It's the Greatest betrayal in Anime history.Would do a crazy Goddard gimmick but it doesn't really balance in any way shape or form.
Barlow
Kirsten

I seriously consideredIt's the Greatest betrayal in Anime history.
Honestly, not a bad lineup with high bowling depth and Procter coming at 8.I seriously considered
Goddard / Kirsten / n/a / Taylor and Barlow
Def would've if not for Maharaj getting in (worse bowler than Goddard who fulfills a similar holding role). But I rate Barlow so.
I can understand batting depth but in tests, you don't need bowling depth. A good captain can make do with 4 good bowlers with no one else needed.Honestly, not a bad lineup with high bowling depth and Procter coming at 8.
Probably just different people voting tbh.Somehow opinion has fallen of Procter since his death.
I understand that. I compromised by picking Barlow as the opener instead of Kirsten and making him 4th seamer.For mine, he's picked as the allrounder. It's not ideal to bat him out of position but the quality of openers compared to the quality of middle order bats available pushed me to do so.
and you needed to put in Bland as a second order effect.I understand that. I compromised by picking Barlow as the opener instead of Kirsten and making him 4th seamer.
Yeah, I get that. But 5 bowling options is really good to have and a 6 th in Barlow isn't really hurting.I can understand batting depth but in tests, you don't need bowling depth. A good captain can make do with 4 good bowlers with no one else needed.
