kingkallis to make his pick, imo. HB had his chance, and its not like kingkallis knew he'd get two shots in a row when he was making his last pick.

Love my team.. Batting depth.. Bowling.. Everything there.. Except for a leggie, perhaps. Maybe I can open with STollmeyer who bowls decent leggies and has a pretty good FC record as a leggie, instead of Merchant. Otherwise, love the solidity in the side.. ATGs include Hadlee, Hammond, Pollock.. Sub 20 bowling avg bowlers in Briggs and Barnes, Awesomeness in Dhoni, Allrounder in Watson, Walters and Cowper.. No real weakness. Extremely satisfied. :)

12th man -Allan Rae

Can pick Rae instead of bland and push Rhodes down to 6th as and when the situation demands.

The USP of the team is the bowling attack with Donald,Tyson,Ambrose,Grace,Peel and Rhodes sufficient to scare the best of the batting line ups.

Is the 12th man gonna be included for consideration in the voting thread or is it gonna be the first 11 only?

International 12th Man
My final selection is Ian Redpath who will be a good batting back up and also a very good fielder to come on as the 12th man if needs be.

1st Test: South Africa v Australia at Johannesburg, Dec 23-28, 1966 | Cricket Scorecard | Cricinfo.com

Super Pskov's final line-up

Sunil Gavaskar - RHB 51.12
John Edrich - LHB 43.54
Younis Khan - RHB 50.09
Neil Harvey - LHB 48.41
Steve Waugh - RHB 51.06, RM 37.44, Captain
Maurice Leyland - LHB 46.06
Jeff Dujon - RHB 31.94, 277 dismissals in 81 tests, Wicketkeeper
Alan Davidson - LHB 24.59, LFM 20.53
Shane Warne - RHB 17.32, LS, 25.41
Michael Holding - RHB 13.78, RF 23.68
Neil Adcock - RHB 5.40, RF 21.10

12th Man - Ian Redpath RHB 43.45

Three things I like a lot about the team are

1. the balance of the batting line-up with every player in a position they played a lot of test cricket in and were successful in, plus the opportunity for left/right partnerships all the way down the order
2. The batting depth with players capable of scoring hundreds down to Warne at 9 (okay he never actually did, but you know what I mean...)
3. The variety of the bowling attack with Davidson as left armer, Holding's supreme pace, Adcock's height and bounce and Warne's guile.

I always have a soft spot for Redpath as he was my dads favourite Cricketer when he was a kid.

I think I've said it before, but I love your bowling attack pskov!

Other Interesting Statistics

- Gregory still has the 3rd fastest Test 100 in terms of balls faced
- Woolley's first class bowling average was 19.87
- Taking out Gregory's post 1925 performances where he was hit by injuries, he averages 39.88 with the bat and 27.94 with the ball from 18 Tests

Strengths of Team

- Fielding - Gregory is among the greatest slip fielders ever, Lloyd was brillant in both the covers and slips and Woolley was one of if not the greatest fielder of his era

- Good crisis Batting - Hussey is usually at his best in bad situations, Flower was used to batting in situations where his batting support was minimal, Lloyd was one of the experts in getting the most productive partnerships out of tailenders and Gregory's batting style is similar to Gilchrist's 80 years after him, Pollock is also an exceedingly good 8 (averaging over 30)

- Openning Pair - Morris was considered by no less than Bradman to be the finest left handed opener up to 2000 and picked him in his All Time World and All Time Australia XI's and Haynes although capable of the spectacular was mainly a brillant solid anchor to the attacking opener at the other end (usually Greenidge)

- Twelth Man - Mushtaq Mohammad is a good enough All Rounder to be an adequate replacement for anyone in the XI with the exception of Andy Flower

- Capatincy - Lloyd was one of the great captains and should get the very most out of my pace attack

- Bowling Options - This attack has 6 frontline bowling options and with Woolley's ability to bowl both medium pace and spin gives Lloyd 4 seam options and 3 spin options to use.

- Left Hand Batsman - Many bowlers including many great players struggle against LHB, having 6 left handers in the top 7 will take full advantage of this weakness
