    I picked Smith. He's the best batsman in the world. Two other options I guess and too early to pick Peter Borren.

    Easy pick in the end really. Bit hard not to go him.

    Brave call for Heef to pick the 10th Worst Test Cricketer of All-Time.

    Cabinet96, Cribbage and HeathDavisSpeed like this.

  5. HeathDavisSpeed HT Davis

    I picked him just to annoy Hurricane, really.

    Stokes 2nd? Really?

    I get the logic in such a big comp. There will be 40+ players picked before Gemmell gets another pick. People will pick specialist batsmen worse than him and maybe even specialist bowlers worse than him before Gemmell picks again. If you're only going to have one of the best 46 players in the world I can see why you'd want him to be an allrounder.

  8. morgieb MC Burridge

    Yeah I guess, problem is there's still quite a few all-rounders I rate ahead of him.

  9. Cribbage RG Cribb

    If you reckon Stokes is one of the best 48 quicks in the world, which is probably a fair punt, he should be opening the bowling in this comp. When you can pick a world class batsman to open the bowling for you it's a fair deal.

    I probably would've picked a bowler tbh but it's not dumb. Probably the smartest thing Gemmell will do all draft. I'm looking forward to Ashley Noffke coming out of retirement.

    I'm also looking forward to Kohli getting injured for the semi-final and Captain's second best batsman getting a pair.

    I hope you've got all Associate teams in the database. I'll be sure to be picking a few, and not just Namibians.

    Yeah the ICup is still in there, and "ODIs counting for some players" mentioned in the rule changes helps a few of those guys as well.

    I'll be going after so many picks purely to spite you knowing you'll h4x them.

    On this, the later rounds will be ITSTL. I get the vibe compared to even six years ago there's far fewer FC freaks around. I guess the ODI rule changes might help though.

  15. Boobidy BJ Gemmell

    No need. Gonna have Noffke and Cutting open the bowling. Easy wins.

    I'll be bringing Damien Wright back.

    And what fucking all-rounder is better than Stokes? None that are even close, IMO.

    Good thing is that the cricket archive website with all the FC stats is behind a paywall, so there'll be less of stats whoring imo

  19. Cribbage RG Cribb

    There are going to be 432 players picked, people will find ways to stats whore at the end.

    That or they'll pick Damien Wright and Ashley Noffke, I guess.

    Stats whoring at the back end is perfectly fine because nobody knows who the 10th highest run scorer in the Plunket Shield for the last 3 years or whatever is. Doing it up front is a bit lame.
