Ok lemme get rid of the Wickey one.

So how about this? --> Top order ( Top 6 ) players dismissed by Warne & Muralitharan

Yup, going to be very interesting to say the least! Alright, draft order to come. Is everyone clear on the rules?

To clarify, you can choose which clause you use each selection you make - you have to announce it with your choice though.

Are there really 12 decent cricketers among those surnames? I have my doubts.

Therefore, could be unfair to certain participants. I hate to think that someone would end up with an off-spinner from the Local Pub Second XI because they had no choice.

Also, Truman is the wrong spelling. How pedantic are we?

Not pedantic about spelling, I say.

Johnson, Taylor, Truman and Jackson all have players, but I think we should do first names of the cricketer as well - that includes Arthur and Garfield as well without checking.

If someone could make a list tonight of possible players, it would really help me - unfortunately I'm out all of tonight and most of tomorrow - if not I'll do it tomorrow night.
