You may call me Liam, Scotland have played in the C&G for the past 3 seasons so Hamish would do nicely as an overseas player, plus he's got a very scottish name. :)

On that basis, but for the typo you could have Scott Styris.

Probably with New Zealand's blessing.

Kallis can play the sheet-anchor, but he can also play the aggressor.

I think he got an unfairly bad press a couple of years ago when it seemed that he was having to play the 'backs to the wall' role because of inadequacies elsewhere in the side.

Dravid? Well, if you have that many flair players as India tend to field (great to see His Most Regal Left-Handedness playing well again), you want a bit of stodge to add stability.

Can't make a trifle without sponges, you know.

I think the World Cup last year demonstrated his complete lack of ability to play an agressive innings.

You're going to criticise a man who averaged 80.83 at a strike rate of almost 84. Geez.
