I would have picked him too. In fact before I checked the rules my plan was to try and pick 10 cricketers with no tests, plus Tendulkar

Wouldn't want to be a batsman on a lively pitch....

The fearsome Sylvester Clarke was another. When Steve Waugh was at Somerset as a young man, he recalled the atmosphere in the dressing room changing a full week before their appointment with Mr Clarke. Waugh then faced what he called "the most awkward and nastiest" spell of his career. "It was something you can't prepare for."

It was time for a duel between great all-rounders. However, Botham had not yet graduated to that category. And Procter would never be able to ply his trade in international cricket after the four Tests he had played in 1969-70.

On this day, Procter ran in fast and bowled, as was characteristic, off the wrong foot. The ball spit up and struck the young man on his face. Botham checked for blood and bruises and took guard again. This time he was dished up an off-break. He drove outside the line and was bowled. 101 for 7. The match had been turned on its head.
