Really fun doing this draft after a long break. I kinda gave myself an additional challenge of drafting chronologically each year being the next year of the previous pick. That is one tasty side and a great attack for all conditions. Even the SC dustbowls, these guys will make something happen with swing, reverse swing, skid etc. And the spinner will get something out of even the SENA pitches. And there are enough backup offies to keep it tight or even bowl match winning spells on dustbowls. Some very sharp cricketing minds in that batting order too, with Sourav captaining and Vaughan being the on-field tactician and supported by Gilchrist and Dravid. Also having the GOAT wicketkeeper bat shores up my side even more. :)
