ICC Sim League XI

[SillyCowCorner1]

Round 8 team versus SA at Sabina Park:

1. Sherwin Campbell
2. Richie Richardson (c)
3. Brian Lara
4. Jimmy Adams
5. Carl Hooper
6. Shivnarine Chanderpaul
7. Junior Murray (+)
8. Kenny Benjamin
9. Curtly Ambrose
10. Ian Bishop
11. Courtney Walsh

Kenny Benjamin replaces Phil Simmons. Kenny is best remembered for his 6/66 at Sabina Park. So I am hoping he has almost the same performance in this go.

Holy Crap. I think Danny Morrison might have just single-handedly knocked the Aussies out of the comp.

see what new zealand can do when they're simulated without the mental block against Australia

I had 3 spinners the last game or the game before, didn't I? I got Prasad there now for Kapoor.

EDIT: Sorry, saw I played the same side. Replace Chatterjee with Kapoor please.

[Magrat Garlick]

Tbh I had tipped Murali to steamroll the Windies in R7. SL have been rather unlucky & most likely would do a lot better if this tourney was replayed.

GAS's team:

Kirsten
Hudson
Kallis
Cronje
Rhodes
McMillan
Richardson
Pollock
de Villiers
Adams
Donald
