How to use the cricket team picker
The wheel comes loaded with twelve international cricket nations. Spin once to draw a random team, or have each person in your group spin in turn to get the country they will support or play as. Edit the list any time — remove the minnows, add associate nations, or swap in club sides instead.
Perfect for ICC World Cup sweepstakes
Running an office or family sweepstake for the T20 World Cup, the ODI World Cup or the Champions Trophy? The cricket team picker draws teams fairly and in full view, so nobody can claim the office favourite was rigged. Spin in Elimination mode to hand every participant a different nation with no repeats.
