Countdown to the best batting lineup

Discussion in 'CPL Cricket' started by Cribbage, Jan 30, 2011.

    I just wondered whether Vaas would count in the tail or not. I thought in terms of batting he would be one of the better 8's.
     
  2. Cribbage RG Cribb

    Yeah, that list I just posted up does not include Vaas and I'd definitely consider him a significant strength of your batting lineup*.

    *statement based on opinion of his batting improvements, and not simming average
     
  3. Callum CJ Laing

    Yeah but I went up 4 places when my tail is removed, suggesting I have a weak tail.
     
  4. Cribbage RG Cribb

    Some teams just have h4x tails tbh.
     
  5. Callum CJ Laing

    Are you able to do a ratings table purely on ratings of the tails?

    Would be interesting to see how test sides rate against our teams

    BB McCullum
    TG McIntosh
    MJ Guptill
    LRPL Taylor
    JD Ryder
    KS Williamson
    JEC Franklin
    DL Vettori
    KD Mills
    TG Southee
    CS Martin

    :ninja:
     
  7. Cribbage RG Cribb

    That team doesn't have keeper. :p Either slide McCullum down the order or pick Young/Dropkins.
     
  8. Jabba HJ Bots

    FML don't know their initials either :(

    BB McCullum
    TG McIntosh
    MJ Guptill
    LRPL Taylor
    JD Ryder
    KS Williamson
    JEC Franklin
    DL Vettori

  9. Julian BJ Taylor

    *Van Wyk.
     
  10. Cribbage RG Cribb

    I don't believe he's eligible yet. He's definitely considered South African for the purposes of CPL rep games (as are Trott and Pietersen though :p).
     
  11. Julian BJ Taylor

    He is elligible.
     
  12. Cribbage RG Cribb

    Haha you've stacked the batting to a ridiculous extent with that team which makes it a bit unfair as this is a batting-only analysis. :p

    I have an idea anyway that gives away less player-specific info tbh. Stay tuned (for like 3 minutes).

    So shocks dropping 1 spot is caused by Guptill playing for NZ ITSTL :ninja:

    No surprise there at all. How many of India's "best" 7 are current Test players?
     
  19. Cribbage RG Cribb

    Not telling. :)
     
  20. Callum CJ Laing

    I some how didn't think you would.
