Nufan picked pacer, Cabinet picked Pathan so I can pick batsman, right?

 

[kingkallis]

I will give Eds a chance to pick first since he is online!

[uvelocity]

lots of pank lately cmon lets get this done

 

[ankitj]

Clive Lloyd (batsman)

Team so far:

Virendra Sehwag
Bruce Mitchell
Clive Lloyd
Greame Pollock
-
-
John Waite +
Curtly Ambrose
Craig Mcdermott
Hugh Tayfield
Fred Spofforth

 

[morgieb]

Colin Cowdrey (batsman)

 

[weldone]

Who are my taboos?

 

[Jager]

Batsmen and allrounders are off limits, I believe

 

[weldone]

Vernon Philander (pacer)

 

[weldone]

Weldone's Taboo XI:
-
Vijay Merchant
Rahul Dravid
Brian Lara
Neil Harvey
Kumar Ranjitsinhji
-
Alan Davidson
Vernon Philander
Courtney Walsh*
Bert Ironmonger

Any suggestions if anyone else is more capable of leading this side than Walsh? (definitely not Dravid or Lara, because I don't rate them as captains)

 

[Jager]

Surprised you don't rate Dravid as a captain, weldone. From what I've read, he was perhaps India's most tactically astute captain. Not sure on his leadership skills alone though.
