I ****ing hate you

 

[trundler]

First Flintoff, now Stokes

My batting factors lacked enough X.

Honestly, you can blame whoever took Warner, who was my first choice.

 

[ankitj]

I completely forgot Morkel existed. I would have taken him.

KingKallis up next

 

[stephen]

To be fair my initial thought was to grab Buttler if he got to me, which would have annoyed even more people considering I already had a keeper.

 

[trundler]

I was gonna jump to Buttler too

With their WC final heroics, those 2 are definitely the real deal to me.

 

[stephen]

The number of genuinely good middle order batsmen in ODI cricket is rather limited. Particularly number 6s.

 

[kingkallis]

Jonny Bairstow (2011-09-16)

 

[trundler]

Sorry, I'm changing it to Chris Woakes (2011-01-23)

 

[weldone]

Decent side, weldone. I may probably bat Oram above Kapil but otherwise pretty good.

Kapil has more muscle-power imo. But yes, Oram's batting is better than a no. 8 too. McC-Kapil-Oram's firepower is all I need in the end.

I'd probably bat Faf at 3 and shuffle Chappell and Taylor down one spot, but it's a pretty decent side.

I specifically selected Faf for no. 5. There were a couple other comparable guys (still un-selected) for number 3. But I wanted Ross to play at 4, not 5.

 

[kingkallis]

Sorry, I'm changing it to Chris Woakes (2011-01-23)

I did consider him but I needed a wicket keeper so will focus on another all-rounder.

 

[stephen]

Mrmr and red hill up next

 

[ankitj]

mr_mister next

 

[trundler]

I did consider him but I needed a wicket keeper so will focus on another all-rounder.

I needed somebody to bowl the majority of 10 overs and potentially do a batting rescue from #7. This leaves me in a bit of a pickle wrt my last pick though.

 

[stephen]

It's just hit midnight here so we might be waiting 8h.

A quality pace bowler gets your bowling over the line imo. Shakib is a good enough spinner, especially with Jaya and Symonds to back him up.
