That makes 51 games? I hope anyway.





I've chosen the players I knew about and I've got as far as I can with including players. (evey player up to K has been checked, will do as many as I can by this afternoon) If you have a burning desire to see a player FROM THE LIST (http://www.world-a-team.com/fantasy-...?do=playerlist) included (as I've forgotten about him or overlooked him or not had time to include him. I think I've got most of the big names?) PM me please (dont post I want 'so and so' on here please). I'm NOT adding any other players to this list.


I've tried my best as to what players do. Some players aren't listed on 'cricinfo' (the site I used to find out if they are bowlers, batsmen or both or keepers) or have multiple choice players (several players of the same name) and hence aren't included.

Some may disagree as to the choices of all rounders (again pm me and I'll double check, if the batting and bowling averages are a guideline I'll change accordingly, but some players have played so few games that it's very difficult to know if they are bowlers, batsmen or both.)


Bear in mind that this is going to be a mammoth task and updates will be done every Two or three days. (I'll try every day but bear in mind I have a life too).


You may post your team here after the closing date which is the 13th of March 2007 .

I'll be putting the top FIVE only on here (plus a link to the score table.)

Good luck and have fun.

Please keep in mind that I am human and could make an error. if you see an error in the scoring ,PM me )
