I tried to but it came off in a really ugly format when I C+P'd it from Notepad. I can do another way but it'll have to wait until tomorrow.

chewie, captain and spark for mine, even with his massive green punt. i put morgie and boobidy midfield. solid efforts from hunter and baxter too.
@Number 11's team has really snuck up on me as being a contender. I still like Morgie, Baxter, Heath and Hunter's teams a lot too. Heath's fortunes may hinge on him correctly identifying which associates the database actually thinks are good (spoiler: not a bad start with Frylink). StephenZA's band of South Africans and Rohit Sharma could be interesting, and Howedan is solid other than a kind of meh Round 1 pick (which is probably better than it looks to me on paper anyway due to left handedness and strike rate).
Chewie always sneaks under the radar by just never making crap picks too. Similar here so far other than the fact that he has a #9, two #10s and a #11 in his tail.
This was not planned... number of players I ear marked got picked up just before I had a shot. So went for what I knew...
Haha they are good picks tbf. I'm not sure anyone actually started the first two rounds with a better pair of specialists than you (especially excluding Baxter as two bowlers in a row is a bit different to what I mean here), and the rest are all solid even if mostly South African players.
this was the correct decision. very easy to dig a hole trying to sift through competitions you haven't seen with your own eyes. obviously the top few players in every comp will be perfectly fine, but the early drafts in this had some atg fuck ups.
Was not expecting this as have been fairly lukewarm on my draft but guess I've nailed it with recent picks. Batting looks strong but not sold on bowling attack outside of Haze. Think Morgie was running away with the best draft title until the last couple of rounds.
Yeah even though Hughes was actually a very good pick I was expecting you to pick a bowler at that point. Team looking something like this: 1 Hughes 2 D Smith 3 Azhar 4 Rahane 5 K Perera 6 Dickwella 7 Mahmudullah 8 Pretorius 9 Harmer 10 Hazlewood 11 Boland Batting definitely stronger than bowling but it's a very good side.
Gun. Just need Pretorius getting a few more wickets vs England and we’re in business. As for worst sides, Dhokchau stands out with weird picks in recent rounds. Mostly everyone looks fairly solid tho, not a bad effort 11 rounds in.

think Baxter Cab and Athers have the best attacks, Captain's batting gonna be a pain to get out. Morgie in danger of doing a Morgie. Heef has a pretty decent attack for drafting the best batsman #1
