Wondering who Cabinet96 will choose for his 3rd seamer?
Massive apologies. I hadn't realised Cevno picked when he had.
Alec Bedser
It's alright Cabinet I thought of reminding you but thought you were busy

And finally Ian Chappell to pull and hook all bouncers; needed to strengthen slip as well
1. Bill Ponsford
2. Arthur Morris
3. Ian Chappell
4. Eddie Paynter
5. Clive Lloyd *
6. Frank Woolley
7. Les Ames +
8. Ray Lindwall
9. Dennis Lillee
10. Fred Trueman
11. Clarrie Grimmett
Best bowling attack, very good openers and keeper/cordon. On the other hand middle order lacks an alpha male. Excellent team.
Yeah, agree that the batting order just lacks someone I'd back to really stand up and dominate at this level. Very good team though. Will benefit from a 'rate the teams from best to worst' scoring system rather than a 'pick your winner' IMO.

Good pick Mr. Jager. Very nice. Love the English basis of the side.
After having my team slandered to death, I have been forced to revise my strategy :p I pick Matt Prior as the best wicketkeeper batsman going around by far
Jager's XI (currently)
1. Alec Stewart
2. Douglas Jardine
3. Neil Harvey
4. Sachin Tendulkar
5. Dudley Nourse
6. Doug Walters
7. Matt Prior
8. Wilfred Rhodes
9. Harold Larwood
10. Curtly Ambrose
11. Waqar Younis
Would probably bat Larwood ahead of Rhodes, and you've got it bang on.
Great idea for a voting system actually.Quote:

The current system is voting on the three strongest teams out of the twelve in a poll. Does anyone have a preference/idea about this?
Hopefully Clive Lloyd will step up :D
Surprised by Jager!
Jager Meister's original concept was for the first 6 best teams to get points. I think that if we take our 6 favourite teams and rate them 1-6 then that would be an alright thing.
I don't really want to tell Andy, or whoever, that their team is the worst and should come last. Not that Andy's team IS the worst and should come last, but you get what I mean.
What was surprising? :pQuote:
