Sheep Draft version 6.0

[OverratedSanity]

What if the player has a batting/bowling average of >100?

 

[NUFAN]

For question 11.1, if a player played in the 2000s, we may select him with batting/bowling avg. of 10 or less?

9.99 or less, yes.

What if the player has a batting/bowling average of >100?

I hadn't really considered that but say someone has a bowling average of 136, I will accept if he played in the 1930s.

or no one did because everyone thought going for someone else was smarter!

There's always one, though.

 

[Shady Slim]

we found who got bradman

Regardless, I'm pretty pleased with my pick for Q12 and with my team so far. Just need one good pick to remove Llewelyn from the team(even though he isn't actually terrible for the team's balance). Screwed myself a bit in Q11 when I didn't realise Chanders had already been chosen. Tried to be a bit too smart

Pretty great team if I say so myself. Love the awesomely contrasting opening combo of Sehwag and Sutcliffe, middle order is lovely, Steyn-Waqar-Clarke is just about the meanest pace attack possible, with Warne and Goddard rounding off the attack.

Wait, you don't have Warne, you have Charlie Llewellyn. I have Warne.
