Have PM'ed Skizzo, with suggestions if he doesn't come online by 5pm BST, I will send you the picks.
@crappycraperson vs @Skizzo/@harshad
Pitch Conditions: Pitch 3 - Good batting track with some assistance for seam/pace bowlers
Send in your Write-ups at the earliest.
Also, it might be a good idea if semi finalists don't vote for each other's matches. Since this is an informal rule regularly followed in the football drafts, I think we should do it too for the Cricket one's, from here onwards.
@crappycraperson

Reinforcement-Final Auction Rules -
1. Any money saved from previous auctions will carry forward for this round
2. Another 50m will be given for this round.
3. Minimum price of a player in first reinforcement round will be 30m.
4. If you bid your maximum purse on a player and another player has the same amount of funds left at that point(not more, the same), then he can match that bid as well. If both bids go through then the player will be allotted via a super over. (This is done so that a manager is not at a disadvantage due to time different, resulting in missing out on bidding first on a player).
5. At no point can the total price bidded for players+existing value of squad should exceed 400m. If that occurs, it will lead to voiding of several bids and a penalty of 10m.
6. A player will be deemed sold if no rival bid is placed on him for 12 hours.
7. Minimum increment of a bid has to be 2m within the first 4 hours of the last bid, 5m for the next 6 hours and 10m in the last 2 hours.
8. All timestamps on auction board must be of GMT time.
9. You can not have a squad of more than 15 players. If you buy a 16th player then you must discard an existing one.
10. You can only nominate a player on the board by bidding on him.
11. Auction nominations will close after one day of the time the bids go live.

@Varun - are u ok with bid going live right now?
Reinforcement Auction Board - Bids are live
Malinga - 30m - Crappy - 13.07
Malinga - 30m - Crappy - 13.07
Why are Kohli and Gayle still in the available pool? Have they been cloned?
Hah. i havent updated it
@crappycraperson dont we usually do the final reinforcement round as a snake style?
You get to pick first, as you have the more
Money, and then @Varun would pick.
Otherwise you've raised the starting bid to 30m meaning you get the unfair advantage of picking 2 players to his 1.
Just wondering. Your draft and all

Tbh, I don't really think its unfair because it was in the rules from the start. Had we saved 1m more we could have had two players too. Don't know how its usually done though.
