Quiz Draft

[Dan]

Confident on 6 of them.

Missed out on the long jump (despite thinking of the guy, and having looked it up a couple of days ago), the World Cup figures (damn those extra 10 runs), New Zealand's first test and the Indian Number 11.

 

[Eds]

Haha looked a couple of them up a few days ago. Good questions.

Struggling on a few though.

 

[Spikey]

oh so i got the long jump question wrong. hmmm. wonder who I got mixed up with there

 

[Furball]

Having a complete mind blank regarding the 2nd umpire at the Oval. Are half points available?

 

[Furball]

Also, I love the fact that I looked up what the XI would be if you took the player with the highest individual score in each position, although I can't remember why I did that. Certainly been helpful.

 

[morgieb]

Nailed 5. Hope I get lucky on a few others.

 

[Somerset]

Victor Trumper.

 

[Furball]

Victor Trumper.

Damn you to hell.

Amazing how many people have been looking up random cricket facts and figures just days before they're asked in a quiz where people are bound by honour as to whether they cheat or not.

[Agent Nationaux]

Really wanted Laker.

 

[Cabinet96]

Reckon spinners, along with keepers are the most important picks, because quality ones are in short supply.

 

[marc71178]

Really wanted Laker.

Should've picked him then, it's not rocket science.

Ricky Ponting please

 

[zaremba]

sent.

blub.

5/10 I think. Or 6/11 if he lets me have Launceston this time.

Still, it's all irrelevant, no-one wants the players I want.

 

[Spikey]

Yeah I'm pretty pleased to have sorted out my keeper/all-rounder and spinner by round 3. might leave me in trouble getting batsmen and seamers though
