It is very difficult to predict injury.

***** did his draft idea with 14 names as it was picking for a series. I just try and pick as balanced XI as possible assuming all are available for selection.

 

[NUFAN]

Mister, I am so glad you didnt pick Blewett as opener. I knew at the time his average fell away, but he really was a poor opener.

I used to love Blewett at 6 - think 1995 Caribbean.
