Slightly Wacky Draft

Cricketer Of The Year
A Wacky Draft but nothing too wacky about my team.
1. Jack Hobbs / (5410 runs @ 56.95)
2. Graeme Smith / capt. (9265 runs @ 48.26)
3. Viv Richards /o (8540 runs @ 50.24)
4. Sachin Tendulkar /o (15921 runs @ 53.79)
5. Frank Worrell /o (3860 runs @ 49.49)
6. Ian Botham /o (5200 runs @ 33.55; 383 wickets @ 28.4)
7. Mark Boucher / wkp (5515 runs @ 30.30)
8. Andy Roberts o (202 wickets @ 25.6)
9. John Snow o (202 wickets @ 26.6)
10. Waqar Younis o (373 wickets @ 23.5)
11. Derek Underwood o (297 wickets @ 25.8)
A top order with undeniable ATG inclusions, a 'keeper with 5 Test centuries to his name, a 4 man pace attack and a clever spinner - all proven wicket takers at the highest level. For variety, Worrell, Tendulkar and Richards add to the bowling with plenty of Test wickets to their names.

Congrats to all of you...all the best!
I just hope my guys can compete.

Conrad Hunte with a 1950's debut so is ineligible as it was dictated for a 1960s debut - apologies if my table specifying 1960s player rather than debutant confused things. - @SillyCowCorner1

One of those drafts when everyone is going to have an amazing team but enjoy the balance with the batting and obviously the bowling is quite good.

@AndyZaltzHair trundler has skipped you, so you'll make your 5 picks after the end of R11. I think you pick one 1960s debutant and four normal players.
