I too got it wrong then. I thought we had to pick 1 from each criteria and the rest has to be picked from other countries.Yup, sorry for the misunderstanding RH.
Milenko said no restrictionOk, we'll kick this off now. As a reminder the rules (with a few changes to clear things up) are that players eligible are:
- an Australian test player who has played the majority of his test matches as a opening batsman.
- a Pakistani test player whose dominant role in tests has been as a batsman from 3 to 6. To be eligible, they may not have played the majority of their tests as an opening batsman or as a wicketkeeper, and must have their batting be better than their bowling.
- a English test player who is an all-rounder in tests. An all-rounder is defined as someone with a batting average of over 26 and a bowling average of under 34 – with more than 1 wicket per test match taken.
- a South African test player who has played the majority of his test matches as a wicketkeeper.
- a West Indian test player whose dominant roles in tests has been as a fast bowler or medium-pacer. To be eligible, their bowling must be better than their batting; Sobers and Gomez are ineligible.
- an Indian test player whose dominant role in tests has been as a spinner, and has more than 1 wicket per match.
- Any test player from Sri Lanka, New Zealand, Zimbabwe, Bangladesh, Ireland, or Afghanistan.
A test cricketer's country of nationality is to be determined by the country that they played the most test cricket for. In the event of a tie, that cricketer is eligible of either team. You are not restricted to one of each category or anything like.
- Anyone who has not played test cricket.

Yes there's no restriction, thanks all for clarifying.You just need to pick players who are eligible. You could pick 11 players from Ireland or Afghanistan if you wish.
