Thought might as well start a thread for this. We can include discussions for all future drafts here whenever they may occur.
A few posters liked the idea of no team mates. Another factor I should add now is that it avoids the generation argument as you have no choice but to research and have a mix of players from different eras.Aye was good fun. Loved the test draft as it's cricket in its purest sense plus discussions went beyond stat abuse!!
Perhaps we could play around with test drafts. 130 years of history means there's variety to be had.
Example: max 2 players from the same test playing nation. min 20 tests each player
or no team mates draft (clue is in the name, 11 players who never played together in test cricket). That keeps the Aussie invincibles, Windies and Aus 90-00s seperated.
Yeah, I really like the no team mates draft too. It would make each team very varied and coming up with very interesting combinations.My suggestion from last time:

For instance you can't stack your attack with bowlers from the 70s/80s (considered the golden era of pace bowling) and have a default advantage if your opponent features batsmen from the modern era (flat pitches, considered a weak era for bowling).
Country cricket is right up my street!Yeah, I really like the no team mates draft too. It would make each team very varied and coming up with very interesting combinations.
At some point, I would like it if we ran a County Draft as well. That's one avenue which I am not very familiar with and would love to learn more about.
Not unless I'm assisting someone, can't be arsed going solo.
Not sure I have enough time on hands tbf
WelcomeI want it on a cricket draft.
Yeah, last one was auction draft.Was there ever a auction cricket draft?
I'll help you out.Anyone interested in co-hosting next draft? new ideas are welcome.
Thanks Varun.I'll help you out.
Any would do.What is the interest levels for this? Do you guys want a boring snake draft or something more interesting like a sheep draft?
Yo ssup?I'll probably be involved in some capacity
Play KM.I can host it with some help. Need some idea for thinking the criterias for sheep though.
Not playing mate.We are thinking of mixing it up. First 6 rounds in sheep format followed by 5 rounds in snake format and the 12th round with all blocked players opened up in snake format again.
