Haha ... I was kidding around. I thoroughly respect our opponents and it would be great if we could be competitive in the season

Feel free to joke around, it's all (mostly) friendly banter in here!

Joking? Joking can get you shot, Burpstein

I said kidding, not joking. Can I still get shot though ?

 

[Robertinho]

Most certainly.

 

[Burpey]

Well, better make the most of life then.

Back on topic, I am very much looking forward to the match against Bangladesh. Personally, I would like to take a few dismissals and make some runs. Hopefully I can help the side get off to a good start

 

[wrangler203]

By the way, when is the first match, i thought it was today?

 

[Burpey]

6th September I believe

That's the first pre-season match v Bangladesh

 

[Loony BoB]

As the dark horses of the CW Dev League, I'm very much looking forward to seeing how our team performs in the warmup matches. Very much looking forward to this season in general, and getting as involved as I can, as always.

Good luck to the side taking on Bangladesh, may we have a solid performances to cause worry to the other teams.

 

[Robertinho]

Hey, does anyone have a list of Colts players names and their CW name? And any idea of their averages?

Just to familiarise myself with the team

 

[Loony BoB]

The pre-DevLeague-averages for rookies is information restricted to management of the team each rookie is in - in other words the selection panel. At least, that's pretty much what I've been told. You'll familiarise yourself with the team as you play against them through the season - that's the realistic way, after all.

As for names...

OJ Cook - O.J Cook - batsman (LHB/OS)
AS Das - Dasa - batsman (RHB/OS)
JB Malthus-Howell - crickhowell - batsman (LHB/LM)
T Mamesh - new_age_ar - batsman (RHB/RF)
G Nayak - wrangler203 - batsman (RHB/LFM)
DP Towns - Loony BoB - batsman (RHB/OS) (vice captain)
SJ Burke - burkey_1988 - keeper (RHB)
S Jasotharan - Dizzy #4 - keeper (RHB)
JB Brown - King_Ponting - allrounder (RHB/RF)
DJ Comley - cometer - allrounder (LHB/SLC)
NR Hancock - chooka_nick - allrounder (RHB/RFM)
DP Tucker - Bluefox - allrounder (RHB/OS)
JP McNamara - vic_orthodox - bowler (RHB/LAS)
GM Thomas - NZTailender - bowler (RHB/RF)
KS Wright - Mister Wright - bowler (RHB/RFM) (captain)

I meant, a rough idea of how they will perform. But thanks, will make things easier. Well with Towns as the premier batsman, the star who managed 2 FC games last year and averaged 19 in OD... Nah just stirring. I think we'll see a few upsets... but it's so hard to tell because nobody knows anything about this team... apart from Kyle and yourself.

Well if a can have a good first season, what makes you think that these guys can't do the same and if not better.
