Are players listed by Elo on normal?

In Ranked game, it is my understanding that players are listed by Elo, with the highest Elo being the team captain and the lowest Elo being the last pick.

Is the same logic applied to normal games? If I'm listed as fifth on my team, does that mean I have the lowest normal Elo score on my team or is there no particular order in normal games?

I don't think there any ranking in normal mode. You have your level plus number of win/loss. If order there is, it's definitely not a ELO score. (For normal game I mean)

Edit

I found this that may invalidate what I said:

The results of normal games count towards the Summoner's Win / Lose / Leaves score. Additionally, your ELO is changed according to the result, you earn points if you win and lose some if you lose. The number of ELO-points you gain or lose is calculated by an unknown formula, taking the expected result due to the ELO-values of all participants into consideration.

There is no ranking on normal, but they DO use ELO for normal games!!! It's only hidden and not visible to players. It used to be findable on lolbase.net, but that hasn't been working for a while now (since Augustus 2010).

If you are doing a normal premade draft mode game, then the team captain is actually based on alphabetical order of summoner name. However, if you are doing a blind pick game in normal, order means absolutely nothing.

As other have mentioned, there is an ELO for normal games as well. It is the same ELO number for both draft mode and blind pick. It is the same for all game modes, except maybe dominion which has a different ELO rating. No you cannot see your normal ELO number yourself, you can at best guesstimate it based on your W/L ratio/difference. There is an actual max ELO rating you can get in Normal, so there is an upper bound limit for it.
