[pardus]

More than 9 hours since the last pick. I am going ahead with mine.

Alvin Kallicharan

India v West Indies at Bangalore, Nov 22-27, 1974

So this is how my XI looks. Choosing Gavaskar as the captain (a pretty shrewd fella).
Marshall & McGrath would be the primary fast bowlers, supported by Gillespie & Sobers.
Harbhajan would be the main spinner, supported by Steve Smith (& Sobers if needed).

Great team though surely Sobers should bat ahead of Smith?

This is the second time I've seen people putting Barnes in the middle order in drafts lately. Am I wrong in thinking he was a gifted specialist opener?
