That team looks remarkably familiar :D :D
How do I explain it?
That's a tricky one... It is the best utilisation of players from players around the world ;-)

SO WHAT IS EXACTLY WRONG WITH HAVING 9 PLAYERS FROM ENG AND AUS??? :L? :L?

In the full team there is a WI and and SA player so that makes up 4 UNIQUE countries, I don't see any problems ??? :L?

Unique Countries = 4
Category a = 2
Category b = 3
Category c = 3
Category d = 2
Category e= 1
Captain is member of Playing Eleven.

Am I missing something Big Daddy?

[Big Daddy]

yeah , how do u have 9 players from aussy english line up when we are only allowed 5 transfers each..... since u made the top 5 in the westindies pak and southafrican series in month 1. so chances are ur team was loaded by players from these teams...... 7 PLAYERS FROM AUSTRALIA ENGLAND BANGLADESH I CAN UNDERSTAND IN MONTH 2 , BUT 9 IS A BIT REDICULOUS , DONT U AGREE?

[Officer Barbrady]

From what I remember Waheed had 3-4 English/Aus players in his team for the first month. So +5 means 9 for this month. He is near the top because he had Gayle as captain! Same for Zorawar.

I would have been there too if I had Gayle instead of Sarwan as captain. The rest of the team was similar.

[sy]

this was Waheed's evil plan!

I think what he did was plan ahead for the second month before the first month. While everyone else had naively filled their teams with west indians, south africans and pakistanis, Waheed on the sly worked out it would be benificial to stock up on aussies and english players.
You see south africa played only 5 games and Pakistan only 3 in the first month. In this month england and australia are playing 7/8 games. So in the long term it would have made sense to pick a few aussies/english rather then south african/pakistanis before the first month because more games = more points :)

Big Daddy, I Don't like what you are trying to insuate in your recent posts... :(-

I have tried and setup the FC League to be Fair and Transparent as possible. If you recall 3 months a go no TEAMS were visible at all...
I have gone through the trouble of setting up a system so that ALL Teams are visible to EVERYONE, and MatchPoints for each indivdual player are shown, so that you can add your own team players points aswell...

Why would why I go through all that trouble if I wanted to take advantage and change my side on the sly??? :)?

It is only a game at the end of the day, and it is only through planning my transfers 1/2 months ahead that I have been able to get a line up with 9 players from Australia and England... so there is nothing REDICULOUS about it...

Syed Shah and Marooned were able to work this out but you on the other hand could not believe that was possible...

Before the ODI Competition started I decided to have only ONE bowler from WI v SA v PAK as I believed it would be a high scoring series, and only picked Bradshaw as my bowler.
So for the first month I had
Bowler 1: b hogg australia c
Bowler 2: s jones england c
Bowler 3: d gough england d

aswell as

Batsmen 5: m hussey australia e

So that makes 4 AUS & ENG players for the month....

Then I MADE 5 TRANSFERS ( 4 AUS & 1 ENG)....

4 (AUS & ENG) + 5 (AUS & ENG) = 9 (AUS & ENG)

VERY SIMPLE REALLY, DON'T YOU THINK ???

I shouldn't have to prove myself to you, but here is the evidence aswell for my transfers... as I send a e-mail copy of my transfers to WIY aswell before the deadline...

So I resent the Insuiniations and Inuendo aimed at me...

Waheed.

[Big Daddy]

[Fessal]

Waheed bhai

[sy]

Yes your efforts are truly appreciated. Thank you Waheed.

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

BB- waheed is a very good tactician and he did plan ahead - i remember when he had hogg in earlier i was shocked but now it makes sense!
