Blimey, this is a tough one. So many greats to choose from. I keep changing my mind.

Sir Frank Worrell

With apologies to Hanif, Simpson, Dexter, May, Procter, Lindsay, Evans, Mahmood, Statham, Tyson, Snow and others

My computer at home had issues so no way of picking.

Will take Frank Tyson if he hasn't been picked already.

A nice versatile team so far:

- A bowling attack with RF, RFM, LFM, SLA, OB, right-arm round
- over 14,000 first class wickets
- numbers 7-11 have 110 first class centuries
- Worrell, Jackson and Rhodes can bat anywhere required

Still looking for a keeper and some more batsmen. And maybe a modern quick.
