The ATG World XI's game

NUFAN

Y no Afghanistan flag
Pretty funny how a fair few of us were tipping the World E team to be a surprise and they were the only team to not score a point.

World A vs World B is going to be a cracking quarter final.

Are the QFs going to be 3 match series or something? Are points for first innings going to still count in the event that the series finishes level?

Don't Think the fist team would change, but feel that Lillee would grauate up to the second team, Pollock too if the selections were done over today.
 

NUFAN

Y no Afghanistan flag
How long ago was it that we did this again? 6 months or so?

I'm happy with most of the top teams but feel the bottom 10 teams could vary quite a bit.

Reasons for changes:
- different forum members voting
- some suggested players were not added early enough
- the order where we constructed the teams meant that on occasions some players were suited more.
- draft threads have 'unearthed' a few forgotten players.

When one looks at the 1st team that we chose, does any player stand out to anyone as not deserving to be included and who should that person be replaced by?

1. J hobbs 2. L hutton 3. D bradman 4. V richards 5. S tendulkar 6. G sobers 7. A gilchrist+ 8. I khan 9 s. Warne 10. M marshall 11. G mcgrath

Good effort with those 8 teams kyear.

As far as the '1st team' is concerned - I don't think that it has any weak links at all.

However, the usual suspects do knock at the door - Sunny Gavaskar, Brian Lara, Graeme Pollock, Alan Knott, Richard Hadlee, Dennis Lillee, and Muttiah Muralitharan,

Special mention to Barry Richards, George Headley, Greg Chappell, Walter Hammond, Jacques Kallis, Curtly Ambrose, Michael Holding, Wasim Akram, Sydney Barnes, and Bill O'Reilly.
