Am pretty happy with this. All but my first plan worked out Great. Might just be the Best batting line-up I ever made and I think the bowling is really strong too with 6 options.

Really well balanced side... Excellent new ball bowlers good first change and medium pace as required from Contractor. Two left arm spinners of either variety as the main spinners, backed up by leg spin from Ken Barrington and offspin from Aravinda and Shoaib Malik. Lots of class in the batting with the right mix of defensive and attacking batsmen right through the batting order with Davidson at 8.

So, @trundler in R3 changed it to Sanga from Williamson?

 

[Thala_0710]

So this @CricAddict list is what I saw, if Willamson is available and Sanga is not then I'll pick Williamson

I'd promote Harris ahead of the spinners there.
