Not quite - 10 players, one from Australia, England, India, Pakistan, New Zealand, South Africa, Sri Lanka, the West Indies, one from Bangladesh/Kenya/Holland etc. and your icon player. Then you'll have free reign to bid for whoever you like with the next 10 (max).

That's the money you have left for assembling your squad, so you'll need to make it account for 13 (minimum) more players.

If you have any left over, you can then use it for player trades if you wish, but there's no obligation to do so as you'll get money from attendances once the matches begin.

Still room mate. You've missed out on the opening Australian auction, but give me some bids for England and pick an icon player that hasn't been picked already, and you're in.

Can I have a nickname and a home ground please?

They finish when I've got the bids for all players. I did one this morning and as I said in my earlier post, I'm just waiting for one more set of bids so I can do the next one.

I have all the bids, but as mystery only bid for Flintoff, I'm going to wait and give him a chance to make some more bids, so anyone else who also bid for Flintoff is welcome to throw in an alternative.

Results from the England player auction are in and are as follows:

Surrey Sloggers picked up Andrew Strauss for £4 million
Canterbury Crushers picked up Ryan Sidebottom for £6 million
Melbourne Masters picked up Adil Rashid for £7m
Caribbean Blasters picked up Kevin Pietersen for £10.5m
Kolkata Demolishers picked up Luke Wright for £4m
West Yorkshire Wildcats picked up Tim Bresnan for £4m
Freuchie CC picked up Graeme Swann for £4.5m
Hyderabad Victors picked up Stuart Broad for £5m
Blackpool picked up James Anderson for £4m
Perth Giants did not pick up a player in this round but you are offered Jonathan Clare, the Derbyshire all-rounder for £3m. If you refuse you pick up no player from this round.

Bids from India welcomed from now on. I already have bids from bladescape, dips, tyke, sam and Spin wizard leaving the other five of you to pick your players. The aforementioned five can make changes to their bids should they wish, of course.

Money left in millions:

Surrey 85.2
Freuchie 84.5
Caribbean 79.1
Melbourne 86.5
Kolkata 85.9
Hyderabad 84
Perth 83.1
Canterbury 80.5
W Yorkshire 87
Blackpool 90.5

Can't help but feel I wasn't thinking clearly when I bid that much for Sidebottom. All well I wanted him, and I did get him, so I should be happy.

I bid 6 million for him, so I guess I beat you because I bid more, but only had to pay as much as you were willing to pay

I'll stay true to the real Surrey team and go for brown and blue, although it is a fairly rubbish color scheme
