Why not have Botham in the side, I remember reading an article in Wisden about a match against Sri Lanka where Botham was bowling offpsin. I think he picked up a load of wickets as well.

Wow what an innings! In a belaboured 370 in 147.1 overs by England, our hero scored at a strike rate of 100.00 and scored teothirds of his runs in boundaries!!

AND under the Ponting ruling, he would never have been out in the first place because it was a sub who illegally caught him. Cheating ******** *****!!!
