Well rounded side with no real weaknesses, I like it. Middling by standards of the draft though.

I could take Azhar Ali but I will go with Cheteshwar Pujara and have Dravid open.

Middling unit. May be a 7/10

So did Worrell...

Gordon Greenidge
David Warner
Ken Barrington
Steve Smith (p/t - 7)
Joe Root (p/t - 6)
Andy Flower (wk)

Richie Benaud (5)
Ray Lindwall (1)
Clarrie Grimmett (3)
Dennis Lillee (2)
Pretty happy with my side - ideally wanted a better opener then Warner but Warner does average almost 49 and both Greenidge and Warner could take the game away from you in a session. If either was to fail early have a very good middle order to follow and batting depth with Botham, Benaud and Lindwall. However, we still have 5 bowlers who all average under 29 and in Grimmett and Benaud a great spin attack to attack from both ends if the pitch starts to spin from early on. Lindwall and Lillee a formiddable opening bowling pair and hope at 7 Botham can provide a bit of magic when its needed. Importantly too whilst Botham's statistics may not be amazing I think there is reason to believe he'd flourish in an ATG versus situation, worth stating Botham's average rises to 40 with the bat at number 7 too.
