs plus two very good and complimentary bowlers is enough.

Too many competing formats here for tracking progress of the draft.

I suggest whoever can update it fastest should do the tracking. Seems like it's hard to beat Weldone on the enthusiasm for updating quickly!

 

[Line and Length]

weldone's format is easiest to follow. However, any contributions are fine while weldone is off line.

 

[honestbharani]

yeah, I am fine with both but weldone's is a wee bit easier to follow due to the bolding and stuff. I am guessing Marcus used a table and had it sorted or something on the latest pick's batting average?

 

[trundler]

Meanwhile I still don't know how to add headers, bullets or tables

At your age, I think I had not even learnt to use emails. So you are doing fine

 

[Jarquis]

Funny how people?s brains work differently i guess but I?d always have the important information (i.e. the averages picks are sorted by) in the first column.

Having that information (a) as far away from the info it relates to (person picking) and (b) inconsistently spaced (for some people it?s their first pick, whilst for others their third) makes zero sense to me

I actually like your format, but I don't know how to replicate that. When I try your format, the columns are not aligned. How do you do it? I tried using tabs and pasting from excel - but some of the numbers go to left or right.

Paste it into notepad and use tabs to align it all in there before copying into

[weldone]

ok and then bold the usernames individually? too much work each time i have to edit the list. i'll stick to my old format
