Season 10 Charity Matches - Availability check

[cameeel]

Is there some kind of timeframe as to when the OD Random sides will be announced?

 

[Loony BoB]

They'll be announced tomorrow evening (GMT) at the very latest. If I get enough time at work to sort it all out, I'll have them posted today.

The following players have been invited to take on captaincy roles for the charity OD series...

SE Fuller (CW Blue)
MW Wilson (CW Black)
JP McNamara (CW Colts)
BC Cunningham (CW Green)
SA Bennett (CW Red)

If they could reply ASAP regarding this, that would be great. If they could also let me know what they would like to nickname their sides, that would be great.

Also, in an interesting turn of events, I just noticed that all four of the CW Dev League captains currently involved in this series (Kyle has yet to sign up) will be on the same team. One of the above captains is therefore going to have a real headache keeping them all satisfied with field placings.

Good luck to all captains selected Have fun when the 4 captains are telling you what to do... haha just dont give them a bat

 

[chaminda_00]

Not this time around... too many of some types of players and not enough of others to make such a thing work out. eg. not one of Green's four keepers signed up!

I think that might be the second time I've made that mistake. Oops.

That's a blow, I was looking forward to another Spin vs Seam match.

Is there any particular theme to these teams? I assume we're not talking about the batting, bowling etc XIs.

Me? Whatever for?

 

[Loony BoB]

Don't want it, steds?

Fuller: Nah, the goal this time is to see how people who aren't commonly a captain take on the captaincy role. They'll be given a squad with 2-3 members of each Dev League team.

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

Well I have captained Blue for a chunk of this season and last season, but fair enough.

 

[Dravid]

Will there be more teams?

 

[Loony BoB]

Yeah, I'll be announcing the teams inside the next 24 hours. Hoping for Mike, Bryce, Sean and Jack to confirm that they're happy to captain their sides soon enough, though.

OD Batting XI - Provisional

Since Camps is already in the Bowling XI, the current Batting XI, provided they all sign up, is as follows...

A Crampton [blue] - confirmed
AL Feeney [red]
AP Chaulk [black] - confirmed
AP Cloete [blue]
BJ Goff [blue] - confirmed
I Markus [red]
JE Stedman [red] - confirmed
NG Scott [green] - confirmed
RJ Dauth [red] - confirmed
RJ Malone [green] - confirmed
SE Fuller [blue] - confirmed

Blewy has been invited to take on the role as captain for this side, with Sean Fuller invited to take on the role as vice captain. Please note that should enough of the Bowling XI opt out of the charity series, some of the Batting XI may be moved into the Bowling XI... however at least three of the Bowling XI would need to do this before it becomes a concern.

I'm up for that!

 

[Cloete]

I'll take it.

 

[Loony BoB]

Two cap'ns down, three to go.

 

[Hoggy31]

I put my hand up to keep and open the batting for the 5D Bowling XI.
