1. Sunil Gavaskar, S
2. WG Grace, G
3. Joe Root, Y
4. Patsy Hendren, M
5.
6. Andy Flower, E
7. Keith Miller, N
8.
9. Shane Warne, H
10. Brian Staham, L
11. Ian Bishop, D

I've left my list at home as well.

Charlie Blythe (Kent) and I'll worry about the batting later

 

[The Battlers Prince]

Would it help if I said I wasn't planning to pick Verity but had a last minute change of heart?

No it doesn't, but I shouldn't have let him slide the last few rounds...

 

[The Battlers Prince]

Vince Van Der Bijl - Middlesex

Zinzan x2 > TBP > Howe_zat

Shane Warne

Not sure whether to get a batsman, bowler or keeper last

 

[Zinzan]

Bangers & Mash with a Guinness in the backyard XI

Andrew Strauss (Midd)
John Wright (Derby)
Javed Miandad (Glam)
Sachin Tendulkar (York)
Clive Lloyd (Lanc)
Sir Garfield Sobers (Notts)
Ryan Ten Doeschate (Essex)
-
Dale Steyn (Wark)
Shane Bond (Hamp)
Jim Laker (Surrey)

John Wright has an awesome record for Derby, averaged 45 opening the innings in the late70s/80s

 

[Howe_zat]

Bailey's been picked I think

 

[Zinzan]

Bailey's been picked I think

**** he is too, my damn control search ...

Edited to Ryan Ten Doeschate. Didn't realize the guy averaged nearly 50 with the bat & over 200 wickets with the ball. Better FC record than Bailey.

[fredfertang]

Tempting as it is to pick Ajit Agarkar, I'm going to go with the man whose captaincy is worth innumerable runs and wickets,

Mike Brearley - Middlesex

 

[jimmy101]

Since randy has already taken his 'L', I'll pick Jimmy Anderson

 

[Zinzan]

Mike Brearley - Middlesex

Performed a lot better at FC level too.
