ODI All Time ODI cricket draft

[eth-dog]

We've done a few test cricket drafts over the years but I can't remember the last time we did an ODI draft, or if we've ever done one. Of course the eras have changed quite a bit over the years but I'd be curious to see what people come up with. Hoping for 10-15 teams to come and sign up.

Rules:

1. Must have a player from each decade of ODI cricket (70's, 80's, 90's, 00's, 10's, 20's). For multi decade players, nominate which decade you're picking for.
2. Cannot pick more than 2 players from each country. For those that played at multiple countries in ODI's (eg Wessels) you must nominate which country you're picking him for at the time of drafting.
3. 8 hour time limit between 8 am and 10 pm (so if player x picks at 8:30 pm, you have until 2:30 the next day to pick).
4. Must have played a minimum of 20 ODI's.

Happy to add any other rules that people can think of but those are the basics for now.

Draft order:

I'm obviously way too late to get involved in this, but I enjoyed reading through the picks, so I'm posting just to keep watching the thread.

I reckon The_Reaper has the best list so far, but these drafts can get WILD in the second half.

Also, boncer34 has Shane Bond twice in his team eth-dog.

There definitely start to be some sub optimal fourth-fifth choice picks later in the game.

Your bowling lineup great so far

 

[Around the Wicket]

Jaiswal.. 1 game average 15... I bet he is a all time great ODI player in 10 years.

 

[The_Reaper]

eth-dog Michael Holding is my 70s player.

 

[corbies]

I've ummm'd and ahhhhhhhhh'd over this pick trying to decide between 2 players. In the end I've gone for one of the best defensive ODI bowlers ever who was also more than handy with the bat.

To further my earlier sentiments, and to quote Jackie Moon at the Tropics team meeting where they announced he’d been replaced as coach, no homophobia intended, just his blind rage:

‘You motherf**ken c**ksucker’

Joel could hit

as close as you'll get to a flag of the West Indies.

Or could go for Haynes and for Ambrose.

 

[The_Reaper]

I really, really wanted Imran but there ain't a lot of keepers left that remotely look up to the standard.
