I have always had a special like for allrounders. It would be visible in most of my draft teams and my posts.

I also think with this draft starting from a 36 average (Bradman's bowling) the 1st 2 rounds were set up from allrounders, so there are many in these teams.

You missed the big fish there.Another team with Wilfred Rhodes , very popular .
I wondered if Sobers might be up at 4 and Engineer in lower middle-order but I do think the order you have listed does actually look better. Pothas could end the draft with 4 ATG batters (Dravid, Sobers and 2 others), already has a very impressive pace attack, a spinner that is arguably top 5 ever.
I was about to add and a 2nd spinner to support Laker as well, and then I realised!
honestbharani
Whatever it takes!!!
Monty Noble batting average 30.25
@honestbharani - Monty Noble is ineligible - you need to pick from Jarquis's pick of Kapil Dev (Bat 31.05) so someone with a batting or bowling average between 30.55 and 31.55

ah sorry.. read Kapil's avg as 30.05...
