Scorecard Draft

[Somerset]

Contemplated selecting another great Pakistani allrounder of that era but the inner New Zealander in me means I'll have to go with Sir Richard Hadlee:
3rd Test: England v New Zealand at The Oval, Aug 21-26, 1986 | Cricket Scorecard | Cricinfo.com

Somerset XI:
Sachin Tendulkar
Sir Richard Hadlee

 

[Noble One]

Pick again. HB has Hadlee.

 

[kingkallis]

Jeez, you didnt even check the list posted just above your post?

 

[Somerset]

D'oh - would've paid to have looked at that list more carefully.

Dennis Lillee:
5th Test: England v Australia at Manchester, Aug 13-17, 1981 | Cricket Scorecard | Cricinfo.com

Somerset XI:
Sachin Tendulkar
Dennis Lillee

In my defence it actually took me a few minutes to find a scorecard with Botham and Hadlee so it appeared that the most recent post before mine was Marc's.

 

[Pothas]

Shame to have missed this draft, looks a good one.

Is a good game guessing who is going to be picked next though.

 

[kingkallis]

Lillee...now thats a superb pick mate!

In an attempt to take things back in time (but probably failing)

Sir Ian Terence Botham

I love the similarities between the two sets.

AWTHimmanv too, Somerset #1 as of now, imo.

Got the two most important picks -that of a WK and allrounder- out of the way. Can now concentrate on just getting the batsmen and the bowlers.

Brian Lara
Keith Miller
