Urgh. Thought I'd get away with leaving these a round. Both (especially Goddard) insanely underrated.

The father of modern swing bowling added. Absolutely delighted with that - a real favourite. The first bowler, as far as records show, to deliberately use the seam to deceive the batsmen, and has a FC double-hundred which is always more than handy at 8. Love the bowling attack - probably even better than my bowling attack in Season 1, which I'm delighted with.

Thanks Himannv. You have an awesome bowling attack!

Just wondering whether Barrington and Greg Chappell should be swapped around??

Barrington
No.3 = 77.23 (27 innings)
No.4 = 59.17 (32 innings)

Greg Chappell
No.3 = 43.39 (24 innings)
No.4 = 59.12 (53 innings)

Himannv · 11-08-2012, 05:11 AM

Interesting. I always used to think Barrington's best position was at 4. Those stats don't lie though and I reckon I'll switch them around.

So did I.

But having selected Greg Chappell during my last two Drafts I knew that he preferred batting after his brother Ian.

Monk · 11-08-2012, 05:31 AM

Abbott's XI

1. Sunil Gavaskar
2.
3. Ian Chappell (c)
4. Brian Lara
5. Keith Miller (vc)
6. Frank Woolley
7. Kapil Dev
8.
9.
10. John Snow
11. Derek Underwood

Woolley's average does him no justice. Those who know cricket history know how good he was. Gun slow bowler and fielder as well.

watson · 11-08-2012, 05:33 AM

With Hutton and Hayden opening the innings it will be interesting to see where KK bats Trevor Goddard.

No.6 and play the extra bowler? Or No.7 and play the extra batsman?
