If this happened 50 years ago it'd probably have been settled with a fist fight in the english dressing room

I wonder who would emerge as victorious in a fight between all of the English side tbh. None of them particularly strike me as the kind who'd be capable of knocking your block off.

I reckon Swanny would be a nutter. Maybe Prior? Got some rage in him, he does

Gotta be Bres. Guy is built like the proverbial house of bricked **** and has a bit of the Northern grumpiness about him.

Ian Bell, been discussed before, he actually is a decent amateur boxer.

Yeah, he has the appearance of a blacksmith tbh. But by that I mean he looks like he could swing a hammer pretty damn hard, but doesn't really appear to have the mean streak required to really lamp someone. That said, I'd rather not find that out first-hand.

AWTA that Swann could be a bit of a nutter though, him failing to give someone a good beating probably wouldn't be through a lack of trying.

Strauss surely? EDIT: Forgot about Bres. Tremlett as well.

This actually seems like a fun exercise.

South Africa - Hard to tell. Graeme Smith or ABdV (Rugby background etc). Maybe Kallis in his youth or the short man Boucher.

New Zealand - Jacob Oram? Dunno.

India - Yusuf Pathan

Windies - Most obvious one. Chris Gayle.

Australia - Siddle!

Sri Lanka - Fernando or Mathews

Pakistan - Afridi, Misbah..?

KP's a big guy, tbf. 6' 4"?

Coulda been a decent flnaker for Natal in another life.

Fancy Finn against anyone in the current team tho, since he's hit the weights he's developed some decent guns and a good big 'un usually beats a good little 'un.

Fancy Tremmers against anyone in the sport, tbh. Bloke's a ****ing house.

Bust Jimmeh's ribs when they were sparring at a training camp before the 09/10 Ashes IIRC.
