Champions Trophy 2025 Fantasy Auction Draft

[Kenneth Viljoen]

We have 9 below players left for 9 remaining slots. For the 10th round, since it will be the final round, I will propose to have the rules as below as you and L&L have proposed.

1. Please provide one main bid and one alternative bid only for the number of slots that are available to you and within the bid amount you have. You will get the alternative bid player if first choice is claimed by a higher bidder (LL's idea)
2. If the bids are still equal, whoever has the least highest paid player in the squad will get the bid player.(SS's idea)

	Role	Player Name
1​	Bat	JF Mcgurk (AUS)	Aus
2​	Bowl	Ben Dwarshius (AUS)	Aus
3​	Bowl	Tanveer Sangha (AUS)	Aus
4​	AR	Gulbadin Naib (AFG)	Afg
5​	Bowl	Nangeyalia Kharote (AFG)	Afg
6​	Bowl	Naveed Zadran (AFG)	Afg
7​	Bat	Usman Khan (PAK)	Pak
8​	Bowl	Akif Javed (PAK)	Pak
9​	Bowl	J Duffy (NZ)	NZ

Akif Javed is no longer in the Pakistani CT squad .
Haris Rauf has recovered and takes his place

 

[Kenneth Viljoen]

So @Himannv won Haris Rauf before he was ruled out in the auction , I guess he will have to decide whether he wants Rauf and release one of his AR/FB or Rauf will be available

This complicates things.

This complicates things.

My exact thoughts. At a loss on how to resolve this. Let me think of a solution. Please provide one if any of you have.

I think what KV says works best here

 

[Bitmap]

Yeah Kenneth's suggestion looks apt to me

 

[Teuton]

Classic Pakistan

 

[ataraxia]

Is it too much of a stretch to say that Himannv does not bid for Bosch last round and only bid for Hardie, which he won with $92?

 

[Himannv]

Yeah I think I still win Hardie with 92 so I think Bosch is available for selection.

 

[CricAddict]

Yeah I think I still win Hardie with 92 so I think Bosch is available for selection.

Great. This resolves things. So, Corbin Bosch is available for selection as well in the 10th round. Please bid for him too.

Doesn't this solution mean that Bitmap won Bosch?

Himannv is releasing one player from his team and he chose Bosch that should be the solution , let's not overcomplicate things please we still have to choose captains , this Draft should have been completed by now we can't afford to waste anymore time the Champions Trophy begins on Wednesday.

But Himmanv got a bigger purse for Rauf, without which he can't bid for Bosch and Bitmap gets him

That's fine you can add all my players to round 10 too I withdraw

Dude...... What's the big deal here?? I am sorry if I offended you in anyways.

Bosch was made available for Round 10 now he isn't, it's really frustrating how unorganised this whole competition is that I rather not be a part of it. I've already bidded for Bosch, I rather not play if it's going to be this unorganised.

I second KV frustrations. I've changed my bids twice already because different players may or may not become available. I think we should stick with CA's last list of available players. I won't be party to another change.

I respect both of your views and personally don't have a dog in the fight, though don't think personally it's really much a big deal.

 

[Bitmap]

I think it's fair to let Bosch go to Round 10.

@Kenneth Viljoen please no need to withdraw mate

I'll play on condition the Round 10 list that CricAddict made does not change. My captain is Steve Smith for the tournament. Thank you.
