12. Misbah-ul-Haq

Not sure if Misbah plays instead of Mahela at times. Depends on whether I want someone to get runs off the spinners in the middle overs or whether I want someone to hang in there and build an innings against the odds. I'm guessing the former is more useful given the rest of the players I have.

Wow I didn’t realise almost the entire XI bowl plus the 12th man

 

[trundler]

Must say I'm happy with my side. Top 3 that score very quickly, then Lamb at 4 as my anchor (great SR for the era too), followed by another ridiculously quick scorer and shrewd captain at 5. Symonds, Botham, and even Oram can hit it out of the park. Arguably 2nd greatest ODI spinner in my side too. Happy with the pace attack as well. Got Akhtar's terror and Morkel's death expertise. I'll get ten overs from Saqlain, Akhtar, and Morkel. Oram bowls the better part of 10 overs with Symonds, Botham and if need be, Lloyd putting in the rest.

12th man: Ian Bishop

I kept delaying my planned moves and someone else moved in. After Dhoni was picked early, I wanted to get Gilchrist in first round but postponed because he was offering me fewer overlap years, and McGrath (worthy pick even for low overlap) was taken already. I also wanted to pick Abbas plus Miandad, just didn't do it in time. Probably picking Boult relatively early to complete the bowling was not wise.

Still I have one of the best bowling attacks in the draft.

You also stole Boult and Williamson and I didn't call you a ****. Amla too. Great bowling attack though.

 

[trundler]

King_kallis and aknkitj will end up with the best bowling attacks.
