Will do a proper right up later but happy with how this side turned out even if it perhaps lacks some of the star power of other teams

Was a pleasant surprise - searched his name and he didn't come up but fits side well wanted a gun new ball bowler with Rice and Dev still as 3rd and 4th seamers.

Don't know much about Clive Rice. Overall though your composition is looking remarkably similar to what mine will be.

True. Was justifying having him at 6 instead of his most usual spot at 7. As I said, 6-8 are flexible.

The batting order is very aggressive indeed and who better to anchor it than The Wall? Like the look of 3 left handers in there, chief among whom is The Prince, of course.
2 of the top 8 pacers of all time and a personal favourite speedster to round out the trio. A containing spinner like Underwood fits really well as the support act and he can also lead the attack in the subcontinent, as he did in 1976-77. Quite like that my fifth bowler has a 10fa in India too.

Whatever it takes!!!
You obviously have one vote in the bank already.

Simpson is basically a right handed version of Katich with a full career.

I've picked Miller, Faulkner, and Ashwin along with handy part-time bowlers in Dexter, Barrington, and Smith. That should be worth a vote from HB the allrounder king.
