Just tried to figure out who's "winning".

My honest opinion is that it's too close to call as it's been a strong accurate Draft by everyone thus far.

Interesting draft this, so many ATG bowlers have been tabooed!

Wonder if we're about to lose ATG batsmen...

Note the low grip on Walcott's bat.

Not much left-hand happening there I'd imagine. All brute force from the WI great.
