All Time England XI game

[Starfighter]

Bob Barber
George Hirst

 

[watson]

Douglas Jardine (needed so as to give Lockwood a kick-up the backside once in a while)

George Allen


(Quite like the F-team and reckon that it would beat D and E and give C a run for its money)

D'Oliveira
Allen

Billy Barnes
Johnny Briggs

Has Jardine really not been picked yet?

Edrich can do 5th bowling duties so :

Jardine for the last batting spot.
Hendrick for the last bowling sport (Lockwood/Peel are reasonable at 8/9)

doug v basil was tough.

I have a question, were the Allen picks George or Gubby?
Just while I get confirmation

- Name the England G XI opening batting pair
- Select the G teams keeper
- Name the Eng G XI number 3 batsman

I'm guessing they were Sir George Oswald Browning 'Gubby' Allen.

 

[jimmy101]

Sorry Nufan, should have specified. Gubby for mine.

jimmy: Thorpe was picked in C

Strauss
P Richardson
Prior
GE Tyldesley

I wonder when the next left-arm pace bowler will make it. I might bring up Fred Rumsey at some point, but will likely be picking George Hirst soon. Sidebottom's a potential late team pick too.
