International cricket captain sim league

[morgieb]

I just plain assumed he would've been picked when I started looking at batsmen.

Plus knowing ICC I'm showing a bit more bias towards FC averages. Was deadset eyeing off Lohmann for ages, for example.

I'm tipping that Lohmann will be a powerhouse in this sim.

Inter-war Australian pitches (with timeless matches to boot) is probably the most batting friendly cricket has ever got. Victoria got over 1000. Twice.
