[SachDan]

someone join Zubin's team and select a player for him

[nospam]

b No player can belong to 2 teams, and each team must have a player from each of the 9 test playing nations (9th being Zim and not Bang). No team can have 3 players from the same country.

what if we choose 2 players from aus, ind, safrica, sri lanka, nz and 1 from pakistan-> that makes it 11 players total which is max; but the earlier rule says we need have players from all test playing nations except bangladesh(incl zimbabwe) isnt it against the rules then??

[SachDan]

^^nospam, as per the rule you are allowed to select two players only from two test playing nations.

[nospam]

^^nospam' date=' as per the rule you are allowed to select two players only from [b']two test playing nations.

i cannot find (bold) part or are ur implying this rule,

b No player can belong to 2 teams, and each team must have a player from each of the 9 test playing nations (9th being Zim and not Bang). No team can have 3 players from the same country.

i thot this meant no players can belong to 2 teams, teams here imply to our ICF 8 teams, isnt it?? or am i missing that rule? i'm confused.

Since nobody has selected Anwar till now, can I change Brett Lee to Laxman for team3? Also, on my turn I'd select AB De Villiers.

Yeah...i.e. no player can be selected twice.

1. 9+1+1. That means you have the option of selecting one more player from either of the teams. In your X1 you can't have three players from a single country. 2. You are spot on! If a player is once chosen by any other team, then you have to forget about having him in your team.

[SachDan]

No !! :protest::protest:

[bunny]

One thing I realized playing this draft is that lots of countries seriously dont have too many world class players since the 90s.

[bunny]

No !! :protest::protest:

I know...but somebody else selected for my team..or at least change it to Gillespie...who in their right mind would select Lee over Gillespie :( ??

[Gambit]

bunny, allowing replacement of players already chosen will be unfair to others.

[bunny]

bunny' date=' allowing replacement of players already chosen will be unfair to others.[/quote'] Yeah that's true...leave it as Brett Lee. Hopefully I can catch up in the next 5 rounds.

[nospam]

ok after selection of drafts, could u-bunny update your first post and everyone should delete their posts or request a mod to do so? (so as to cleanup the thread make it more organized or just start a new thread)

[bunny]

Someone pls join team 2.

[zubinpepsi]

bunny, wicket keeper, which stats will be take for him, his batting average r keeping dismissals??

[SachDan]

^^ Oh! don't be too choosy :giggle: go for a decent w/k batsman!

[Dirty_South]

Zubin,pick Ian Healy
