Pick the Other Guys' Team Draft

Red

The normal awards that everyone else has
Can't be LH bats since Greenidge is selected.
Didn't think it would be slips because I figured Tavare should be there, but I must admit I'm not really the most knowledgeable on who is good at fielding where in Cricket matches before I started watching.
Slips. Didn't know Tavare was a good slipper TBH
 

NUFAN

Y no Afghanistan flag
I guess what I remember mainly about Tavvers is that would-be drop where he just managed to bump the ball up for the first slip to catch. But apparently he was good overall.

Remember you gave yourself Lara in the opening round, so we only 'gave' other drafters 10 players.
