Would pick Broad over Anderson without a second thought

Yeah, but playing 1 innings to ram home the advantage which your team already has is less notable than consistently fighting to win it through the series (and doing so, once). How was far from impressive and I retain doubts aplenty about his long-term future at Test level, but he was IMO more impressive than Strauss this series.

and I didn't say I would definitely pick Southee, I just thought it was a bit harsh he didn't get considered when IMO he was no worse than Anderson who missed the first test and was hardly dominant in the third.

Oh, Southee came out of the series with far more credit than Anderson, and actually looking at the above post dunno WTF I was thinking picking Anderson over Broad anyway, but the business of Series XIs isn't exclusively about that.

What we would do to get another Hadlee. Or even a Bond who does all three too, even though he tends to only swing it one way.

Think most people would quite like that too TBF.

Offer any cricket team in history a Hadlee and I'd not imagine you'd get a "no" anywhere.

yeah... if u like darude, there is a compilation series you should check out called "Euro Club Hits" --

it's pretty clear that dance music is coming back around the world -- just check the recent big American hip-hop and R&B hits which are clear rip-offs of the european dance style.....

here's the direct iTunes link to the "Euro Club Hits" series.....
