    The ATG Teams General arguing/discussing thread

    Yes, forgot about Woolmer. You can have Ames + Knott(+) instead of Chapman + Ames(+) if you like. They also had Colin Blythe. By their all-time third XI they'd have a world-class spinner and keeper surrounded by (relative) mediocrities. Middlesex also have a decent XI: Andrew Strauss Jack...

    Biggest difference in an individual's performance in 2 consecutive series

    Only the first two series (1893, 1894-5) were consecutive, though (the others being 1899 and 1902); his form dropped right off after the 1894-5 series and he didn't play in 1896 (and was even dropped by Surrey for a bit).

    The Records and Milestones thread

    Who's picking Walsh ahead of Marshall/Garner/Ambrose/Holding? It's not even obvious he's first reserve with Roberts/Bishop/Croft also available.

    Pre-WWII Draft

    I was wondering if any living Test cricketers would be eligible, but apparently not (Ronald Draper, whose Test career ended in March 1950, being closest).
