Oh shower, KOB went. I thought he'd go unnoticed. Probably Ireland's best player. :(
I was never going to miss KOB. You were the one I was worried about that might take him earlier.
Yeah, I was only really worried about you taking him.

I still don't have players from Australia or India atm.
Yeah I could use an Indian player perhaps. All the decent ones gone now haha
RSA, Eng, Aus, NZ, SL, Pak, Ire.
WI, Pak, RSA Eng, NZ, SL.

I don't think it's any surprise we've gone for the same teams.

Probably was a tad risky to start with Gayle and Afridi as my picks, but if they're both switched on and play well, we all know how explosive they can be. That and I think the Windies, don't have too many great options.

Nah you did the right thing, you grabbed the best players from those countries. Partly why I went with KOB, I could've gone with a remaining Indian or West Indian, there's still some quality there, but the best player in a team is worth more.

That was pretty much the thinking. The talent in teams like Australia and India is a bit more widespread and minnow nations like Aghanistan and UAE, pretty much everybody is on a level playing field when picking them as they're fairly unknown.

Torp's got this!

Also, im disappointed at the lack of aggression shown towards great bowlers! Batsman only have a slight edge because of the size of the bats now and how far a pathetic mishower goes! But why underestimate the bowlers? They will still dominate and take wickets!

Taylor and Hafeez were on my list for my 2nd pick, but I'll go with Ahmed Shehzad as my next pick. Apparently very suited to Australian pitches. Also I'm backing a player I really want to last to my next pick.
