smalishah84:- Joel Garner, Hashim Amla, Courtney Walsh, Javed Miandad, Mohammad Yusuf, Chaminda Vaas, Rahul Dravid, Stephen Fleming, Romesh Kaluwitharana, Gavin Larsen, Upul Chandana.

So, my final XI then, ended up being pretty decent

Hashim Amla
Romesh Kaluwitahrana+
Rahul Dravid
Javed Miandad
Stephen Fleming*
Mohammad Yousuf
Upul Chandana
Chaminda Vaas
Gavin Larsen
Joel Garner
Courtney Walsh

A decent outfit and to make sure that they punch above their weight Stephen Fleming to lead them

**** hot outfit. Amla, Miandad, Vaas and Garner all particularly good ODI players.

Will be even better if Fleming can work on his tan this summer...

Play Fleming as an opener instead of Romesh. Yousuf is probably a place too low for a player of his class.

AWTA, you need a proper finisher as well imo, even though you have Chandana. Gun bowling though.

Romesh will blast the runs in the first 15 overs. It is easy to forget that Jayasuriya wouldn't have been quite as effective if Kalu wasn't at the other end IMO. Also a very quick wk.

Yousuf can bat up the order if need be but I don't see the need for him to come ahead of Dravid or Miandad. Chandana can smash a few good blows to up the rate and Vaas can do some slogging too. The tail is a proper tail with Garner Walsh and Larsen but all three are tremendously economical bowlers who will give nothing away in any conditions.

yeah, my spinner is my only weak link, but the other 4 are sure to put tremendous pressure on the opposition.

Pretty good batting but for ODIs your bowling will be walloped. I can see Jayasuriya slashing Marshall for 6 over point in the first 15 overs

Your middle order is damn awesome though. Ponting, Kohli and Yuvi can wreak havoc

I know its not the best, but you are talking like its Debashish Mohanty and Abey Kuruvilla

I asked this before too. How did Holding win a World Cup if he was such a **** ODI bowler? Its a genuine question.

Aldo, Micheal Holding was a good ODI bowler but Marshall and Steyn will have to hide behind Holding there.

As I said earlier, you have a fantastic batting unit but your bowlers will find it a bit difficult to adjust there in shorter format.

Indeed, I am relying on my batting much much more than my bowlers.
