I'd be tempted to go with some of the greats of yore who had their salad days before moving pictures. WG Grace & SF Barnes would be the two I'd most like to see. Then I think I'd go for Waqar Younis & BC Lara as they're my favourite bowler & batter respectively.

Are we playing a Double Wicket Tournament or just two bowlers bowling their *** off all day to two batsmen ? I think at the end of the day we wont be able to differentiate between the bowlers and batsmen.
