Calendar Draft

Fuller Pilch

Hall of Fame Member
Will finish with Tom Blundell (Sept)

Final team

Jack Hobbs
Arthur Morris
David Gower
Mahela Jayawardene
A.B. De Villiers
Tom Blundell (wk)
Ian Botham
Shaun Pollock
Richie Benaud (c)
Heath Streak
Brian Statham


Very happy with this side - the opening GOAT is the start of an immensely powerful and deep batting lineup (Streak at 10!) while Benaud captains this highly experienced side which is full of test captains. Ideally I would have liked a left-armer or express quick for variety but this 5-man attack looks relentless.

Whatever it takes!!!
Your team is completed....

And yeah you have a catch-up pick left....

Honest Hunks

Trevor Goddard
Wilfred Rhodes
Denis Compton
Bob Simpson (vc)
Bill Edrich
Aubrey Faulkner
MS Dhoni (wk) (c)
Ravi Ashwin
Stuart Broad
Mitch Johnson
Josh Hazlewood


A bit of a dream team with just about every variety of bowling in cricket covered (Right Arm and Left Arm Fast and Fast Medium and Medium Fast + Right and Left Arm Off and Leg Spin) and just about everyone who can bat except Haze. There will honestly not be a wicket where this team will feel they are not covered. As far as the greats go, for me, Rhodes, Compton, Ashwin and Broad are all greats of the test game. So not badly served there either. Gotta love one of the most hb teams I have drafted in recent memory. :)

You should have finished the XI with a lob bowler :)
