@Till Valhalla @Viper. to end round 5 and also make their leftover picks.

@Perfect Square also has an invalid pick, already mentioned by Aravind.

In the mean time, other managers can check there is any error in the draft list.

 

[Perfect Square]

My pick is Muditha Lakshan then

 

[BasketballHooper]

Sai Sudharsan in place of YBJ

 

[Paranoid Kendroid]

Sai Sudharsan in place of YBJ

Invalid. His last List-A was in 2023!

 

[BasketballHooper]

Give me YBJ then

 

[Paranoid Kendroid]

Sai Sudharsan in place of YBJ

In this modern world, I guarantee there is no dearth of quality ODI openers with ample experience.

 

[pillowprocter]

YBJ

All along Jaiswal was just YJB with the initials flipped?

 

[BasketballHooper]

Please replace YBJ with Saim Ayub please.

 

[Till Valhalla]

I am not gonna lie, I forgot I had a co and I don't know what's what.
Give me some time to fix up.

@Na Maloom Afraad @Perfect Square @BasketballHooper @mohsin7827 @DuneTiger @Till Valhalla @Viper. @Aravind.

Round 6 starts in 9 minutes.

 

[BasketballHooper]

Didn't you have to post 5 players ? @Till Valhalla

 

[Paranoid Kendroid]

Didn't you have to post 5 players ? @Till Valhalla

I guess this is the first time you are watching Till Valhalla in a draft.

It's not unexpected that Kandy would complete their picks at least 24 hours after everyone else

Krishan Sanjula, Lahiru Madushanka, Axar Patel, Rabada
