MW DeSilva [2/10] - needs to do a lot more to keep Ullungura and Wilshere out of the team.

Liam, could you post the current blue squad (initials and batting/bowling info included)?
McKern's retirement, Smith coming back, with the rookies and Currie being banned, not 100% of what's what atm.

Potential side for the opening OD match against Black:

PE Young
T Mamesh (wk)
J Ullungura
SE Fuller (c)
RGEWS Cribb
BL Wilshere
RA Williams
GS Gooljar
JP May-Quinlan
MJ Smith
RG Dunn

The loss of Currie puts a lot more strain on the OD batting (minus the ODI players) than I anticipated. Currie's batting will definitely be missed. But it's an opportunity for Williams to step up and continue to improve his batting.

Lots of bowling options in that team, but Smith, Dunn, Fuller, Williams and Gooljar will be the main 5. Young and Cribb will supplement them.
May-Quinlan will also bowl, surely? I'm certainly glad we picked up Ullungura, given where we'd be batting wise without him. It's not as bad as last year as things stand, just need the top 6 to stand up.

Big chance for our back up OD batsmen to step up next match, with the International away. Hopefully mine and Pete FC partnership, which seems to going pretty well so far, can click in the shorten form.

Given our latest rookie, I've got to play him tomorrow on account of our batting being so strained. This leaves me with the harsh decision of picking between Rhys Williams and Gareth Gooljar, as one of them has to sit out the OD season opener tomorrow.

Williams is a rookie waiting to break into the OD side. Gooljar has been around for ages and has never been given a proper run in any side. As such, I've decided to go with Gooljar for this game.

Don't be discouraged, Rhys. Your time will come very soon.

You can thank me (partially) for this. I told him to join cricketweb and then talked him into joining CWXI when he asked about it. :p
