Don't know how I missed this, and don't know how we chose Shaun Pollock over Procter.

Only other vote I would have varied from is Cameron over Waite.

Have a class for the next two hours. Will count the votes after that. @Northerner please tell me which one I should count by then; or else I will go with the latter.

Definitely think the keeper is dependent on the makeup of the rest of the side but I'll punt for Cameron

This is such an annoying side for me as I want to include 4 openers on merit – maybe even 5 counting Jimmy Cook – and that's not counting Amla or Taylor!
