You defeated me in round one with that team in that draftI know, it's the best strategy. I did the same with Cristiano and Platini in one of them.
T20 Auction draft - Rd 1 - MJJ vs Anant
- Thread starter Skizzo
- Start date
Oh!You defeated me in round one with that team in that draft
I hope whoever is deciding this game reads this and kills off the myth.
No, not MJJ's in this draft. He usually executes it well but fecked it up a little here.
Yeah can't see myself winning this. The balance isn't right and with only 8 teams there will be some super sides
What's happening with this? When will the suspense end?
Need to move this along @crappycraperson and your match as well.
@anant @MJJ Please send in your choice for the shots and bowls in the super over as following
Batting -
B1 - Drive/Pull/Slog
B2 - Drive/Pull/Slog
B3- Drive/Pull/Slog
B4- Drive/Pull/Slog
B5- Drive/Pull/Slog
B6 - Drive/Pull/Slog
Bowling -
B1 - Yorker/Short/Slow ball
B2 - Yorker/Short/Slow ball
B3- Yorker/Short/Slow ball
B4- Yorker/Short/Slow ball
B5- Yorker/Short/Slow ball
B6 - Yorker/Short/Slow ball
Here is how the scoring will work -
Yorker Balls -
Pull - Wicket
Drive - 4
Slog - 6
Short balls -
Pull - 6
Drive - Wicket
Slog - 4
Slow balls -
Pull - 4
Drive - 6
Slog - Wicket
------------
-You can select as many of the same type of shots/balls
- If at any point you lose 2 wickets your innings will end and the score at that point will be the final one
- At the end of 2 innings, either after 6 balls or 2 wickets, scores will be compared
- If the scores are equal, then the one with less wickets lost will be the winner
- If the wickets lost are also the same, then we move onto sudden death, where you will submit one such over again but whoever takes the lead at any point of that over, will be the winner.

Nice idea!
Why's there no option to bowl shit full tosses?
So it should be yorker/short/slow/pandya

I might be away so send your choices to someone else as well.
I'll be around if you want to send your choices to me.
Then there should also be a Bangladesh option in the shots.
We need a commentator for this. Who wants to utilise their inner Ravi Shastri?
The brainless slog is there.
No I demand Siddhu or Danny Morrison for this
At this stage we'll have semi finals before this match completes.
Wasn't this match up 2 days before any other match too?
I sent my picks ages ago, waiting for @anant i suppose.
I hope you've just slogged everything
Sent my picks to @Akshay
You guys can send to me as well if you want in case Akshay is gone for the night.

Well played @MJJ . Kohli and gayle provided one hell of a competition and the result of the super over could have so easily been different
Who batted for anant?
Amazing bowling. Did 12th man broad bowl this?
Doesn't matter. Was basically rock paper scissors.
Still I want to know.
Probably that McDonalds fella To Rohit and Luke Wright.
I could have, but I'd have struggled to come up with good commentary for five consecutive yorkers driven for a boundary.And @Akshay, you could have taken Samid's suggestion and commentated on it, ball by ball.
You could have built up the suspense, with comments like "Captain Kohli in deep discussions with his bowler, thinking about field placements. Oh wait, No, there's a streaker on the ground. Wait, it's MJJ. The team owner has gone mad, he's running around towards his captain as security chase after him". You know, the classic stuff
