11. C.Walsh (3)

12th. H.Gibbs

A serviceable upper order followed by 2 ATG all rounders and depth of batting down the list.
A proven pace trio supported by the spin of Trumble and Sobers.

@anil1405 Many thanks for a well run draft. Most enjoyable - particularly after I refined my tactics after Round 1.

I think Kallis should bat 4 and Jaya at 5 to give a bit more solidity to the top order.

Fair comment, but the top order is solid in its own right - as their Test averages show.
Cook 45,4
Sharma 46.1
Edrich 40.0
Jaya 49.8
