4.Travis Birt
5.Callum Ferguson
6.James Hopes
7.Chris Hartley+

[Matt79]

Current players only:
Hayden
Langer
Ponting
Lara
Pieterson
Flintoff
Gilchrist - if he ever finds form with the bat against a better team than Bangers
Warne
Lee
Nel - makes me smile
McGrath
12th man: Symonds (just to watch the bloke field - insane!)

Of all the players I've seen:
Slater
Hayden
Ponting
Viv Richards
Mark Waugh
Steve Waugh
Imran Khan

S.Jayasuria
S.Fleming*
K.Pietersen
M.Ashraful
A.Flintoff
K.Sangakarra+
S.Afridi
J.Kemp
J.Taylor
S.Bond

The ODI side is probably a bit bowling weak, but i reckon it would work.

You have McGrath has 12th man. WTF?

His 12th favourite player? Or do you intend picking them for him?

You have McGrath has 12th man. WTF?

You have McGrath has 12th man. WTF?
