If England are playing an ATG Ashes series against an Aussie side containing O'Reilly and Warne then I'll want Maurice Leyland in the team;
3. Hammond 4. Compton 5. Leyland 6. May

Hammond
Barrington Compton Botham for me as well. Wanted to include Ranji, but Botham adds a bit more to the whole equation with his bowling and fielding. Botham, one of the most brutal batsman of all time when on song. |

Hammond
Barrington May Botham Very close choice between Botham/Compton/Pietersen (yes, I'm serious about the latter) because it will make for a very long tail if Botham is finally selected at no.6.

Hammond
Barrington Pietersen Botham Love it because i keep imagining a scenario in which Barrington completely wears out the opposition by occupying the crease for 8 hours or so, and when they finally get him out, in walks Pietersen. What a lovely contrast it would provide |
