Difficult and limited choice leaving my keeper till last - I did toy with the idea of going for Brendon McCullum on the basis he's batting left handed when he reverse sweeps, but figured that must be against the spirit of the game even if I could argue it complies with the letter of the rules - so it's Godfrey Evans forgotten deputy for me - Dick Spooner - excellent keeper and, for a few seasons, a highly effective batsman
