Himannv

Hall of Fame Member
Ankitj gets my vote although I think there's very little in it. Bradman makes the difference for him.
 

kingkallis

International Coach
Himannv vs Bitmap - This one is more closer than it looks

Have to say, this draft's randomness is really making voting for teams a lot easier. And it meant the teams in the final are very strong.
 

kingkallis

International Coach
Bitmap: Gooch & Ponsford > Anwar & Edrich
Ankitj: Headley, Dravid, Jayawardene, Shakib < Bradman, Chappell, Weekes, Faulkner
Ankitj or Bitmap (+, /): Healy = Pant (Healy is a better gloveman while Pant is a game changer with the bat)
Bitmap: Ambrose, Garner, Procter, Gibbs, Hasan > Younis, Hall, Bishop, Ashwin, Faulkner

Bitmap wins it due to having superior bowling attack and better openers.
