Jamee appears to have too many Aussies.

Jamee you are only allowed one Australian in either team since you have been allocated 3 West Indians in your team.

Also too many South Africans in the ODI team. You'll have to retract the selections of

HAYDEN

and

KALLIS

^^ **** - I was sure he debuted earlier than that - would certainly taken him over Akhtar if I'd bothered to check. :(

Reckon you have a pretty good team forming there. The fact you only need one more New Zealander when you have gotten two as strong as Vettori (not the best spinner but one of the best lower order bats there is) and Bond (one of the best quicks of the era).

Am interested to see how this team turns out.

Was wondering how long Hayden would remain available, toyed with the idea of picking him but I think I'll leave Australia to later as only 4 players can be selected from their Test teams now.

My ODI team will end up as one of the worser outfits but I'm pleased with how my test side is coming along. Was actually hoping to pick up Ryder as my third New Zealander but you got in before me and I had to change strategy. ;)
