I would say 3 of the top 5. BTW, whose turn is it now?


AndrewB's side will take some beating when we do the voting. Trundler's is good but the #6 and #7 kinda bring it down a notch. Can't find any such issue with Andrew's.

Paynter is basically Adam Voges 1.0. A very good player no doubt but his average is quite flattering. Not by any means trying to discredit what is probably the best side here, but it's not perfect.

But Paynter let him get Sobers so it was absolutely worthwhile.

My #6 and #7 are a little less known but given Armstrong mostly played pre-War his record is excellent. Cameron was an excellent gloveman who could bat decently too. With batting down to #10 that's fine imo.

Very very glad with the side. 4 ATG bowlers, 2 of them spinners, 2 ATG all-rounders and 1 ATVG all-rounder, 1 ATG opener, 2 ATG middle order bats, 1 ATG batsman-keeper. Covers all bases and is good for all conditions and with the addition of Sir Worrell, excellent leadership and variety in the bowling lineup.
