Gonna guess some XIs from everyone's first 6 picks

Imran Khan, Ricky Ponting, Joel Garner, Gordon Greenidge, Michael Holding, Clive Lloyd
Reckon this is World Cup winners. And at some point you're going to end up picking Liam Dawson

Kapil Dev, Clyde Walcott, Ravindra Jadeja, Victor Trumper, Alec Bedser, Peter May
Kapil Dev was 2nd pick of the entire draft so must be important. Something to do with all rounders? Trumper took some first class wickets. Dunno.

Adam Gilchrist, Ravi Ashwin, Kagiso Rabada, Shakib Al Hasan, Mitchell Johnson
Something to do with batting left handed.


Sydney Barnes, Allan Border, Greg Chappell, Alan Davdison, Allan Donald, WG Grace
I think this is 'has to share a name with someone else in the team'. He's got plenty of Allan/Alans and he can easily find an extra Chappell or Grace later on. Someone to pick Ian and make him select Trevor IMO.

Richard Hadlee, Steve Smith, Waqar Younis, Bob Simpson, Younis Khan, Courtney Walsh
This might be something to do with having a spell out from Tests. Smith had a famous involuntary break and Simpson and Younis both came back after retirement.

Pat Cummins, Elysse Perry, AB De Villiers, Frank Worrell, Bob Willis, Graeme Smith
Nah no idea.

Malcolm Marshall, Jacques Kallis, Ken Barrington, Ian Bishop, Les Ames, Jonny Wardle
Could be 'people who never captained'.

Glenn McGrath, Wasim Akram, Ian Botham, Wally Hammond, Kane Williamson, Rohan Kanhai
Minnow bashers XI :ph34r:

Garfield Sobers, Muttiah Muralitharan, Shaun Pollock, Geoffrey Boycott, Jasprit Bumrah, Inzamam Ul-Haq
Piss off this is just a good team

Jack Hobbs, Viv Richards, Steve Waugh, Kumar Sangakkara, Ben Stokes, Derek Underwood
Yeah I'm properly running out of ideas now

Dale Steyn, Sunil Gavaskar, Dennis Lillee, Neil Harvey, Clarrie Grimmett, Shiv Chanderpaul
If it weren't for Dale Steyn I would go for a 'mardy old gits' angle

Shane Warne, Brian Lara, Matthew Hayden, Rahul Dravid, Matt Prior, Mohammed Asif
Got to be about playing in the 2000s. Why else would you make Asif your first choice bowler. GIMH also gave me an angry react for picking KP.

Bill O'Reilly, Denis Compton, Ray Lindwall, Everton Weekes, Graeme Pollock, Barry Richards
I think this is something to do with a limit on test caps. Everyone except Compton played less than they should. Probably a total # of test caps across the whole team to account for Compton.

Joe Root, Sachin Tendulkar, Javed Miandad, Mushtaq Mohammed, Wes Hall, Conrad Hunte
People who have been held afloat by umpires :ph34r:

Len Hutton, Herbert Sutcliffe, Fred Trueman, Jim Laker, Michael Clarke, George Headley
'Professionals who got unfair **** from old-fashioned press hacks'
 

GIMH

Norwood's on Fire
My actual reason for picking Asif is probably one you’ll understand, though be interested to see if I missed someone better.

Asif was seriously good mind you.
