ODI Draft - Ascending Batting Average

[Prince EWS]

What happened to your idea that you should have a 5th bowler in the XI that you will back to bowl 10 overs even if who you pick as 5th may not be one of the top 5 bowlers at your disposal.

That's when you're picking from a full complement of a nation's players to play against an equivalent team. Much as Tendulkar bowling ten overs against Parramatta C Grade would be fine, his stock as a bowler is less bad in the context of this. Also, there legitimately are bowlers with better batting averages than him lol.

Also: fine and good are not the same.

 

[Teuton]

And if no one else joins him there he will have uninterrupted access to the best bats for a few rounds.
Big move by mr

 

[mr_mister]

Yeah well my bowling is severely lacking in stars so have to make up for it in batting

[StephenZA]

I should have gone with my original plan and I chickened out...

 

[Line and Length]

Plan? What's a plan?

 

[kingkallis]

[ankitj]

[anil1405]

I should have let mr_mr stick with Gilly.

 

[ankitj]

I should have let mr_mr stick with Gilly.

You can still rule it that trundler timed out.

 

[anil1405]

You can still rule it that trundler timed out.

Yeah, and then trundler will pick sachin to retaliate.

weldone > teuton > fuller > stephen

 

[weldone]

Jacob Oram (24.09)

will hit quite a few sixes against Tendulkar's bowling.

 

[mr_mister]

Likewise with Sachin against Oram's pies

 

[mr_mister]

i feel like such a chaotic evil right now

 

[kingkallis]

i feel like such a chaotic evil right now

And secretly you are enjoying it.

 

[weldone]

Likewise with Sachin against Oram's pies

Oram is a good bowler (173 wickets @ 29, ER 4.38), and Sachin can hit many sixes against any good bowler. But that's not the point.

 

[mr_mister]

my plan is to put on 400+ runs every match that it wont matter what bowlers I use

 

[mr_mister]

also the bloke could spin webs around batsmen

genuine wicket taker
