That sounds good to me as long as we're voting for the best teams to give them more votes. Not for the worst teams so they get demoted. Pedantic I know, but slightly less controversial.

However, I'm really interested to see who you will pick as your batting allrounder for the No.7 spot Jager. But I won't guess out loud.......
I've got a plan in my head! It's a little left-field though...

Cool!

BTW Here is some footage of Kanhai coming in at 2 for 27 during the 1975 World Cup against Australia. It's his last international match I think (check out the greying hair), but the square drive off Jeff Thomson is something else. Richie Benaud's laconic remark in response is quite amusing.

Cracker of a shot; one thing I've noticed watching the footages over the years that at every important moments of every game, somehow Richie Benaud ends up in the commentary box
