So, my sign-up is as follows:

Franchise: Mudlarks
Home ground: Inverness
Priority: First-class cricket

Player 1

Kelby Rogerson (20 points spent)
Right-handed batsman / Opener / Skill: 6
Right-arm bowler / Leg-breaks / Skill: 6

Player 2

Fusco Wirihana (14 points spent)

I'm going to use this post as a repository for stadium images for the time being, by the way. I guess that also serves the purpose of showing off what your grounds could end up looking like:

[VC the slogger]

Franchise: Mavericks
Home Ground: New York
Priority: First-class & my own players


Player 1

King Eastwood

RHB
Middle order (2)
Batting (9)
Right-arm fast (5)
Bowling (9)
Overall (25)

"A time traveller. The greatest bat or bowl in the Old West, and a man who legend has it is said to have hit the great Bart King for five consecutive sixes in an over before deliberately letting the last one go through to the keeper simply because the opposition skipper offered to buy him a bottle of scotch at the end of the day's play. In addition, he was said to be the quickest bowler in America at the time and was notorious for bowling out entire teams all by himself without so much as needing a fielder's assistance. His refusal to reveal his true identity (even King Eastwood is a made up name) however cost him the chance to play cricket at first-class level and all his great feats have since been lost in the old scorecards for good. Not that he cared in the least."


Player 2

Svenke Ulberg

RHB
Lower order (1)
Batting (6)
Right-arm fast (5)
Bowling (8)
Overall (20)

"The former skipper of the Norway national cricket team, Svenke Ulberg is arguably the greatest player to ever emerge from the country. He came into focus during PCPL V where he debuted as a spin bowling all-rounder for the Nine Dragons and later captained his country on debut in Cricket Dynasty, putting in some impressive performances with both bat and ball. He has since evolved into a genuine quick capable of clocking 150 kph on a regular basis and a powerful striker of the ball in the lower order though his batting remains mostly hit or miss. It's a shame he no longer plays for his country, citing internal politics and their constant selection of Pakistan Z players well past their prime at the expense of local talent as one of his reasons. Norway's loss is franchise cricket's gain."


Player 3

VC Andrews

RHB
Tail (0)
Batting (4)
Right-arm fast-medium (3)
Bowling (8)
Overall (15)

"VC Andrews was once touted as the ideal successor to Glenn McGrath in the Australian team for his ability to hit the top of off almost at will, and unlike the latter also possessed some decent slogging ability with the bat. For a while he lived up to the billing with some impressive performances at Test and ODI level in the PC Border-Gavaskar trophy, PCCC and PCFTP. But then came a rather dramatic upheaval of his life, forcing him to retire from international cricket after 2014/15 in order to focus most of his energy into his family business. He has since made only sporadic appearances in various franchise leagues and even a one-off international comeback to help out a rather depleted Australian lineup, but remains mostly semi-retired from cricket. Not that it has affected his bowling much; the pundits still consider him to be world class."

LOL!

[Aislabie]

Franchise: Blues

I think @Life Warrior has asked that the Blues be held for him; for the time being I've put you down for the Courtiers instead as they have a reasonable amount of blue on their RGB colour code, but if you want a different team then I will happily change that.

Also, all team details have been added to the index

 

[Pinch hitter]

all team details have been added to the index

I added List-A as my team priority, but you added first-class in team index...

 

[Aislabie]

I added List-A as my team priority, but you added first-class in team index...

As with most things, I do intend to double-check all of this

I'd prefer the Blues, if @Life Warrior agrees
