I remember someone posting his name must have edited or I was sleepy.

Mujeeb is picked. But Rudi didn't post about him.

Also you can only have 2 picks as yash posted another two.

Faulkner is taken btw.

All-Stars: @ddrap14 >> Still require one keeper and 1 x bowling option
Heat: @Till Valhalla & @Yash. >>All requirements met.
Spartans: @Mijurkat >>All requirements met.
Strikers: @Manish. & @Ashutosh. >> Still require one keeper and 1 x bowling option
Thunder: @PresidentEvil & @Albus P. W. B. Dumbledore >> Still require one keeper and 1 x bowling option
Titans: @NePtuNe Gaming >> All requirements met.

Considering the 3 x pitch types; NORMAL / GREEN & DUSTY: up to date squads.
- All-Stars will definitely struggle on a dusty pitch considering (current squad) only have a single spinner, but should be fine on normal and green tracks.
- Heat might have to allow a part-time spinner to bowl on a dusty pitch (Dilshan bowls often, but has a poor bowling avr.) Another decent all-rounder might round this squad off.
- Spartans similar to Heat might have to bowl a part-time spinner to bowl on a dusty pitch. Another all-rounder might round this team off.
- Strikers having three quality spin all-rounders helps alot, but if one of them gets injured they'll be in the same boat as above teams. Another spin option and another seam all-rounder would be handy.
- Thunder would rely heavily on Rashid's and Mujeeb's form on a dusty track, nevermind if one might get injured. This team needs a spin all-rounder for certain.
- Titans, looks the better balanced franchise at the moment. Regardless the conditions, they seem to be covered.

Mujeeb?

Apology to both teams. That's what happens when you have multiple tabs open between work and here. Brain fart on my side

We also have a third option in Dilshan.

@RUDI will you be factoring the matches a player has played? Players with 15-20 ODIs might have great stats but will you rate players with 100-150 ODIs who have slightly lower stats as better than them

Only International players with 30+ caps in between the period 2010 to 2020 will be allegeable for Cricket Blast. Associate players will be rated slightly lower than what their averages indicate. Players that had a great start to their careers during the period actual averages will be taken in consideration. This is why I tried to assist you all with the lists of player records during this period.

Ah rip so rassie van der Dussen with his 70 average isn't available. Thought I might get him at the last round lol

Even ordered drafts are taking ages due to time difference between managers
