The final of the charity series was simmed days ago, but I've been preoccupied with a guest since then.

Would be interesting to see if there is a balance of batsmen and bowlers in a most capped XI. I'll have a dig around the stats.

EDIT: Here we go, of those who are available to us...

Capped XI
H Mørk (wk) - 25 caps
PE Young - 45 caps
AP Cloete - 61 caps
CR Butler - 21 caps
DA Kearsley - 17 caps
MJ Robbins - 15 caps
LA Camps - 29 caps
NS Hoy - 9 caps
DM Kennett - 24 caps
KS Wright - 29 caps
NS Pickup (c) - 51 caps

12th Man: T Mamesh - 9 caps

Goff (56 caps), Fitzy (43 caps) & Toogod (9 caps) unavailable for charity series. Twyman (35), Sanders (28), Moon (28), Taylor (23), Verghese (19), Maddocks (16), Hingston (12) and Krkode (12) all in retirement village.

Looks fine for me to replace the CW Bar side. :)

Hang on, shouldn't we sum the Test caps and ODI caps?

I figured since this isn't an OD game that the ODI players shouldn't be considered.
But consider: that's basically our Test side. At least with some ODI players we're getting some rotation. The Uncapped XI consists of players who has not been capped at either level, right?

I actually can't remember if it does! xD But alright, I'll play with it. The downside is that ODI players get a dramatically higher amount of games, thus shunting test regulars down the order a bit - notably the lack of openers for the longer day with the likes of Camps, Markus and Malone all coming in.

Capped XI (ODI+Test)
PE Young - 71 caps
RJ Malone - 53 caps
AP Cloete - 125 caps
CR Butler - 79 caps
I Markus - 51 caps
AP Chaulk (wk) - 69 caps
MJ Robbins - 88 caps
LA Camps - 122 caps
NS Hoy - 50 caps
KS Wright - 59 caps
NS Pickup (c) - 140 caps

12th & 13th: Halsey & Kennett - 39 caps

Wasn't really sure on what the order should be.

Unavailable: Goff (158), Twyman (91), Moon (76), Sanders (59), RG Verghese (56), Fitzy (51), Taylor (47).

Seamers bowling order listed; all to be used in very short bursts to maximise their impact. If someone bowls Harmisons, get them off as soon as is possible. Preferably to be shot - there are enough gun bowlers here for us not to waste time with offdays in the hope of a jaffa. Spinners to be used as and when the situation dictates - turning pitch, desire to strangle (particularly with Davo) or if we need some Ginger magic. Good luck Xavier with the gloves.
Thanks a lot.
