No bad picks, just plenty of other options. Donald and Pollock are easily replaceable, as are a couple of others.Outside of openers, which is a complete toss up after the four and open to any myriad of players for the final two spots, I've gone with mostly consensus picks, not my opinions per say. Not sure if any of the players are that disputable tbh.Donald, Pollock maybe?
To say the very least, your last two posts have been quite though provoking.
Agreed.
You've got Warne twice, guessing one of them is meant to be Murali.
Edited.I originally meant to have Murali in the 2nd Xi cause he was imho the better bowler then changed it to Warne cause (Murali,Steyn,Barnes) is a really weak 9,10,11.
Assuming I'm not picking 19th Century players or anyone currently active, this is remarkably similar to my first three XIs, with just a couple of changes.
Yeah not too bad. A couple of tweaks and your first XI is probably there.
Disappointed at the lack of a surprise Nourse entry ngl
Couple of interesting ones in the third XI, quality stuff though.
I recently put Nourse at #19 in my list of top 20 bats. Could definitely find a spot in that third eleven on another day, but yeah no way he'd be missing the fourth eleven.
I like the Dravid at opener, curious on Compton and Waite? (dunno much about him)
No Viv or oversight?
He doesn't rate Viv
Doesn’t cop as much flack for it as some people…
