Heath Streak has already been drafted Marc

Very happy to get the quality of Graeme Pollock to add to my batting lineup which is now probably the best in the whole draft.

Courtney Walsh is quite possibly the best first-change bowler anyone has in this draft thread! The fact that both he and my master legspinner Benaud are capable of bowling loong spells makes my bowling attack look even better! New ball is going to be shared by Roberts and Steyn.

Weldone XI so far:
Kumar Sangakkara
Greg Chappell
Vijay Hazare
Rashid Latif+
Richie Benaud*
Andy Roberts
Dale Steyn
Courtney Walsh

Reserves: Irfan Pathan, Paul Harris, Junaid Siddique, Darren Pattinson

Blooming heck, can't believe I got Lloyd. Think I made a mistake getting so many players at the beginning, the prices seem to have gone down now a few people aren't submitting.

Anyhow, I'm pretty happy with my team. An exciting batting line-up, a world class bowling line-up, and Pollock really strengthens the tail. Plus some great captains and thinkers in there too.

Now that I look back at my team, its not too shabby, 3 ATG batsmen, arguably a top 5 fast bowler and the fourth or fifth best spin bowler of all time. Nissar was supposedly seriously fast and good in his day and in seriuosly under rated, A.B is a real talent and Toshack is a more than serviceable second option medium fast bowler, look up his record. Still have a few holes, but line up is solid and the slip cordon looks deadly (especially if I can get a keeper and allow A.B to join them)
