Quiz Draft

[Agent Nationaux]

I really like my pace attack. It has everything, pace, seam, swing, skill, etc.

 

[kyear2]

Yea, I like mine as well. Everything you said plus extreme agression and pace. Also well complemented by "Deadly" Underwood.

Hugh Tayfield

Screw you Sam, you just ruined my bowling attack, completely!

 

[kingkallis]

Marshall

[marc71178]

Terry Alderman

 

[Spikey]

was hoping he'd last into next round. bummer.

Anyway, there was a few batsmen I was thinking of taking and the fact that he dismissed Bradman two times - TWO - gets the great Indian Vijay Hazare the nod

Geoff Boycott
Gordon Greenidge
Ian Chappell (*)
Vijay Hazare
Adam Gilchrist (+)
Ian Botham
Harold Larwood
Bob Willis
Clarrie Grimmett

Grimmett, Larwood, Hazare - I've got Bradman covered baby!

Don't let Botham bowl against Bradman though. He'll just get hammered, stand there in the follow-through, smile, clap and befriend Bradman for the rest of his life (and probably suggest Bradman to share his apartment with him).

 

[Spikey]

I just realised I've picked Ian Chappell and Ian Botham in the same team.

 

[weldone]

I just realised I've picked Ian Chappell and Ian Botham in the same team.

Yeah

And Boycott too. Botham will probably be busy counting how many 'kicks in the backside' Boycott gets from his captain for slow batting. Also, Botham getting Boycott run-out will be a regular and strategic thing now.

 

[Dan]

I just realised I've picked Ian Chappell and Ian Botham in the same team.

Would make the boxing section of training entertaining, if nothing else.

 

[weldone]

Yeah and fans will cheer 'roobish, roobish' during that training session

 

[morgieb]

I just realised I've picked Ian Chappell and Ian Botham in the same team.

Lucky I picked Khan.

 

[Spikey]

I thought I was building a good team but it's become obvious everything is doomed.

 

[zaremba]

Lucky I picked Khan.

all right, all right, no need to gloat
